These are lotus Elite's. If it had a toyota motor it was probably an Elise as posted above. The motor is a 2ZZ for the usdm elise and exige. This motor was available in the celica GTS, Corolla GTS, and even a hot version of the Matrix. For some odd reason the MRS only got the detuned 1ZZ version





I was the designated driver for my 6'8" buddy one night in mine, it was absurd.
