2002 Lotus Esprit

Scottsdale Lotus is very pleased to have the opportunity to offer this Rare 2002 25th Anniversary Edition Lotus Esprit Twin Turbo V8 with only 10,000 miles driven since new!  This example is finished in the beautiful Lotus Racing Green with Magnolia supple leather interior with Matching Anniversary Green Piping and Carpets!  This Cars condition both mechanically & cosmetically shows the meticulous care its previous owners bestowed upon it, including all of the factory recommended service and some nice extras; including a New Factory Clutch at 7500 miles, Upgraded Lotus ECM Flash (400HP and 400FT/LB’s), Raid Steering Wheel with Airbag and Billet Lever Set, Both Tops (Glass and Painted), Fresh Oil Changes every Year, Optima Gel Red Top Battery and a custom Fitted Green Lycra Car Cover to name just a few!  This car is believed to be 1 of 2 Racing Green Anniversary Edition Esprit’s to be produced for the US market and is number 67 of 100 US Anniversary cars to be produced!  The Esprit was one of the first low, wedge shaped sports cars when introduced in 1976. This design won it recognition as a movie star car in such films as James Bond’s 'The Spy Who Loved Me' and 'For Your Eyes Only'. The re-style in 1988 softened the lines a bit and earned it another cameo in the hit movie ‘Pretty Woman’. The basic style of the Esprit survived almost 30 years, a true testament to its crisp, modern look and its famous designer Giorgetto Giugiaro. In 1997 Lotus shoe-horned a twin turbo V8 in the Esprit rated at 350 hp that enables the car to obtain 60mph in a scant 4.7 seconds on its way to a 178 mph top speed. This really improved the character of an already rapid piece of machinery. Anyone in the market for a vehicle with supercar performance, low production exclusivity and head-turning looks will certainly want to jump at the chance to own this immaculate Pre-Owned Anniversary Edition Esprit. These cars are an absolute bargain being only a fraction of the cost of any European exotic you can compare it against. We allow a pre-owned Lotus in our inventory only after it meets our high standards and is inspected by our factory trained technicians. We encourage you to inspect the car in person or on Carfax. Please give us a call at (480) 922-6242 with any questions or to arrange an appointment. Our experienced team carefully selects our inventory from the ideal conditions of the dry southwest.
