 Up for sale is an AMAZING and RARE Solar Yellow 2007 Lotus Exige S with ~22,500 miles.

The car is in great condition and has always been babied. The Solar Yellow is one of the most sought after and rarest colors (along with Krypton Green!) and this baby will not last at this price. The color is essentially the equivalent of Lamborghini's $12,000 triple layer pearl yellow!

This car came with the Touring Package (power windows, leather seats, etc.), traction control (crucial!), starshield (aka clearbra-- just as crucial!), and a few other cool bits.

The car also has an upgraded exhaust custom made by 2bular, considered the experts in Lotus Exhaust systems. We wanted to make sure the car looked exotic... but also looked OEM. This was the best design. Twin tips coming out over the upgraded 5 element diffuser! This is the euro-style exhaust and turns heads everywhere it goes.

It has a great, exotic bark to it when you are driving aggressively (people turn and take pictures!)... but it isn't obnoxious or overly loud. You can easily have a conversation on your cell phone!

Check out the pictures and imagine this bad boy in your garage or driving it to grab a bite to eat and having them park it right in front. It's phenomenal!

By far, the most reliable and fun exotic out there... Oh, and it's FASTER than most other exotics out there too! 3.8 seconds to 60 is pretty hard to beat!

Get the attention you deserve everywhere you go! And don't worry about crazy maintenance costs!

NOTE: Had a small crack in the back above the license plate (~1 inch) that was fixed by the #1 lotus body shop in the country! That is the "minor incident" on the carfax... Literally a crack about 1 inch long. Not even kidding!

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 hands Pastor Maldonado a new Evora S in Monaco

Sat, 31 May 2014

Being a Formula One driver has its privileges. First off, you get to drive F1 cars for a living. You get treated like royalty and fly around the world. And if you're lucky, you might get a supercar thrown at you once in a while. It all depends on which team you drive for.
Fernando Alonso, for example, has had countless Ferraris, Maseratis, Abarths and Jeeps thrown his way. Lewis Hamilton was a little disappointed not to get the keys to that rare McLaren F1 LM when he won the championship. But Pastor Maldonado just got his hands on a new Lotus Evora S.
Pastor who now, you ask? Pastor Maldonado. The first Venezuelan driver in F1, Maldonado won the GP2 title in 2010 then made the jump to F1, driving for Williams for the past three seasons, impressively winning the Spanish Grand Prix in 2012. Now he's at Lotus filling Kimi Raikkonen's seat, and took delivery of his white Evora - complete with 3.5-liter supercharged V6 and six-speed sequential gearbox - in Monte Carlo last weekend during the Monaco Grand Prix.
