+ 1!! Except the CVT part...I think they feel weird.
The new Altima coupes look like the G35/37 coupes. *drool*
No, its a 20th anniversary GTI. A year older and a little bit more rare than the R32. Its a 1.8T, but I've got it built up pretty well.
Very nice! built up you say? in for details!
Lets see... it has a 2.5 inch turboback exhaust, CAI, short shifter (40% shift throw reduction), APR chip with stock, 91, 93, and 100 octane programs, Neuspeed 28mm rear adjustable swaybar, H&R front swaybar, H&R coilovers, Porsche wheels (18's and staggered, 8.5 inches wide in the front, 10 rear), smoked Helix angel eye projector headlights, smoked sidemarkers, bumper markers and tail lamps.
Hopefully this Christmas I'll get a new turbo inlet pipe and a diverter valve.

My girlfriend's mom just bought a 3.5 Altima Coupe about a month ago or so. All options, with manual transmission.
I'm not really a fan of imports... at all. However, it drives really nicely. Also looks good, and is very comfortable for the front two riders. Plus, it's got quite a good deal of get-up-and-go. What is it? 270HP? Either way, I'd recommend the vehicle for sure, even with the little time I've spent with it.

Lotus's are really fun to drive, but that is it. It sucks everywhere else. Getting in and out of the Elise and Exige is a chore. Starting it is a chore( why bother having a push button start if you have to turn a key anyway?). Plus, you need to hit the unlock/lock button on the fob to start it. You also need the fob to lock it and unlock it. Can't manually push the thing down to lock it. On the Esprit, to release the E-Brake you have to lift the handle, then press the button to release the brake. Except on the S, the 4 banger sounds like crap( then again what N/A 4 banger sounds good?). But, the clutch is super easy. Not super tight like the C6 Corvette. Though I am getting used to the C6's clutch.
The joy of working at my Chevy/Hummer/Lotus dealership.
Gah, I want that car so badly hahaha just too young to get it right now. I am pretty passionate about my cars hey if that dealer is in PA I will be visiting to pick one up in about 3-4 years.
BTW I learned how to use a clutch in my 98' eclipse so I had a rough start w/ my experience with manuals hahaha

IMHO, Lotus's are not worth it. As I said, it is fun to drive, but that isn't enough for me at least to overlook its compromises. You would probably be better off with a Corvette. It has a trunk and is overall more practical to live with. If you don't mind a sedan, I would also recommend a BMW. They're really fun to drive( especially one with the N54 engine
).An Elise isn't worth it if you're buying it for space, comfort, interior features, practicality and for a daily driver. But if you want it for a fun car to drive, then IMO, it's very worth it.

I'll bet that handles like a buckboard wagon on a rutted trail.

I hope you upgraded your brakes... Hmm, also, can you turn the steering wheel lock to lock without the tires rubbing the wheel well?
