It's more like a smaller Caterham.

the lotus elise is the only car i would trade my rx-8 in for, and i would do it in a heartbeat.

 

How about the Exige? You see them around too?

 

I've only seen one Elise, and it was green.

The idea of having a winter beater (or a car if I ever need to transport something) sounds like a good idea. I could have a track car as a daily all year here I think. That's something I might do in the future.

 

There are quite a few wineries in PA. I don't know if any of it's good 'cause I don't drink, but there are a lot of them it seems.

 

There are wineries in all 50 states, only about 3 of those states makes wine that's worth drinking. I also think the only ones that really make much money are in those states as well. That's not to say that the people that own these wineries don't already have a lot of money :D

 

yup. some of the Pa wines are good. im not a big fan of all their wines but the Mount Hope wineries have a couple that i like.

there is also a little vineyard named Nissley Vineyards. They havw a wine called "Naughty Marietta" that i think is outstanding. everyone i have ever shared with loves it also. I think even you Ike- being the wine snob... er Afficiando.. that you are would like it. sadly i have only 1 bottle left. but my sister has promised to get more and share. I only hope the vintage is as good. If you come by sometime ike ill open it

 

Just for kicks I checked out their website, looks like a nice property. I'll try any wine once and I'll certainly take you up on the offer if I'm ever in the area

One thing few people realize about many of these wineries outside of the big 3 wine growing states is that they often don't even make their own wine or use their own grapes. Many times it's just some random California wine that has been relabeled. It's too bad because it really takes advantage of the average consumer who doesn't know how to translate a wine label. It looks like Nissley at least uses the grapes they grow and tries to make a lot of estate grown wines.

 

I saw a yellow Lotus on my commute to work one morning in March. I gave the jackass thumbs up from my car and the bastard rolled his eyes at me and sped off. Small ***** complex I guess - either that or he thought I wanted to race.

After that one encounter in March...I didn't see anymore the rest of the month, and not a single one in April.

But wouldn't you know it...this very afternoon when I was making my way home from work...I saw some tiny light blue alien/fish looking vehicle ferociously speeding on the other side of the highway. It was like 5 car lengths ahead of every other car on that side of the highway - so if you were driving in the left lane like I was you definitely saw it speeding by. Unfortunately I only caught about 5 seconds of eye contact with the car since the driver was going too damn fast for you to really appreciate it (especially from the opposite direction of me), and I knew it was an Elise, but I even slowed down and looked back at those "imitation" Ferrari tail lights to confirm.
