Imagine the sensation of driving a legendary sports car through the winding roads of the Italian countryside.

The Elise SC sports a compact Toyota-sourced 1.8 liter four cylinder with a supercharger which produces a decent 218 horsepower; however, it has a curb weight of less than 2k pounds so it can blast to 60mph in less than 4.3 seconds which will help immensely as you come out of a mountain curve and drive on to tackle a straightaway before you.
