Lovely!! I keep finding excuses to visit the Porsche/Audi complex where I go for service to drool over a Gentian Blue GT4 on their lot.

I keep thinking it's way out of reach when I remember that I don't HAVE to pay for my kid's education.

Encountered a skittle-y 911 GT3 with ginormous wang on the Bay Bridge this afternoon. Of course he revved it out when changing lanes and gaining an extra 150 feet of position relative to where he was behind me. Got a full-throttle shift, though, which was nice.

I recently picked up this Lotus Elan Plus 2. My garage now has two Lotus cars, this Elan and a Silver Elise.

That's nice so you'll always have a Lotus in your garage while the other is in the shop.

5 years of Lotus ownership and I have yet to send my car to the shop for anything other than standard maintenance. And the cost of upkeep for a Lotus is very reasonable. Much lower than Porsche or Ferrari, and even less than my daily, a BMW.

Indeed. But the electrics are all Lotus and they have held up nicely too.

I think I’m sticking with the Touring. I picked it up from service this morning when i took that pic. I do like the GT4 RS but i already have a Cayman….

Btw two GT’s with major service due this year = $9k total. Oof. I heard people complaining about the C8 Corvette’s service costing $500 the other day…

My vote is you sell them all and beg for the S/T.
