To be honest, I like it except for the fastback part. But if I get one (or an Elise) it would be in bright orange , and it would be a track/autox-only car.

The only two things you get with an exige that you don't with an Elise (if you equip it right) is nicer seats and better aerodynamics. I'm pretty sure that's it. Oh and factory blacked-out forged wheels. And of course, it looks a bit different and you have no rear visibility.
