Chassis no. SCCDC082X2HA10412. Arctic Silver Metallic over black leather. 3506/350hp, 5-speed, alloy wheels, Dunlop SP Sport tires, AP Racing brakes, clear roof, aluminum shift knob, Alpine stereo, books and tools.

Evaluation: One of just 100 25th Anniversary cars for North America. Just 1685 miles and clearly treated as collectible since new. No flaws to speak of, other than some unfortunate scratches from a license plate rubbing on the rear.

Bottom Line: Somewhat undervalued compared to their peers but still appreciating, the late V8 Lotus Esprits are, at least at the top end, six-figure cars now. The Anniversary package added some premium here, but the car would have broken the $100k barrier without it.
