2006 - Lotus Elise on 2040-cars
Scottville, North Carolina, United States
Car is being relisted because it was purchased by a user with 0 feedback and no intent of paying or following through in any way. Up for your consideration today, we have a 2 owner 2006 Lotus Elise with ~29,900 miles on it (I say this because while this listing is active the car is being driven). This car is awesome. I have been the owner since January of 2013. When I got the car then it has about 13,000 miles on it. I have put ~17,000 on it in the last nearly 2 years, and every one of those miles was a blast. Since I have owned it, the car has been well maintained and serviced. I had a local lotus dealer take care of the oil line connector recall when I first purchased, and I have had a set of tires and a clutch / lightweight flywheel installed in that time. Other than that and of course regular oil changes, air filters, and other standard maintenance, the car has been 100% problem free. The car came stock with a Starshield paint protection (seriously don't buy a lotus without it), Stage 2 exhaust, soft top and matching hardtop, power windows, traction control, power doorlocks, central locking, and keyless entry. Also this is a 2006 which means its the first year to get the upgraded LED Tail lights, which is a huge cosmetic upgrade. The car is mostly stock with a few tasteful additions. I added a Carbon Fiber Weighted Shift Knob for better shifter feel A custom Carbon Fiber Lower Dash Panel Custom Black Lotus Front Emblem Stage 2 Clutch added at ~22,000 miles in preparation for forced induction (which of course i never got around to :) ) Lightweight Flywheel (still very streetable and easy to drive) Black Lug Nuts Custom Carpeted Interior (easy removal if buyer doesn't like) Odyssey PC 925 Battery Custom Mount for Battery Polk Audio Rear Speakers Rockford Fostgate Amp JVC KD NX 5000 Head Unit (previous owner installed) Kenwood KSC-SW1 (previous owner installed) Tinted Reflectors (sheet tint peels right off) Also Included: The stock Owners info (books ect) are included Hard Top Cover Soft top bag Stock Front Emblem Stock Side carpets Passanger Footrest 100% brand new Silverstar 2.0 High and Low beam headlights never installed Please ask any questions before you bid! Im here to help. Also Interior pics are the next step (I want to fully detail the interior before taking them) I will also upload a driving video!

Elise Time Attack could be most extreme Lotus yet
Mon, 07 Jul 2014The Lotus Elise has given birth to some seriously fast and varied machinery. Aside from Lotus' own models like the Exige, 2-Eleven, 340R and Europa, electric vehicles like the Tesla Roadster, not to mention the never-released Dodge Circuit and Detroit Electric SP:01, are all based on the Elise's platform. As were/are the Melkus RS 2000, the Opel Speedster/Vauxhall VX220 and the Hennessey Venom GT. But this could be the most extreme use of the lightweight chassis yet.
This Series 1 Elise has been built by one performance-obsessed Brit with a single purpose: to compete in the UK's Time Attack championship. For those unfamiliar, Time Attack is something like a rally or a hillclimb event, only it takes place on a racing circuit. Each vehicle goes out on the track by itself and sets the best time it can, without needing to worry about other competitors until the finish line is crossed and it's the next racer's turn. That's what drove Lee to modify his Lotus so thoroughly, with more wings, diffusers, flaps and carbon fiber than a Boeing factory. Check it out in the video below.
The Stig breaks into Lotus F1 HQ
Mon, 16 Jun 2014As Top Gear's mysterious test driver, The Stig has driven just about everything on wheels - and more than a few things without. But an F1 car? That still remains a rarity, even on Top Gear.
That all changes in this latest promo clip, though. The video shows what happened when his Royal Stigness arrived at the headquarters of the Lotus F1 team in Enstone, England, where he somehow managed to scan his way in past security and got his hands on a Lotus-Renault E21, the V8-powered single-seater that Kimi Raikkonen and Romain Grosjean drove in the 2013 Formula One World Championship - and which the Stig will apparently be driving on stage during the upcoming Top Gear Festival in Durban. If you're not heading to South Africa this month, though (or even if you are), you can check out the footage in the video below.
Lotus F1 apologizes for tweeting support for LGBT Olympians
Mon, 10 Feb 2014The Lotus Formula One Team is apologizing after its official Twitter account posted this image of two men kissing in connection to the opening of the Winter Olympics on Friday, February 7. It claims that the original tweet was "unauthorized."
The tweet, which Lotus deleted later that day, can be viewed to the right and was promptly replaced an apology that said, "We would like to sincerely apologise for an unauthorized message posted on our Twitter account today & will ensure this cannot happen again." Responses to the kerfuffle on its Twitter page have mostly focused on confusion as to what the original tweet was and why it was removed.
While the Sochi Olympics have been controversial among LBGT groups because of Russia's laws banning so-called "gay propaganda," the country has a growing importance in F1. In fact, the first Russian Grand Prix is scheduled to run later this season on a circuit around the Sochi Olympic Park. Genii Capital, the team's owner, has business interests in Russia, and according to the BBC, the Lotus F1 team is working on a deal to with Russian mobile phone company Yotaphone to sell it 10 percent of the team.
