1960ish Lotus Elite?
 
Close enough, it's a '62 Elite S2.>

Extra points for the dark convertible and the orange/blue cars.

Well, the dark convertible is definitely a Fiat 850 Spider. The red BMW appears to be a mid'60s 1800.

In the background is a Porsche 924, painted in the Gulf Oil colors.

I think the composite headlights makes that a BMW 2000, and it is wearing Augsburg registration.
 
The dark convertible looks like an Alfa to me, and I agree on the orange and blue Porsche.
 
White van might be a VW Caravelle?

Sorry, Stephen 987, you're a little off on the BMW and the shape of the door handle doesn't correspond to that of the Fiat 850 Spider pics I've been able to dig up which show a handle toward the rear of the door rather than the top, as in this photo.
 
My first thought was that it was an Alfa Spider and after checking several Alfa photos
I found different door hardware but this 1980's Spider Veloce had a similar door handle.

Yep, it is a BMW 2000TI ca. '66-'72 and you and Michaell are correct on the Porche 924 in Gulf livery.

Yeah, you're right about the door handle. The 850 has that funky layout with the button in the door and the finger slot behind the door. Not sure how I could forget that, considering how often I had to put it back together on the one I owned back in high school!
