2006 Lotus Elise Convertible Carbon Fiber Sport Touring Pack on 2040-cars

Year:2006 Mileage:35078
Location:

Elkhorn, Nebraska, United States

Elkhorn, Nebraska, United States

Up for sale is my 2006 Lotus Elise which has the premium, touring, and sport packages.  I am the 3rd owner of this car and purchased it with 31k and have just passed the 35k mark.  This car is a real head turner due to the carbon fiber clamshell and the gold flakes in the lifestyle paint.  This Elise also has a very unique quilted biscuit interior.  The pictures show the hard top but also includes a soft top as well.  Please review original MSRP (see photos) for additional equipment/features.

 

I have had it in the shop twice for regular maintenance/oil changes (every 30k or 1.5 years).  New tires were installed last year and currently have less than 1000 miles. 

 

Overall, the car is in great shape.  The carfax is clean and there are no mechanical issues or leaks. 

 

Flaws

  • Front carbon fiber lip has seen some driveway curbs and speed bumps.  It is not part of the front clamshell and can be replaced.
  • Radio is aftermarket and if you don’t get the face on just right it will cut in/out
  • Two small dime shape chips are in the rear roof from where the trunk was open too far and scraped the paint.
  • Rims showing some road rash (typical for any car) 

Accessories included: lotus car cover, diamond plate floor mats, stage 2 exhaust, JVC KD-NX5000 head unit. 

 

Transportation

Buyer is responsible for vehicle pick-up (Omaha, Ne) or shipping.  The buyer is responsible for all shipping charges.

Lotus honors F1 efforts with limited-edition Exige LF1

Tue, 10 Jun 2014

Lotus has announced a new, special edition of its hardcore Exige for customers in the UK and Europe. Limited to just 81 units (for the Lotus Formula One team's 81 victories), the new Exige LF1 is the ultimate accessory for fans of the British manufacturer's Formula One efforts.
Befitting of a car inspired by the Lotus E22, this particular Exige is finished in the team's traditional black and gold colors, complete with red accents inspired by the F1 racer. The exterior is further enhanced with unique badges that proclaim the LF1's limited-edition status. Matte gold wheels have also been fitted, just like this Lotus' big brother.
This isn't purely a paint-and-stickers job, though. Lotus has also touched up the cabin, offering up black leather and "technical fabric," complete with gold contrast stitching and piping. The seat backs and floor mats feature embroidered logos, while an individually numbered, carbon-fiber plaque sits on the LF1's dash.

Race Recap: 2013 Bahrain Grand Prix follows the template of this year and last [spoilers]

Mon, 22 Apr 2013

The sand, the wind, the penalties, the contact and the one crash - all of them collided to make the Bahrain Formula One Grand Prix a surprise affair from day to day and lap to lap. Oh, and did we mention the tires? Pirelli made a last-minute swap after the amusement park ride that the Chinese Grand Prix turned into with the soft compound tire, and brought medium and hard compounds to the desert. That didn't stop things from falling apart for some teams - literally - and that didn't stop the one team that seems to love the hard compound Pirelli tire.

Aston Martin and Lotus each issue recalls

Sun, 14 Oct 2012

A pair of head-turning high performance cars are catching some attention off a different kind, in the form of safety recalls. Aston Martin and Lotus have issued recalls for the V12 Vantage Coupe and Evora, respectively.
Aston Martin's affects 169 examples of the 2009-2012 V12 Vantage Coupe. It concerns the tire-pressure monitoring system, and is less a malfunction than it is a compliance issue. The TPMS does not alert the driver until the front tire is more than 25 percent below the recommended cold tire pressure. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 138 states that the alarm must sound when tire pressure is "equal to or less than either the pressure 25 percent below" the recommended cold inflation pressure. To address the issue, Aston Martin will notify owners and reprogram the software, free of charge.
As for Lotus, 80 supercharged Evoras have been recalled, all built between February and September, 2011. The problem involves an engine-mounted oil feed pipe, which could rupture, causing loss of engine oil or a possible fire if the oil sprays onto a hot engine.
