Vehicle Detail
Anybody need a collectible car for their garage? I've got one for ya. This is an absolutely beautiful car to add to the collection. This car has amazing paint. Only two teeny tiny blemishes that were touched up by a body shop. Not a touchup pen from walmart. It also has a few minor scratches around the door handle probably from the keys many years ago. Other than that the paint is flawless. Interesting fact, lotus only painted certain cars black. The fiberglass body had to be a certain quality to meet that standard. So it's a rare color. The interior is in amazing shape as well. No stains, no rips or tears anywhere. The drivers seat does have wear on it but it's not terrible. One gauge has been replaced with an aftermarket gauge which isn't the prettiest but you get use to it. Other than that the interior is mint. Very VERY clean. The motor runs great. Fires up first time every time. I will take a video of it running so you can see how good it runs! The transmission shifts smooth as butter. There are no mechanical problems with the car. The car has had lots of upgrades, however we never received documentation of where that work was done. The previous owner had it for about 12 years, had the title reworked into his wifes name then I bought it. Here's the list of upgrades its had done. Upgraded Lotus Red Racing ComputerBrembo BrakesHRE Performance Three Piece RimsUpgraded Turbos (Unsure of make model specs etc)2003-2004 Tail LIghts This is a car you have to see to believe it is a true beauty.
