Ardent Red / Black 2012 Lotus Evora IPS. (Precision Paddle Shift Automatic)

Sold new here at Lotus of Bellevue, this Ardent Red Evora is a highly optioned 2+2 model that is equipped with Lotus' IPS automatic gearbox. When it was new, this Evora commanded an impressive $83,175 MSRP with options accounting for nearly $13,000 of the sale price. It has been extremely well-kept since being sold and has been driven only 20,000 miles.

Debuted in 2011 for the 2012 model year, the Intelligent Precision Shift (IPS) Gearbox is Lotus' first foray into automatic transmissions in over twenty years. Beautifully engineered, the IPS was chosen over Porsche's PDK automatic transmission by the staff at Road&Track magazine, calling it "the real deal." Paired with the IPS, the Evora's 3.5L V6 engine will shuttle this Lotus to 60mph in just 5 seconds on its way a top speed of 160mph. The Evora features one of the most dynamic chassis on the road today with Eibach springs, Bilstein dampers and Lotus/AP Racing brakes to haul everything in.

This Evora is finished in sporty Ardent Red with contrasting Black wheels over a black interior. Thanks to the inclusion of the SuedeTex Premium Pack, this Evora's 2+2 interior is appointed with leather Recaro sport seats with Alcantara inserts, an Alcantara dash and Alcantara door panels. The Technology Pack is also included, adding a premium Pioneer audio system with touchscreen display, Bluetooth telephone connectivity, iPod integration, satellite navigation, satellite radio, cruise control, tire pressure monitoring and rear parking sensors. Further options include heaters for the front seats, a rear-view camera and the aforementioned wheels. Notable standard features include a sport steering wheel, air conditioning, Xenon head lamps, LED tail lamps, integrated rear spoiler and a rear diffuser.

CarFax history report, remote key and a pre-sale inspection at Lotus of Bellevue's factory authorized service center included.

Often touted at the new "benchmark for driving dynamics" and "One of the Worlds Best Handling Sports Coupes in the World", at a price under $60,000 dollars there is nothing that comepares to the Evora.

Non Smoker and accident free.
