Every automotive publication and car show has raved about the awesome handling. This is your chance to own a near-perfect, low mileage example of what has been called the best handling sports car in the world. This particular car has had only one owner. The car has traveled just 11,700 miles and was always dealer serviced. It has never been in an accident or had any paintwork. Even the factory alloy wheels are in excellent condition. The Arctic Silver Metallic paint was an extra cost option. It still looks like new. The car was sold new with the Touring Pack option which featured full carpet set, leather interior, power windows, insulated removable soft top, added sound and thermal insulation, upgraded sound system, and stowage net behind the seats. The following upgrades items are installed and go with the car: · Stainless Steel Braided Brake Lines filled with with Castrol SRF Fluid · Baffled Oil Pan · Sector 111 Harness Bar · Driver and Passenger 4-point Schroth Harness Belts (original belts are still installed and can be used) · Floor Mounted Fire Extinguisher · Dealer Installed Lotus Stage II Sport Exhaust (original is included in sale) · Strengthened Toe Links · Tall Carbon Fiber Shift Knob (original is included in sale but you’ll love this one) · Trunk Mounted, Hard Wired Battery Maintainer · Crossed British / Checquered Flag Decal (will be removed if buyer desires) · Enameled Lotus Logo on Engine Cover There is no significant wear anywhere on this car.

Kimi Raikkonen moving to Ferrari?

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

Kimi Raikkonen, easily one of our favorite current drivers in Formula 1, may be making a move from Lotus to Ferrari, according to a Finnish tabloid called Ilta-Sanomat. Raikkonen, who won the driver's championship in 2007 with the Italian brand, is in high demand and is also rumored to have options on the table from Red Bull and his current team.
Of course, a move by Kimi to Ferrari means at least one of the Maranello-based outfit would need to find another ride. Driving ace Fernando Alonso has publicly voiced his displeasure with the Ferrari chassis, and rumors have the Spaniard considering a move to Red Bull to replace Mark Webber. Buckle up, folks, this Silly Season is shaping up to be bumpy...

Lotus Exige S tears the roof off

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Some things just don't make sense. But then we're not sure they really have to. Imagine Porsche took the Cayman, which is essentially the coupe version of the Boxster, and turned it into a convertible. Wouldn't make much sense, would it? Well that's essentially what Lotus did with the creation of the Exige S Roadster.
The Exige, you see, was already the fixed-roof version of the Elise. So what was the point in turning it back into a roadster? That's what our friends at XCar tried to ascertain in the video below. We could tell you what conclusion they arrived at, but that would spoil all the fun. So we'll just let you enjoy the seven-minute clip and see for yourself. Just remember: it doesn't have to make sense. It just has to be a Lotus.

Lotus Esprit cancelled? [UPDATE]

Thu, 04 Oct 2012

Two years ago, we were gobsmacked when humble Lotus shocked the automotive world by wheeling out no fewer than five new models - admittedly in various stages of development - at the 2010 Paris Motor Show. The ambitious onslaught of new sheetmetal came at the behest of then-CEO Danny Bahar who aimed to broaden the British marque's appeal by dramatically expanding its portfolio. Bahar was later thrown out by new Malaysian owners DRB-Hicom in a management shakeup that seems to still be, well, shaking out. Bahar was deposed over accusations of financial wrongdoing and the controversial executive has fired back with a $10.6M lawsuit.
Against this chaotic background, a cornerstone of Lotus' revival plans hinged on the rebirth of its Esprit supercar (shown in 2010 concept form above). According to new reports, however, the Esprit has been cancelled, a victim of the company's uncertain finances and direction. Depending on which rumor you choose to believe, the two-seat coupe was slated to receive a house-built V8 and possibly turbocharging or hybrid power. That may all be moot now, however, as DRB-Hicom is reported to have scrapped Bahar's plans wholesale, a development that apparently includes killing off the mid-engined Esprit, too.
UPDATE: And this, friends, is why we have this story with a question mark and a Rumormill tag - Lotus is denying that the Esprit has been killed off.
