What reviewers liked least about the 2007 Lotus Elise:

• A driver with big feet can snag the footrest while trying to depress the clutch; when the ragtop's in place, getting in and out will test many a driver's spinal flexibility; and Lotus will have to convince potential customers that the name is no longer an acronym for Lots of Trouble, Usually Serious.- Automobile
