yes. i FORCED him to put his name on the list. only about 350 are being sent to the USA. our dealer gets the exige in april. long story short, dad took his name off the list because he didn't think spending 5 grand more was worth it. so insted we have already set aside a BRG (non-metalic this time) w/ black interior, sport package (basically 1/2" lower and stiffer suspension with lighter wheels and slick tires) no touring pack (no insolation, no electric anything, crappier cd player, no carpets, no cargo net in the rear). since it is the 06' it has a different pedal box and led tail lamps. we also selected from the new option list the torsen lsd & traction control (no launch control).
the sport pack elise is identicle to the exige except for the following:
-exige has ZERO visability from the rear because it has no rear windscreen -exige has more front and rear downforce -exige has same seats but has harness holes -exige is BLOWER ready, elise is not
...however, besides this info, the decision was also made by my dad to buy a blower for the elise. even though the exige is blower ready from the factory with factory blower, the elise can also be retro-fitted for a blower. dad has already made the decision that a blower WILL HAPPEN 
ANYWAYS... looking forward to the bbq, hope i can attend!
