You have to be getting a lot less looks, but as far as a commuter car, no doubt the lotus would be miserable. That interior is pretty stripped from what I remember. I don't even remember carpet ...?

You actually don't notice the looks after a couple years. Although ppl to run to you like your in a boy band once you park and ask the dumbest questions

I got my lotus fully loaded so I actually have options that are not standard like:
carpet, a/c, power windows, power locks, a stereo .... lol yeah all those things are not standard plus a bunch of other things even kia's have
no cupholder ... no glove compartment .... haha

its the best race car that was created for the road imo that I could afford

I can't wait till I get to use the cupholder !!!
