Built in 2014
1962 BRUNTON STALKER M CLASS
Titled as a 1962 Lotus
For your consideration I am offering my meticulously maintained BRUNTON STALKER M CLASS kit car chassis number
#008 constructed by Brunton Stalker in St. Petersburg, Florida and built/assembled by an experienced North Carolina
mechanic/enthusiast in 2014 which comprised his 3rd Stalker construction project. There is a strong resemblance to
a Lotus, an Americanized Lotus on double steroids.
The vehicle is Texas titled as a 1962 Lotus and powered by a very low mileage 2012 6.2 litre LS3 Camaro engine
which produces an incredible 530 HP and more than 800 "road shearing" ft-lbs of torque (Dyno Tested) on four brand
new TOYO R 888 tires installed just four weeks ago with 15 miles of use. Please note in the pictures the custom
built aluminum radiator which rendered excellent service from the extreme southern Texas summers having never
overheated, even in heavy traffic. The transmission is a 6L80E automatic; manual shifting is done by using red
push buttons on the steering wheel, with gear selection indicated on a dashboard display. The car is weighing in at
only 1850 lbs and less than 4000 miles on the odometer.
For fastest acceleration a 2800 rpm torque converter is installed.
The body is of fiberglass and aluminum.
A brake bias adjustment is located on the central tunnel. A master kill switch is installed on the dashboard.
The car has a full adjustable suspension including shock absorber set up.
In inclement weather the car is custom fitted and protected by a high quality SUNBRELLA brand tonneau cover and
a (winter) cold weather full enclosure, which takes only minutes to remove. The car is fully sorted and track ready
and even street legal as this is a serious race car that can propel a competent driver from 0-60 MPH in under 3
seconds. More than $ 50,000 is invested in this Brunton Stalker M Class / Lotus and this automotive beast needs a
young, more experienced driver who can unleash the mind numbing potential that was built into this car. A
"safecart" report can be sent on request. Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can answer any questions

Lotus and Aston Martin to hook up?

Tue, 30 Oct 2012

This has been a tumultuous year for Lotus - to say the least - from the company being sold off back in January to its CEO Dany Bahar being fired in June to its questionable financial status and rumors of the British automaker being sold off to another automaker. First, we heard that Volkswagen was interested in acquiring Lotus and parent company Proton, a rumor that was later dismissed. Now Automobile is reporting that fellow Brit Aston Martin could be in the market to work with or possibly even merge with Lotus.
While this is pure speculation at this point, such a venture could prove to be beneficial for both independent companies. That's because with Lotus focused on lightweight, relatively affordable sports cars and Aston Martin producing high-end performance cars, there is virtually no product overlap between the companies. The article suggests that a person or company wanting to merge these two automakers would have to raise between $1.1 billion and $1.6 billion in order to make a go of it, however.
We're not sure what to think of this latest rumor, but anything that can help get the struggling brand back to health at least has our interest.

2017 Renault Alpine still looks like a Lotus

Thu, Jul 23 2015

Two years ago, an oddly modified Lotus Exige was photographed speeding around the Nurburgring. While that car looked British, at the time Renault's engineers were reportedly developing the suspension for the future Alpine sports coupe underneath with some help from the folks at Ohlins. Now, our spies have spotted this weird Lotus-bodied mule out testing, and it might be a major hint that development for the reborn French brand is getting serious again. Unfortunately, it's hard to pull many details about the future Alpine just from this mule. Up front the air extractors are noticeably covered, and at the rear there's now a panel hiding the engine with just some small vents near the very back. The roof-mounted scoop appears to be the major means of sending cool air to the powertrain. Alpine has been back in the news as of late. At the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the brand's Celebration Concept was unveiled but without many real details. Then, at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, the car was filmed actually moving under its own power. Earlier reports suggest that a production version, possibly called the AS1, might come in 2017 with around 250 horsepower on tap from an engine mounted behind the driver. Engineers would keep weight as low as possible to make the most from that power. While no version in the US is likely, prices in Europe might be about the equivalent of $34,000 to $40,000.

Lotus names Jean-Marc Gales as new CEO

Sun, 04 May 2014

It's been about two years since DRB-Hicom took over Proton, and through it Lotus. One of its first courses of action was to fire the existing CEO, Dany Bahar, and proceed to scrap most if not all of his (arguably over-) ambitious plans. In his place they put one of their own - Aslam Farikullah - as Chief Operation Officer, but now the Malaysian-owned British automaker has attracted an industry heavyweight to lead it into the future.
That heavyweight is Jean-Marc Gales. The British- and German-educated Luxembourgian has spent the past couple of years running the European Association of Automotive Suppliers (CLEPA), but may be better known for his previous posting as CEO of PSA Peugeot Citroën between 2009 and 2012, during which time he introduced the Citroën DS line, amongst others, and increased the French automaker's sales. Before PSA he worked for Daimler, General Motors and Volkswagen.
As the new Chief Executive Officer of Group Lotus, Gales will face the difficult task of growing a business based on three models - the Elise, Exige and Evora - that date back to 1996, 2000 and 2009, respectively. Whether he'll push for new models like his predecessor did remains to be seen, but he'd be wise to learn from Bahar's mistakes and avoid overextending what has always been a relatively small automaker.
