It may take some time, but if the issue is happening as often as you make it sound, they WILL find it. Just be a little patient.

Oh, from a legal standpoint...if this car dies while im merging with traffic and I get totalled (assuming I live) can I sue GM for it? (I mean, I know I COULD, but would I get anywhere is what I am saying)

It did it twice within 5 minutes and thats all its ever done it. No codes thrown, and no lights came one. It happened just after the German Castrol oil change, but I will refrain from blaming that, lol.

The Elise is a purpose built track car, you have to option for radio and A/C, that certainly isnt girly. And it weighs 1000lbs roughly less than an S2K, and doesnt have to rev to 8000+RPMs to make usable power.

Wait so they gave you your car back with it still dying on you???? Dude seriously dont drive it and call GM customer service as you should not have to deal with that crap. Stay on their asses till they fix it or try to have them buy it back from you if they cannot find the problem. It happened with my sister's boyfriend and his 02 blazer. Thing kept having electrical issues that led to a blown motor (SES light came on and instead of fixing the issue which was a faulty oil pump and an eletrical problem they simply deleted the code...) and we both bitched at them till they finally bought it back. I would certainly call GM customer service and file a complaint to see what they will do.

They cant fix what they cant find man, its not them refusing, its them not being ABLE to find the problem. They are more than willing to replace part after part, but without a basis for it im not having them do that, thats $$$$$$.

I have not checked on the MAF, TB, bit if they were bad off enough to instantly kill my car at random im sure it would be doing funny stuff ALL the time.

He claims its stock. I dont know whether it is or whether he claimed he has new CV axles or not. If you dont want to use the RSX as an example, use the SRT4, they can and do take those numbers with a stock driveline (my friend blew 4th gear, repaired it, and went on ) (oh, he does have a 6- puck clutch)
