The car is finished in Aspen White and features composite bodywork over a bonded aluminum chassis. Equipment includes StarShield paint protection film, a removable roof panel with a functional air intake, an integrated front splitter, rock guards ahead of the rear wheels, a fixed rear wing, and a rear diffuser for improved downforce when compared with the contemporary Elise. The seller notes chips in the windshield and scratches in the paint. The Carfax report lists damage to the rear of the car in August 2009.
Staggered-diameter Lotus Sport cup wheels are mounted in 2021 with Yokohama A052 tires measuring 195/50R16 up front and 235/45R17 at the rear. The car is equipped with traction control and Bilstein mono-tube dampers with Eibach coaxial coil springs. Braking is handled by four-wheel slotted discs. InoKinetic DSbrace toe links have reportedly been installed under current ownership.
The cockpit features single-piece ProBax seats upholstered in black leather with cloth trim along with a matching center console and door panels. The exposed aluminum structure is visible throughout the interior, and amenities include air conditioning, power windows, a push-button starter, rubber floor mats, an InoKinetic Ultimate ShiftR111 kit, and a Clarion CD stereo with a pop-up display and rearview camera.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a 10k-rpm tachometer, and a digital fuel readout. The digital odometer indicates 37k miles, approximately 28k of which were added under current ownership.
The supercharged and intercooled Toyota-sourced 1.8L inline-four was factory rated at 220 horsepower and 165 lb-ft of torque. The car has reportedly been equipped with a forged aluminum radiator and intercooler in addition to a lightweight battery and bracket. An oil change was last performed in January 2021.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle. A Larini Stage 2 exhaust is said to have been installed under current ownership.
Manufacturer’s literature, a tool kit, and service records are included in the sale.
