2005 Lotus Elise.
This car is in EXCELLENT condition! Just look at it!
It's like brand-new but it isn't perfect!
Pictures speak a thousand words, so please look at each picture or have someone come and inspect if you are
worried about the condition of the car. It runs great and drives strong.
It has NO leaks. It has one main problem - the check engine light for the aftermarket exhaust. It has never been
"tracked." It has never been "curbed"
This car is currently located in the greater Salt Lake City, Utah area and I will assist the new owner with
shipping or picking up, so long as your requests are reasonable; e.g. - pick you up at the airport, etc.
It drives AWESOME with no stearing problems or any other problem except those noted in here.
The car has EAGLE F-1 Rear Tires that were put on in 2008.
Factory Stereo that plays CDs and MP3 CDs (works great).
Touring Package.
SOFT TOP INCLUDED and in excellent condition (as seen in pictures)!
NO HARD TOP, REPEAT - IT DOES NOT COME WITH A HARD TOP. SOFT TOP ONLY.
I've never driven it in the rain or snow and have kept it garaged since I've owned it (I am the 2nd owner). I
HAVE ALL SERVICE RECORDS FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER - Originally a Florida car). Between 2005-2008 the car was in
Florida and got about 9,500 miles on it. The rest of the miles have been between 2008 and today. I have the
original owner's manual.
Sorry, no factory warranty.
It is NOT due for an oil change until March 2017.
New battery in 2015.
You should be aware that it has an aftermarket exhaust on it and if the car sits too long the check engine light
comes on. The car just needs to be driven and the code cleared and it will stay off (that's what the Lotus
dealership told me).
No other problems other than those listed in here.
2 keys and 2 remotes with owner's manual (one of the keys is a blackwatch key).
Never been smoked in.
No accidents.
It's a blast to drive and I love it!
BUT my wife HATES the car because "EVERYONE STARES AT YOU WHEN YOU DRIVE IT"
Body Style Convertible
Mileage 12,345 - I still drive it, so it might be slightly higher. (I only put 155 miles on it last year)
Exterior Color CHROME ORANGE (it sparkles in the sun)
Interior Color BLACK LEATHER
Engine 4 Cylinder Gasoline (with aftermarket exhaust and air intake that sounds AWESOME)
Transmission Manual
Drive Type 2 wheel drive - rear
Fuel Type Gasoline
Doors Two Door
VIN SCCPC11175HL32298

Next Lotus Elise to draw from its roots

Wed, Jul 27 2016

Recently-appointed Lotus CEO Jean-Marc Gales told Autocar that work on the new Lotus Elise, which is coming in 2020, is already underway, and thanks to growing sales, the automaker is set to make a profit for the first time in 20 years. Gales also dropped some details about the new sports cars' design philosophy and underpinnings. According to the report, the new Elise will utilize the same aluminum chassis technology found in the original Elise and won't bear any resemblance to the 2010 Elise concept. Instead, the upcoming vehicle will uphold its roots with a lightweight design that emphasizes driver involvement at an affordable price. The new Elise is rumored to weigh in at roughly 1,984 pounds, almost 384 pounds more than the original Elise. In order to meet US crash ratings, the Elise will most likely be wider, but have the same length as the current model. Power will probably come from a Toyota unit producing between 134 horsepower and 245 horsepower. The Elise is expected to come to the US where it will be offered with a manual and automatic transmission, which will both come from Toyota as well. Gales claims Lotus has more orders now than in any year in the last 10 years, with the US being one of the automaker's most important markets. Related Video:

Jay Leno goes old school with 1966 Lotus Elan 26R

Mon, 31 Mar 2014

On the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage the guest's are both from inside the garage: the man they call Professor Jim Hall, Leno's master fabricator, and the 1966 Lotus 26R that he spent 18 months building. The Elan 26R was the racing version of the Elan that Lotus founder Colin Chapman began building after watching privateer teams prep their roadgoing Elans for competition duty all over Europe. Built by the factory from 1964-1966, drivers like Jim Clark and Jackie Stewart won silverware in the roadster called "the giant killer."
Hall, a veteran Lotus wrench, started with the 1966 Elan street car and turned it into a 26R that's arguably better than the factory original. Except for the engine block and head, original 26R body and Elan chassis, just about everything is custom built, highly modified or special order, from the fabricated oil pan, brake lines, safety wiring and oval exhaust tubing to the six-speed sequential transmission.
The episode is an unusually-long 21 minutes because, as an in-house build, Leno can go through the process of putting the whole roadster together. When he takes it for a drive and keeps going on about how it sings, you can hear it, too. It's worth the time to check out Mr. Hall's Opus in the video below.

Lotus Type 130 electric supercar officially named Evija

Fri, Jul 5 2019

Only known as the Type 130 to this point, the new Lotus supercar finally has its official name: Evija. Lotus made the announcement at the 2019 Goodwood Festival of Speed, and some fans have the lucky opportunity to get a sneak preview of the all-electric performance vehicle during the event. The Evija, which is pronounced "ev-eye-a," will be the first car Lotus has produced under the ownership of Chinese umbrella company Geely. Evija means "the first in existence" or "the living one," according to Lotus, thought the company did not go into the origins of the word. With cars such as the Rimac C_Two already in existence, the Evija is not the first electric supercar, but Lotus says it is the "first all-electric hypercar" from a British automaker. It's also the first electric Lotus. The Evija is slated for its world debut in London on July 16, 2019, and production is expected to start in 2020. However, Lotus set up a light show experience at Goodwood that involves that car. So, fans won't see the full vehicle, but the experience will tease small yet-to-be-seen details. Very little information is known about the car yet, save for a nebulous aero image and a couple short video teasers. It will have a push-button gear selector, a light-up rear Lotus badge, an electric charging dock cover, and it appears it will have a tablet style dash setup. And, of course, carbon fiber will be the material of choice inside and out. We'll have full specs, photos, and information shortly. Auto News Green Green Lotus Lotus Evija
