Just a quick question.....I purchased a 2006 Abergene (purple) Elise last year and I have never seen another one in my local Seattle area. Does anyone know how many Abergene versions were made? I am sorry for such a dumb question....

Ops check:shrug:

are you in Aburn? :nanner2:

 

corrected title speeling Its all gold now.

Oops... corrected again. AUBERGINE with an I

OK... I think I got it right this time.

To the original question, I have no idea. But it can't be many. It is a pretty rare color.

 

well, cahnged it awynay

 

man, you're walking all over my sarcasm! if i go exige i will go aubergine

 

I've only seen one (in CA), it's a very rare color which is surprising as it's actually a great color for that car.

183 ET members replied to the question 'what color is your Elise or Exige'. 183 answered, only one of their cars was aubergine.

 

We just ordered an Exige S in Aubergine. My guess is it will be the only one in the US

THAT one will be easy to sell.

I'm happy you think so. I think it will be awesome. I had to fight for it and I'm on the line if it doesn't sell.

 

The local dealer gets a fair amount of KG Exige S's and they can't keep them on the floor. Another hard to find color. I wish I would've gotten KG instead of CO !!! ( Although CO is great too )

That was the original color I was going to buy, but decided against it. Had the purple been more like the Esprit purple (late 90s, S-body, 4 cylinder), it would have been a no brainer. I'd love to see some photos when you get it delivered.

 

I wanted Aubergine when I bought mine. At the time though, the only one in the country was in Florida, and it had no hard top. Getting a hard top plus shipping was going to add around 8k to the cost of the car. I settled for BRP, and I love it anyway. Aubergine is still secretly my favorite colour, just don't tell Liz.

 

Also makes an interesting Noble .

A member of Lotus Limited Southeast out of Clemson, SC has an Elise in eggplant.

 

I'd love to see some photos when you get it delivered.

I'm sure you will on the front page of the local paper with me under it. The headline will read........... "Lotus Dealership Owner arrested after running Down Sales Manager in fit of Anger. Car impounded as evidence. Lotus community cheers"

My wife and I went to Santa Barabara for our anniversary 2 weeks ago...and look what we parked next to...

 

May I suggest yellow stripes ...

or silver.

 

I think Aubergine sounds great.

Hey, Blondie, you will code for tires? Do I have a job for you!!! Any way to get you out of Kali? Our BRP's could have fun together. :coolnana:

Sorry for the shameless recruiting. Craigslist and Monster just aren't working for me.

There's one that comes to events in the ATL area sometimes, but I think the girl who owns it lives in SC.

Saw her at the ATL dealership once. I think her handle here is purplepeopleeater? Might be wrong.

Hah.. yes, I will code for tires, but no, I can't leave CA right now. Sorry! Best of luck- I know how hard it is to find talent. We're hard up out here as well.
