Reviews:
I didn't get it to this speed, mind you, but due to its stability at “slightly higher� than the posted limit I can't see why it wouldn't feel anything but rock steady with added downforce. Pushing it forward is the same Toyota-sourced 1.8-liter four-cylinder as last year's car, complete with Lotus' own engine management system that boosts output to a respectable 190 horsepower. Yes, it doesn't sound like much, and its 138 lb-ft of torque is no doubt even less intimidating to Porsche 911 or Ferrari F430 owners, but a slick shifting six-speed manual and its aforementioned ultra light weight – 1,984 pounds in base trim – turns it into a supercar off the line, and when it comes to tackling the corners it often leaves larger, more powerful sports cars far behind.

It's no secret that few cars come close to matching the Elise's balance on the road or track. It can get a little unwieldy if you're caught napping or simply don't know what you're doing, as its tail loves to wag when pushed beyond its limit of adherence and countersteering measures need to be added quickly. When a little opposite lock is dialed in, mind you, it reacts so perfectly that you'll probably find yourself looking for that point of least resistance more often than no.
