Highlights
- This Lotus features a 6-speed manual transmission, and its odometer currently displays approximately 7,800 miles.
- The attached Carfax vehicle history report shows no mileage discrepancies in this Elise’s past.
- A partial list of notable equipment reported by the seller includes a removable soft top, sport seats, a MOMO steering wheel, and air conditioning.
- Modifications reported by the seller are limited to 17-inch Lotus Elise California Edition wheels and the removal of exterior badges.
- Lotus introduced the second-generation Elise in America for 2005. Compact, lightweight, nimble, and focused, it was conceived as a pure driving machine in the same vein as its predecessor, and thus offered far more thrills than comforts and conveniences. American sales stopped in 2011, though production continued abroad until 2022.
- Power comes from a 1.8-liter straight-4, rated at 190 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. Output is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed manual transmission.
