i would say evo due to it being more useable
the other two are more track/weekend orientated
i know there is ppl who use a vx220 every day, but i know i couldn't

Then EVO, VX's are a nightmare to get in and out of, but there's probably a knack to it.
Lotus is a pretty small car, quick but small.
Evo you'd be comfortable, have the speed and looks.

Do i need to answer? The VX and the Elise are pretty much the same car.
VX will probably be cheaper to run and best to drive, Elise is similar but with that engine im thinking thats an aftermarket thing? Lotus dont make them like that do they? id expect problems.
Which evo would you be looking at? I wouldnt have an Evo if i was looking at the other 2 as well, running costs are very high, so is insurance and next to the elise/vx its not as nice to drive imo, ive spent a fair bit of time piloting Lisas Evo 7. Its incredibly fast and capable point to point but not as rewarding as my vx

only when all the girls from perfect 10s ask me for a lift home 
It depends what your used to really, i dont find it impractical but then all my mates drive, i dont have any kids or anything and i work about 4 miles from home. Its not great in winter as the heater is really shit, but just going out 5 mins before i set off and its not a problem.
