The Elise was on my short list when my 1996 Legacy was rear ended. It was on the list because it has high performance figures and decent fuel economy. Plus, it has a Toyota engine which should be reliable and efficient.

That said, my 600cc motorcycle goes 0-60 in like 2 seconds and costs practically nothing used. I'd take anything with 2 wheels over anything with 4 for the fun factor at a fraction of the cost.
