I am an infantry officer currently stationed in central Iraq, and I have an unusual question for you Lotus Elise lovers.

I have 8 months left to my tour here, and I am absolutely in love with the Elise. I have been avidly following your reviews and postings, and have read everything I could find about the Elise on the internet.

I have decided that when I make it out of here, a British Racing Green Elise with a hard top and touring package is going to be my gift to myself, and I want to order one so that it is available for me when I return home.

Does anyone currently know what the lead time is on an Elise? How far out in advance of my return home should I place the order, so that it waiting for me when I get home? Can anyone recommend a good dealership in the Northeast or Florida that would be able to handle an unusual (from Iraq) transaction such as this one?

Thanks!
