Unfortunately not an option in some parts of the US.
That's interesting about the Elise owner's manual.  I was under the impression 
it was illegal to sell a new car here that could not handle E10.  Plus it's a 
Toyota motor (assuming you are talking about a US-spec Elise).
My buddy has an Elise, and it seems to run fine on E10.  (It's got a dead 
battery at the moment, so he's driving his Z6 instead.  But I don't think the 
dead battery was caused by E10 <G>)
