2005 Lotus Elise Sport And Touring Package *leather, Power Windows, Track Ready* on 2040-cars
Omaha, Nebraska, United States
This has been a great car to me. Minor maintinence, sounds great, always attracts attention, and makes me smile everytime I drive it. I really just don't fit in it very well (I am 6'6"), and don't get to drive it that often. I would love to keep it, but its just not the right car for me. The car runs and drives great! What you see in most of the pictures is its current condition. The picture with front end damage is how I received the car. What you see in the pictures is what you get. The car has not changed at all from when these pictures were taken. I did include the pictures of when I originally purchased the car to give you idea of what the damage looked liked. Like new Toyo Proxes R888s. Instead of the original tire size, I went with wider 255/40/R17 tires in the rear for more grip and an overall more stable rear end, and the original 195/50/R16 on the front. Great Tires! Sector 111 Upgraded Radiator. The car runs and maintains about 185 degrees during the summer or winter. Sector 111 Tall Rails. I am 6' 6" so I also installed this seat lowering kit that lowers the drivers seat about an inch, and I will include the original seat rails. When I purchased the car, It came with a beautiful set of LED Tail Lights. The center console, around the shifter, is normally a grey plastic cover but now has a black leather cover that matches the rest of the interior. The muffler is currently off the car and a redirect pipe points the exhaust down out the original exhaust hole. This reduces weight, and in my opinion it sound great (my other lotus friends did the same thing after hearing mine) but I can include the factory muffler with the car when purchased. Other than that, the car is completely stock Call, text or email me with questions 402-301-8888, Garrettmitchell121@gmail.com |

Lotus spotted testing more extreme Elise on the Nordschleife
Tue, 19 Aug 2014If we had a nickel for every version of the Elise that Lotus has rolled out over the years, we might actually have enough spare change to buy one ourselves. And we're not even talking about the entire separate models (like the Exige and Europa) that Lotus has based on the Elise's platform or the other automakers' cars (like the Tesla Roadster and Hennessey Venom GT) that have used the same. And now Lotus appears to be testing another one.
Spotted lapping the Nürburgring, what we're looking at here appears to be the track-bound Elise S Cup R, but our intrepid paparazzi by the side of the track tell us it's missing the switches for the battery isolator and fire extinguisher. In their place, this Elise is wearing an even bigger rear wing as part of an altogether rather aggressive aero kit - not to mention a rockin' matte red wrap.
All of these telltales make us think Lotus has something extreme in the works, and we could find out what exactly it is as early as the Paris Motor Show in October, so stay tuned and watch this space.
Why all of this year's F1 noses are so ugly [w/video]
Fri, 31 Jan 2014If you're a serious fan of Formula One, you already know all about The Great Nosecone Conundrum of 2014. Those given to parsing each year's F1 regulations predicted the strong possibility of the so-called "anteater" noses as far back as early December 2013. Highly suggestive visual evidence first came after Caterham's crash test in early January, with further proof coming as soon as Williams showed a rendering of the FW36 challenger for this year's championship. That car earned a name that wasn't nearly so kind as "anteater."
Casual followers of the sport - or anyone who gets the feed from this site - probably don't know what's happening, except to wonder why the current year's F1 cars are led by appendages that would make Cyrano de Bergerac feel a whole lot better about himself.
The short answer to the question of ugsome F1 noses is "FIA regulations and safety." The reason there are various kinds of ugsome noses is simpler: engineers. The same boffins who have given us advances including carbon fiber monocoques, six-wheeled cars, double diffusers and Drag Reduction Systems are bred to do everything in their power to exploit every possible freedom in the regulations to make the cars they're building go faster - the caveat being that those advances have to work within the overall philosophy of the whole car.
Lotus announces race-ready Exige V6 Cup and Cup R
Fri, 11 Jan 2013Lotus has pulled off the wraps on two new versions of the Exige: the V6 Cup and the V6 Cup R. Based on the Exige S, the V6 Cup is built to be a dual-purpose street and track machine. The 0-60 dash should take just under 3.8 seconds thanks to a full 345 horsepower from a supercharged 3.5-liter V6 engine. Weighing in at 2,380 pounds, the V6 Cup should be an absolute riot to drive, and with a full FIA-approved roll cage, fire extinguisher and six-point race harnesses on board, it's plenty safe, too. Two-way adjustable dampers are standard, as are AP Racing four-piston calipers on all four corners. More importantly, drivers can expect to find the Lotus Dynamic Performance Management system in the cockpit, complete with Touring, Sport and DPM Off modes.
The V6 Cup R, meanwhile, is both lighter and offers more horsepower than the standard V6 Cup. The same blown V6 dishes out 366 horsepower in R trim, and the whole contraption tips the scales at 2,292 pounds. Of course, the same spate of race hardware is stock, minus the DPM system. A lightweight battery, track-spec tow loops and quick-release engine cover help separate the Cup R from its more civil sibling, as do performance brake pads and better oil and water cooling systems.
Check out the brief press release below for more information. Both of the new models are headed for a debut at the 2013 Autosport International Show.
