2006 Lotus Elise. 52,700 miles. Addison, Texas  Text me at 214-924-1362 with any questions.  I reserve the right to cancel the auction due to local interest.  Feel free to schedule time to view the car in person, the condition is excellent.  Please do not send me offers below my asking price.  I do not need to sell this car.


(Rebuilt title at 31,635 miles, daily driver since then, no issues)  Title shows blue and clear now with no rebuilt comment, but wanted to be upfront about this.  See comments below, this is a special case.

Update - It does have Limited Slip Differential LSD equipped!  A very desirable feature which is quite rare on this model.

Rebuilt title info:
Reported as total loss 11/02/10. I was told by the previous owner that a dealer bought the car from that this was due to an insurance fraud issue, I found pics of the car at auction no issues with the car I could see. Dealer in Alabama bought the car for himself, 1/27/11 he has car inspected and rebuilt title issued (31,635 miles). He ends up getting another sports car
from auction, and no longer wanted to keep the lotus, previous owner buys the car from him 4/4/11 (32,431 miles). The car was driven as a daily driver for 3 years, and it now has 52,700 miles. No issues other than AC which as described above has been completely fixed.

Condition:
The car is in great condition, I have never tracked, it’s a daily driver, but very little highway miles, my office is 8 miles from my home, 3 stops lights. Very minimal stone chips etc. Fixed rear bumper, someone tapped the back in Oct 2012, fixed by Trade Secret in Plano TX, now looks brand new.  Always covered parking at work and home. Wash the car by hand has a very wet glossy look after multiple layers of using the wax. Will need new brake pads in the next 6 months which are $20 at Autozone.  It will probably need the hard top roof liner replaced as its starting to sag a little.  I've tried to be as detailed as possible but please ask any question as I was to be as upfront as possible.  Amazing car in great condition and needs nothing.  Transmission and clutch operate perfectly.


I will ship or release the car to you after funds clear in my bank account.  Cash, wire, or cashier's check.  All shipping arrangements must be made by the buyer.

Lotus will kill Elise, Exige and Evora to make room for the new Type 131

Mon, Jan 25 2021

Lotus ended years of speculation by announcing it will begin rejuvenating its range when it releases a new model in 2021. Known as the Type 131 internally, its arrival will mark the end of the Elise, the Exige and the Evora. Although the three aforementioned models are showing their age, putting them out to pasture at about the same time is a surprising move because they're currently the only cars in the company's lineup. Saying that the Type 131 will have big shoes to fill is an understatement; it will blaze the path that a full family of new cars will follow. Official details about the 131 are few and far between, but an earlier report sketches the outline of a driver-friendly sports car powered by a mid-mounted engine. While it won't stray far from the lightness and the nimbleness that Lotus is famous for, it will be equipped with more tech than even the Evora, which offers a more comprehensive list of features than the track-inspired Exige and the back-to-the-basics Elise. Insiders have claimed that the 131 will be built on a new modular platform, and that it will not use any kind of electrification. Lotus released an image that shows the Evija (an electric, 2,000-horsepower halo car strictly limited to 130 units globally) next to three enigmatic cars hidden by a cover; one is presumably the 131. Another might be the battery-powered model that it's developing jointly with Renault-owned Alpine. As for the third, your guess is as good as ours. We know that the British firm is developing a Volvo-based SUV, but it's not pictured in the lineup. News of a new Lotus model will bring joy to enthusiasts and economists alike. The company is investing over 100 million British pounds (about $136 million) into its Hethel, England, facility, and it will hire about 250 employees to bring the 131 to the market. Most of the recruits will work in engineering and manufacturing. Lotus noted that it hopes to start building prototypes of the Type 131 — an internal designation that will likely not appear on the production model — in 2021. We don't know if deliveries will also begin this year, or if they are scheduled to start a little later. Regardless, it will be worth the wait. Lotus told Autoblog that all of its future cars will be engineered for global markets, and that its intention is to sell the Type 131 in North America. Related video:

Lotus nearing decision on sedan versus crossover

Mon, Mar 9 2015

Lotus may be comfortable for the time being developing newer and better versions of its existing sports cars, but it won't necessarily skate by on its aging product portfolio forever. According to a report from Reuters, Lotus and its Malaysian parent company DRB-Hicom are currently considering adding a new model to the British automaker's lineup. And in a further sign of the times, it seems likely that the new model would be either a sedan or crossover. "I'm a bit torn between an SUV and a four-door sports car – but in the end I can see that the SUV has the bigger market," Lotus CEO Jean-Marc Gales told Reuters. "We'd do an SUV that is very light, very fast on the track and has outstanding handling," in keeping with what Lotus is known for. It would not be the first sports car manufacturer to delve into either category, of course. Porsche rebuilt its business by expanding into both categories with models like the Panamera, Cayenne and Macan. Maserati has long offered successive versions of the Quattroporte, more recently launched the Ghibli sedan and will soon introduce the Levante crossover. Aston Martin has toyed with both, as has Lamborghini. Other marques like Ferrari and McLaren, however, remain resolutely opposed to either proposition. This past December, we reported that Lotus was preparing to go a slightly different route by offering a high-riding version of the Evora instead of a proper four-door sport-ute. This latest development, however, would appear to be quite different. The company's engineering division showcased the APX crossover concept back in 2006, and revealed the Eterne sedan concept as part of the grandiose plans of the previous Bahar administration in 2010. The last time the proposition came up this past August, nearly half of respondents to our online poll voted that Lotus should build a sedan, but not a crossover. Over a quarter of you said Lotus should built both, 2 percent voted for the crossover over the sedan, and 22 percent said Lotus should steer clear of either.

Join XCAR as it explores the history behind the Lotus Seven

Fri, Feb 28 2014

All modern Caterhams are based on the Lotus Seven – a small, lightweight roadster developed by Colin Chapman back in 1957. That car has evolved into an entire range of models, spanning from the new, affordable 160, shown below in the latest video from XCAR, to the maniacal 620R. Over the years, the Seven has come to be a known quantity among auto enthusiasts. What isn't as well known is the origin of the Seven and the cars that came before it. As XCAR points out, "What happened to [the Seven's] earlier ancestors? What happened to the Lotus numbered one through six?" The answer probably isn't what you'd expect. Scroll down for a great look at unique motorsport that inspired Colin Chapman's earliest efforts in the latest video from XCAR. This content is hosted by a third party.
