cant comment on a exgie, but i just bought a S1 elise

with the roof of it's slightly more awkward getting in and out, but not a problem and i had people getting in mine yesterdat that were 6ft tall

the roof on obviously comes off and makes getting in and out easier, the S1 exige doesn't come off.

noise in mine, is fine, wind noise picks up at around 70ish i reckon

fuel ecconmy is awesome

agreed straight line speed is slow compared to a cossie, but cornering is shocking still getting used to that
