Cheap; Quick; MassiveFactor
(But you'll need another car too)
It's always interesting how people can view cars so very differently. To me this is right at the bottom of the list: impractical, not that quick (compared to other similarly impractical cars) with a boring engine note, no lsd, only adequate brakes for track use, no intercooler so performance drops off and a pain to work on.
I spent a lot of time driving a friends SC on road and track. Definitely not saying you are wrong/I am right, just my take on this car.

Its what makes the world interesting ... we can't all be the same eh!
I've got an Elise Sports Racer as well as the Z4MR. Love both for different reasons, but since I s/c'd the Lotus I feel it is now genuinely quick and makes me giggle every time I drive. As for noise, I have a number of options in the garage ... the Stage 2 is a hoot. As for service, totally agree ... I pay an Indie to keep her running and reliable!
