Well, I know we talked about this before, but we were wrong… There was a bid retraction and I am the high bidder again. I didnt get the option to deny it. It was stated previously (And I thought it was true) that if there was a bid retraction, I had the option of accepting being the high bidder. Such is not the case! 😆
Sorry Ski….I just don’t want to take the chance…and she hasn’t communicated with me, like she did with you….

Hehehe…are you talkin about me????? By the way what happened?
Look at the leg position, that is the key….
Here is the old brochure:
And here is Astral Castle’s view
This is my favorite…because he’s my cat…The Amazing Mr. Mephistopheles….

Nah, that isn’t it…I have been looking for months…I found 1 that almost matched, but when you look at the old brochure and the astral castle pics…it wasn’t one.
I think either me or Skigod would have found one if one was out there…..
Hehehe, and if I find something I am not telling until it’s in my hot little hands……muhuahahahahaha
Though, if there is ever more than one…I will share..you see I am not greedy 🙂
frozendragon wrote:exactly what I said….it’s kind of like you’re dragging your butt on the road….because they are less than 5 inches off the ground…..and the seats really are bolted directly to the floor….
horrible ride for that much money…but yeah…they are very fast
The whole mystic to the Lotus Elise is that they are stipped down and very light. And they are super stylish. So in Lemans style road racing they are actually keeping up with some of the Corvettes, Vipers and Porches…which is incredible.
Considering that these little guys have 150 to 200 horse power less than their competitors. It is all about the light frame and Horse power to weight ratio.
We keep seeing these little fellas at the road races and they do hold their own.. and they cost less than the cars I have…
I can drive my Viper or Vette everyday if I want…and I have a trunk in both so I can actually use either for a grocery getter…but the Elise has a tiny little trunk…so it would not have been practical for me…
I race the two cars I have, but they serve as drivers too…so practicality wise…and big nasty musle car wise….I couldn’t justify an Elise…
But in pictures it is a gorgeous, exotic little beast!
If you have 30k hanging around for a used one…and you are using it as a pretty day driver or race car…then they would probably fit into your lifestyle 🙂 They also make a great dream car! And they are affordable!
I initially just bid $200 and then I started to worry someone would snipe me and bid $300 because that was the max I was willing to go to…and it turns out I didn’t need to be worried….
But the last flap cat someone outbid me by 5 bucks….at the last minute…..
Just to let everyone know, the seller actually went to SParks website and read the packing tutorial…and agreed to ship as I asked….the seller seemed very accomodating!
Your muses are really very cute, especially with the little bows in their mouths…..but I am streched right now…
I bought an Emerald OW, White Scratcher, 2 Castles and have bids on some of the Orientals, the BVP OW and the Dark Calico Flap Cat on Ebay….If I win half the stuff I bid on…I will have spent a whole lotta money….
Otherwise I would have scopped up those two adorable little muses….they are precious!

I actually looked at a Lotuse Elise and they are in the 50k price range. They are neat little cars, but they are smaller than the Pontiac Soltice and have seats on the floor…
Gorgeous, yes, but very, very small, just a big go kart almost.
I prefer the big, burly American Sports cars…
Here are my babies and me 🙂
