I think you can find a few of those here in the states.
Yes, you can. But I don't think you want to pay for one.... or take care of one... or look at the interior of one. Does that mean I don't want one?.... No.

As for the Elise, I love it. But it's VERY gutted for a street car. And it just lacks enouph power to be a dominant road course car. So what do you do with it? AutoX and canyon carve, I guess. For as much money as they cost, I'd have to go with the supercharged Exige S so that when I catch somebody in the corners, I could actually pass them down the straightaway, not just watch them drive away.

You don't like the interior?

Or were you thinking of the ‘80’s Esprit? If so then I agree. 1980’s interior styling combined with wood grain doesn’t look that great.

I said it before, and ill say it again, i hate hondas, but i love their engines. I boosted k24 with a k20 type r head would be scary fast.

Yes it would. And very, very expensive too.

Yeah the TSX engines or a Accord block with RSX/integera type r head would both still be a pretty penny. Not to mention the time to build the engine and make everything work. But in the long run, it would probably be far better than the toyota engine used out of the celica.
