Selling my Chili Red 2006 Lotus Elise. Currently has 70k miles, clean title, street driven and maintenance up to date with recent services completed. This is a fantastic driving car and handles like no other! Very exotic and unique looking, especially in Chili Red paint, it turns heads and gets questions everywhere I take it. Lots of attention! Reason for selling, I currently do not need the car at the moment so it is up for sale. I have recently completed needed services and upgraded to a few aftermarket parts. Runs and drives perfectly, no issues. This lotus is packaged with touring package, track package suspension, and traction control. This is a street driven west coast only car!It will be sold as it is which includes Bilstein Track pack coilovers with 10k miles, Manly Poly motor mounts, Jan speed stage 2 exhaust, black Exige probax seats, black Exige diffusor, JL Audio front and rear speakers, Pioneer MVH-X560 Head unit, Radium quick clam removal kit, GRP mesh kit, black LOTUS lettering for rear clam and more.I recently completed a few services on the car, such as, new Exige clutch, new poly motor mounts, spark plugs, fresh oil change, oil filter change, transmission and diff fluid change, brake fluid flush, coolant flush, new thermostat, new radiator, new exhaust manifold (header to block) gasket, green air filter (plus removed snorkle), replaced full dashboard including all components, new interior carpeting, new HVAC heating and ac module, sanded and polished headlight lens, turn signal seals and much more! All this has been completed in the last 3 month.There are a few small imperfections with the car. Mainly being the front clam in the lip area. Being a street driven car, there is some rash in the front on the underside. The fiberglass needs to be patched and resprayed to look perfect. I recently had the rear clam resprayed and had the reflectors shaved. There are common wear items throughout due to its age, nothing bad. A few scratches on the inside aluminum. Typical wear and tear for a performance car driven on the street. That being said, this car is very well kept and cared for!I am sure I am missing a few things, overall it a clean lotus with a clean title. It is maintained and well kept. Its hard to sell it, it truly is an amazing experience driving one of these, and it sounds amazing for a 2zz with the Jan speed exhaust!Please shoot me a text, email or give me a call with question! I can provide the VIN upon request. I can also provide more pictures if needed. I am available to show the car anytime! It will be parked and stored in the garage until sold. Shoot me an offer, I am open and flexible on price.

Race Recap: 2013 Bahrain Grand Prix follows the template of this year and last [spoilers]
Mon, 22 Apr 2013The sand, the wind, the penalties, the contact and the one crash - all of them collided to make the Bahrain Formula One Grand Prix a surprise affair from day to day and lap to lap. Oh, and did we mention the tires? Pirelli made a last-minute swap after the amusement park ride that the Chinese Grand Prix turned into with the soft compound tire, and brought medium and hard compounds to the desert. That didn't stop things from falling apart for some teams - literally - and that didn't stop the one team that seems to love the hard compound Pirelli tire.
Aston Martin and Lotus each issue recalls
Sun, 14 Oct 2012A pair of head-turning high performance cars are catching some attention off a different kind, in the form of safety recalls. Aston Martin and Lotus have issued recalls for the V12 Vantage Coupe and Evora, respectively.
Aston Martin's affects 169 examples of the 2009-2012 V12 Vantage Coupe. It concerns the tire-pressure monitoring system, and is less a malfunction than it is a compliance issue. The TPMS does not alert the driver until the front tire is more than 25 percent below the recommended cold tire pressure. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 138 states that the alarm must sound when tire pressure is "equal to or less than either the pressure 25 percent below" the recommended cold inflation pressure. To address the issue, Aston Martin will notify owners and reprogram the software, free of charge.
As for Lotus, 80 supercharged Evoras have been recalled, all built between February and September, 2011. The problem involves an engine-mounted oil feed pipe, which could rupture, causing loss of engine oil or a possible fire if the oil sprays onto a hot engine.
Lotus Esprit all but ready to go, but held back by management issues
Mon, 26 Nov 2012Brief and disappointing is this report from Autocar on the status of the Lotus Esprit: it is finally ready and sitting at the light, but the light might not go green for a long time. The good news is that from being a concept two years ago at the Paris Motor Show, the aluminum and carbon fiber revival coupe is "purportedly almost finished." It is powered by a twin-turbo, 5.0-liter V8 with something like 650 horsepower, boosted by a kinetic energy recovery system (KERS) and shifting through a seven-speed paddleshift transmission. Even with all that, the UK price is said to be around that of a Porsche 911 4S Cabriolet, and the car only needs "signing off and minor tweaking."
The bad news is that former company owner Proton couldn't stay independent long enough to see through the company's ambitious five-concept-car assault - led by then-CEO Dany Bahar who was hired explicitly to lead such a campaign - and was swallowed up by Malaysian auto supplier DRB-Hicom. For a brief spell Lotus had to shut down production for lack of funds. Then the new owner cleaned house, sweeping out Bahar and, according to the Financial Times just one month ago, the Esprit and every other concept with it. Just after the FT piece came out, Lotus denied the Esprit had been canceled. Still, according to Autocar, the management whirlpool is keeping the Esprit "far from becoming a production reality."
If we're honest with ourselves, we'll keep in mind that the Esprit has been slipping into and out of a terminal ether for what seems like decades. None of us knows what is going on inside Hethel HQ, but the fact that there really is a lightweight, twin-turbo, 650-hp Lotus Esprit finally ready to be produced has to be, in spite of all else, very good news.
