Rebuilt title info:
Reported as total loss 11/02/10. I was told by the previous owner that a dealer bought the car from that this was due to an insurance fraud issue, I found pics of the car at auction no issues with the car I could see. Dealer in Alabama bought the car for himself, 1/27/11 he has car inspected and rebuilt title issued (31,635 miles). He ends up getting another sports car
from auction, and no longer wanted to keep the lotus, previous owner buys the car from him 4/4/11 (32,431 miles). The car was driven as a daily driver for 3 years, and it now has 52,700 miles. No issues other than AC which as described above has been completely fixed.

Condition:
The car is in great condition, I have never tracked, it’s a daily driver, but very little highway miles, my office is 8 miles from my home, 3 stops lights. Very minimal stone chips etc. Fixed rear bumper, someone tapped the back in Oct 2012, fixed by Trade Secret in Plano TX, now looks brand new.  Always covered parking at work and home. Wash the car by hand has a very wet glossy look after multiple layers of using the wax. Will need new brake pads in the next 6 months which are $20 at Autozone.  It will probably need the hard top roof liner replaced as its starting to sag a little.  I've tried to be as detailed as possible but please ask any question as I was to be as upfront as possible.  Amazing car in great condition and needs nothing.  Transmission and clutch operate perfectly.


I will ship or release the car to you after funds clear in my bank account.  Cash, wire, or cashier's check.  All shipping arrangements must be made by the buyer.

Lotus slated to stop selling Evora in US

Mon, 22 Sep 2014

It's been three years now since Lotus stopped selling the Elise and Exige in North America, leaving the Evora as its only model available Stateside. But according to the latest from Car and Driver, even that model is on its way out.
The problem reportedly comes down to air bags. Lotus was granted a temporary exemption from fitting the latest-generation smart airbags to the Evora, but that exemption is set to expire at the end of the year. And once it does, Lotus apparently has no intention of developing and fitting the proper equipment to allow it to continue selling the Evora in the United States.
Once the Evora is gone from our market, Lotus will be reduced to selling only track-bound versions of the Elise and Exige in the US, so the prospect of actually buying a new Lotus and driving off the dealer lot will vanish into thin air.

The Stig bungees a Lotus F1 car in Durban

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

Remember a couple of months ago when a mischievous Stig broke into the Lotus racing headquarters in Enstone and made off with an F1 car? Well, now we know where he went with it.
In this humorous clip from Top Gear, the tamed racing driver in the white suit disembarks with Pastor Maldonado's Lotus-Renault E22 (not the E21 he took from the team's headquarters, eagle-eye viewers might notice) in Durban, South Africa, and takes it to Moses Mabhida Stadium for the Top Gear Festival. After having some fun on a dirt bike, a chrome Mustang drift car and a few other curiosities, he hooks it up to a bungee cord and jumps off a tower behind the wheel.
Now we're not quite convinced they actually did this and that it wasn't all CGI, but it's still worth a watch and a laugh.

Race Recap: 2014 Spanish Grand Prix is boom and bust [spoilers]

Mon, 12 May 2014

The Spanish Grand Prix's 2.892-mile Circuit de Catalunya is considered a preview for the rest of the season, since it's a combination of long front straight and twisting middle sectors mimic sections from every other Formula One track to follow. After the long break following the flyaway races to open the season, teams and fans have also been looking forward to this race to see if anyone had a realistic hope of catching Mercedes AMG Petronas; Infiniti Red Bull Racing honcho Christian Horner boiled his team's outlook for the season down to the line, "We've got to [beat them in Spain] if we're going to make a championship of it."
If we take that as our starting point then the weekend began as a bust. Lewis Hamilton only just beat Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg for pole, the Brit's final effort getting him 0.178 seconds clear of the German. Daniel Ricciardo, proving Red Bull is at least the best of the rest, took third but did so more than a second behind Hamilton. Valtteri Bottas of Williams lined up fourth, almost 1.5 second behind and Romain Grosjean delivered overdue good news for Lotus by taking fifth on the grid, more than 1.7 seconds behind pole. Kimi Räikkönen in sixth outqualified his Ferrari teammate Fernando Alonso in seventh, but he couldn't be happy about it because the Ferraris were nearly two seconds behind, and Jenson Button in eighth in the McLaren was more than two second behind. Felipe Massa put the second Williams in ninth, and Sebastian Vettel overcame a terrible start to the weekend to make it into Q3, then didn't set a time when his gearbox failed, then got dropped five places to 15th on the grid when the gearbox had to be changed.
When the lights went out, then came the boom...
