What do you guys think about the Eco Elise?

What do you guys think about the Eco Elise utilizing natural fibers in replace of carbon fiber and some other materials in the interior?

So, being All Natural, you can eat the upholstery while you wait for the tow truck?

Exactly I am so sick or enviro influence on cars. Bad enough F1 and LMP are more electric than combustion. Now if Ferrari starts making a pasta based frame and can run on olive oil I will change mind and eat my car

I think this is another reason why Lotus sells about 500 cars per year.

Dreadful or not, I would not put my money down on one until it has been out for a few years, then make the decision.

I never cared for the Elise's styling to begin with. An Elan fixed head coupe, now that's another story.

I just took another look at the photos, I have to now totally agree with dreadful.
