I'm speechless....horrified....feel sick....one word - sacrilege

[ptp170]

Have seen this before, Americans...don't you just love them! Bet the power to weight ratio is well fooked now!

[Zebede29]

Its like they come from another PLANET! (americans I mean)

Amazed that more than 1 yank is capable of operating a "stickshift" - you know, multitasking and all that

tsk

[bogie]

"comments on this video are disabled"

Maybe because sticking a video of your own car in youtube is seen as inviting comments, and the elise nerds thought the guy was an idiot to take a lightweight sports car like the elise and load it down with bodywork and filler and a big sound system.

[Bada Bing!]

I wonder why comments are disabled...

I was going to add "way to fcuk up a car dude"

[Monkey boy 1]

No,No,No,No,No,No,No,No,No,No,No,No,No,No,No,No,

There's nothing wrong with not liking it, it's not to my taste either, and a bit of poking fun an banter like on this thread is par the course on a motoring forum, but looking up the guy's main homepage and then descending like a swarm of angry locusts & flaming him all morning is a bit much don't you think?

[Furyous]

Erm, ignoring the fact its an S1, if you take away the lexus lights,ice,and paint it orange, isnt it effectively what Lotus now call the GT3 ?
