2006 - Lotus Elise on 2040-cars
Colonia, New Jersey, United States
This is a beautiful white 2006 Lotus Else Touring with Red Leather Interior. Lotus updates from the 2005 model include more comfortable ProBax seats for longer trips and an updated Clutch Cable. It also has features power windows and traction control. It comes with a black convertible top (Recently repaired) and lightweight white hard Cover top, in perfect condition. This is a pure driver's car. It's raw and minimalist. The Lotus Engine has variable valve timing that kicks in around 6,500 rpm. When that happens, this car will push you back in your seat and make you feel alive. Do NOT drive this car unless you want to be noticed. When I drive it down the street people snap pictures and give me a thumbs up. It has the performance and sex appeal of a Ferrari with the affordability of a new Toyota. In fact Lotus put the Toyota Celica GT 2ZZGE engine in the car, making it very reliable. The lightweight feel of the car is unlike anything else you can experience driving. The most incredible feature about the car -- it will make you smile uncontrollably when you drive it, guaranteed. Sure it may lake creature comforts, but I've found the excitement doesn't fade. It's maneuverable, nimble and loves tight turns. When you accelerate around a corner you will want to scream out shrieks of joy. Did I mention it also gets good gas mileage? This can be a daily driver, a weekend car, or a track car. I have never driven this Lotus on a track though I've pushed it on winding mountain roads. I have Yokohama S Drive tires and Continental DWS Extreme tires. It also has Lotus Interior rubber mats which don't get ruined like carpets.

Caterham inks US distribution deal with Superformance
Fri, 03 Jan 2014Sort of like an automotive big box store, Superformance is rapidly becoming the destination for anyone interested in modern kit cars. Besides the normal spattering of Shelby Cobra replicars, Superformance also offers replicas of the GT40 and Corvette Grand Sport. Now, we can add an altogether different type of DIY car to the company's portfolio - Caterham.
Superformance has just been announced as the new US distributor for Caterham Cars, effectively adding the entire suite of Lotus variants to the company's catalog. While there will be a large variety of models available, according to Caterham the mix will skew toward more powerful offerings. As much as we like the affordable appeal of a Seven 160 or Roadsport, simply having the wildly powerful 620 R or Superlight R500 available in the US is a good thing for enthusiasts.
"In the last two years, Caterham has significantly broadened its reach internationally and signing a new official distributor in the form of Superformance in America is a natural extension of how our brand is expanding, rapidly, across the globe," Caterham Group CEO Graham Macdonald said.

Lotus Elise, Exige recalled over oil line fire risk
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Lotus is recalling 451 examples of the Elise and Exige from the 2007 and 2008 model years. The cars in question, built from December 1, 2006 to October 31, 2007 could be affected by an oil cooler line that detaches from its fitting. If the line comes loose it could release oil onto the engine and possibly start a fire, or onto a tire and potentially cause a crash.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates the recall is expected to begin on March 4. Notified owners can take their cars to their dealers for repairs to the lateral oil cooler hose and hose fittings. You'll find the full release from the NHTSA below with more information.
Race Recap: 2013 Japanese Grand Prix flips several scripts [spoilers]
Mon, 14 Oct 2013Japan's Suzuka circuit is a great track that all the drivers love, but it doesn't usually provide the most thrilling, head-to-head racing. Where it does excel, however, is with surprises and "What just happened there?!" moments, and this year it was no different.
It started with Mark Webber in his Infiniti Red Bull Racing out-qualifying his teammate Sebastian Vettel for the first time this year. They were followed closely by Lewis Hamilton in the first Mercedes-AMG Petronas, the still-solid Romain Grosjean again outdoing teammate Kimi Räikkönen, Felipe Massa racing for another seat in Formula One and putting his Ferrari in fifth, then Nico Rosberg in the second Mercedes, Nico Hülkenberg in the first Sauber, Fernando Alonso in the second Ferrari, and Räikkönen continuing to do himself no favors by qualifying tenth.
For the second year in a row, the lights going out was the cue to start the first corner action...
