Maybe a Noble M400 or an Ariel Atom, but both much more expensive. > [@Baker](#): > > I go on vacation for two weeks and this is what happens?!

That price seems SO high. I paid 4 grand more for my 05 Elise with 1/5 the miles nearly 7 years ago. I realize you put a blower on it but holy shit. ---

it’s great that prices of certain cars are going up. I was having a discussion with some middle manager dudes from Silverwheel, a company that insures hotrods etc., they know that the next market for them is the tuner market but they’re not quite ready to start insuring modified cars yet. However, the guy came right out and said that the company knows that they’ll have to start figuring out K24 swapped civics soon. It will be a good job as a tuner appraiser for insurance companies soon 🙂 ---

Why are prices going up? Did they stop building them? On a side note, serious interest at an agreeable price, just totaled my new car with 1000 miles on it. ---

A couple things happened this weekend. I couldn’t even bring myself to put the for sale sign on it at Euro Car Day. I have decided not to sell it after all. Keeping it 🙂 > [@cretinx](#): > > Why are prices going up? Did they stop building them? > > On a side note, serious interest at an agreeable price, just totaled my new car with 1000 miles on it. Because America. They’re no longer street legal here. If you’re seriously interested in a Lotus, come check mine out first. That way you’ll at least know what you’re getting yourself into before you travel half way across the country to get one. I can help you find a good one too. PM me if you want. ---
