www.sport190.com. In the aricle section, the owner talks about the dicussion he had the dealer, who mentioned that fixed caliper option would lose the parking brake, which I assume is due to the parking brake being integrated to the rear calipers.

hmm i donno, but looking at pics of the US elise's wheels looks to me its got hub parking brakes. if it was like the Enzo which has its own caliper for parking brakes you can tell.
