I just got my Elise but snow on the ground so haven't stretched it out yet. My GT3 also under car cover with battery maintainer. Can't wait to get to the track in spring. Did the Elise guys have sport package? How do you compare the GT3 to the Elise on that particular track?

I didn't have a chance to drive an Elise yet, but last year I was driven around the track in one by one of our very capable instructors, and it was stunning. In terms of laptimes it is a mite slower than the GT3, but in terms of driver enjoyment it has everyone jumping for joy. It is a bit more of a momentum car, but it feels so incredibly stable as a passanger. It feels like a finer instrument to be driven in, and jumping from it into a GT3 afterwards made the Pcar seem big, heavy and brutish.

Macfly, you need some clear sidemarkers.
I think blue is my new favorite GT3 color too.
It would be funny if you all got busted for no front license plates.

Mac likes his orange sidemarkers. He's funny like that.
Richard's Blue GT-3 is stunning in person - this was actually the first time I've seen it in the sun. Very pretty!

Orange sidemarkers rule!!!!!!

Yep, I think my car needs that little splash of color, and those funky grey plastic things look so rice! ;-))
Macfly your pictures are awesome!
thank you so much!!! For that lovely compliment I'll share my favorite pic of the month, it's my other car hanging under my picture of Jennifer G for Alias on Sunset. I always love getting buildings, it is soooo good for the ego!!

Shameless plug!
Yeah, sorry 'bout that one!
There is a funny visual skipping stone thing happening in seeing your and Kevin's avatars together, as the shot of Kevin's wing is taken looking north from the ridge in the far distance of your north looking avatar, a sort of join the white GT3 dots and you can see forever on a clear day? Well, you get my gist anyway!
