Oh I love that 2ZZ engine on the Elise. I had the "same" engine on my Celica years back and that little thing packs a lot of punch after 6000 up to 8200 rpm. It felt most powerful on 3rd gear on my Celica. What about the Elise?

Man i think that was one of the best engine that Toyota have puut on the Celica GTS & Corolla XRS. Always i want to build an MR-S 00+ with a 2zz engine ... is the most close to an Lotus Elise

i think that Elise have to feel awesome... a great engine + less weight = great car

It pulls pretty hard from any gear once over 6,000 rpm. Personally I love the feel of the tires chirping even from a roll in 2nd to 3rd, which I can hardly ever get the Z to do unless its from a dig.
