I'd still take the raptor
The Elise is a neat car, they destroy in autox with Hoosiers. They basically never leave first gear haha
Damn....mine is an Exige.

What's not to love about an Elise and a Raptor? The Elise looks fun. I'd recommend reading an excerpt from Doug Demuro's book Plays With Cars about his adventure driving his Elise across country immediately after purchasing it. I'm sure there are quite a few things you can relate to after your journey.
Exige.

Exige.
Even better! Early NA model or SC?

My bad, didn't look close enough.
But can confirm would still drive the raptor. Nothing against the lotus, as they are crap tons of fun.
I have just always wanted a raptor, for reasons

2010 so, SC. 240hp The full model of the car is 2010 Lotus Exige S240

That's basically why I wanted one too!

Love the Lotus! That's a bucket list car for me. Any plans to track it?
I'd like to but sadly, my desire to track this car will most likely have the same result as my desire to track my R1. I'll never get to do it. Maybe in 10 years when the kids are out of the house.

Intradusting. I bet the mini wins with having a smaller wheel base and being a touch lighter than a compact.

Wheel base: 2,470 mm (97.1 in)
Weight 1,150 kg (2,535 lb) (Cooper)
1,210 kg (2,668 lb) (Cooper S)Compact:
Wheel base 2,700 mm (106.3 in)
Weight 1,175 kg (2,590 lb)−1,290 kg (2,840 lb)

Visiting family in Wausau this weekend, made a Menard's run and apparently didn't get the Volvo in gear properly when I parked and it rolled into a Saturn. Awesome, the only downside of a manual transmission... it broke the glass headlight lens and scuffed the bumper cover on mine and scuffed the plastic door on the Vue. I barely had 5 minutes in the store by the time an officer came and did a report. Question for people that have had a situation like this. I have a 500$ deductible, so if the damage is assessed at 2k, do I just get 1500$ and can fix it myself? I do not have a loan.

No handbrake?
It works fine, just my bad habit of not using it from not having a working one on other cars. The maxima one worked but you had to bang on the lever on the caliper to get it to release so it was truly only for emergency use. I will remember to use it now...

Christopher Nolan is a wizard.
I just finished watching Interstellar again.
Phenomenal movie!
Agreed. I should probably watch it again too.

That's too bad.
I was just in the same boat for an insurance claim with my 3-series. Got two high end quotes for ~$2k in damage from body shop friends and called Allstate to make a claim. They said they'd send someone out to look at it if I didn't want to have it repaired by one of their partnered shops. A week went by, they never came. Got a call that said the check was in the mail for the quoted amount minus my $500 deductible. They mentioned having the shop co-written on the check, but it was fully in my name. I cashed it and fixed it for much cheaper. Just be aware that now my rates have gone up because I have a claim on my record. If I were to do it again, I would've fixed it out of pocket.
