1991 LOTUS ESPRIT SE Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 THIS CAR WILL BE SOLD TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER (ABOVE THE RESERVE) AS IS AND WHERE IS, WITH NO WARRANTIES INTENDED OR IMPLIED. PERSPECTIVE BIDDERS SHOULD NOTE THAT THIS CAR IS NOT STREET LEGAL IN SOME LOCATIONS BECAUSE OF THE EXHAUST MODIFICATIONS DESCRIBED BELOW. BIDDERS SHOULD ALSO NOTE THAT THERE SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE CHARGING SYSTEM. A VOLTAGE METER INDICATES THAT THE ALTERNATOR IS CHARGING ONLY ABOVE 2-3K RPMs, AND IF THE CAR IS LEFT UNDRIVEN FOR A LENGTH OF TIME, THE BATTERY WILL RUN DOWN. CALYPSO RED, TAN LEATHER INTERIOR (NOT JUST LEATHER TRIM…ALL LEATHER INTERIOR), LESS THAN 54K MILES, HIGH END ALPINE STEREO AND SECURITY SYSTEM W/REMOTE BEEPER, BOTH SOLID AND GLASS REMOVABLE ROOF INSERTS. A/C NEEDS RECHARGING. ONLY 115 OF THESE CARS WERE MANUFACTURED FOR SALE IN THE U.S. IN 1991. INTERCOOLED 2.2L 4 CYLINDER TURBO, 5 SPEED MANUAL TRANS, 330 HP CHIP, COLD AIR INTAKE, 3 INCH (MANDREL BENT) PRIMARY EXHAUST (CAT REMOVED) WITH A SINGLE FLOWMASTER DUAL EXHAUST MUFFLER, 17 INCH "OZ" RACING WHEELS WITH (215/40R FRONT AND 275/40R REAR) “FUSION” DIRECTIONAL TIRES (“W” RATED AND 60-70% WEAR REMAINING), 13 INCH FRONT BRAKE ROTORS WITH 4-POT OUTLAW CALIPERS, AND ADJUSTABLE CARRERA COIL-OVER SUSPENSION ON ALL FOUR CORNERS THIS CAR STILL PULLS UNBELIEVABLY HARD, AND CAN STILL DO 0-60 IN ABOUT 4.5 SECONDS…OR LESS. DRIVING IT IS ABOUT AS MUCH FUN AS YOU CAN HAVE WITH YOUR PANTS ON. THIS CAR IS DEFINITELY NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART, OR FOR ANYONE MUCH OVER 6-FEET TALL. THE ALL-FIBERGLASS BODY IS LIGHT, SLEEK, STRAIGHT AND IS OFTEN MISTAKEN FOR A FERRARI. IT HAS A FEW BODY FLAWS, BUT NOTHING SERIOUS. THE TIRES ARE VERY GOOD, BUT THE RIMS HAVE A FEW SCRATCHES. THE WINNING BIDDER ON THIS CAR ALSO GETS THESE OTHER GOODIES: 1. A FREE IBM NOTEBOOK LAPTOP COMPUTER WITH A WORKING COPY OF “FREESCAN” (AN ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS TOOL FOR THE LOTUS ESPRIT AND A FEW OTHER GM CARS); 2. A DIGITAL COPY OF THE SE SHOP MANUAL; 3. A HARD COPY OF THE SE SHOP MANUAL; 4. A HARD COPY OF THE SE PARTS MANUAL (ITEMS 1-4 ARE ABSOLUTE ESSENTIALS IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE WORKING ON THIS CAR); 5. A SMALL STORE OF STOCK PARTS THAT CAME OFF OF THIS CAR DURING MODIFICATIONS; AND, 6. EXTRA MEMCAL CHIPS INCLUDING AN S4S MEMCAL CHIP, AND A 350 HP MEMCAL CHIP.
