1994 Lotus Esprit Description

When explaining a car like this you first have to tell the story behind it and what a story it is. The car was first purchased from Lotus of Bellvue, in Seattle Washington. Salesman was Dave. It was purchased by Paul Allen. Yep the same Paul Allen who Owens the Seattle Seahawks and Micro Soft. In 1996 Paul traded back in to Lotus Of Bellvue for a 1996. Only being on the lot for less then a month. Bob Lilly bought it from, you guessed it, Dave. Bob owned this car and babied it for more then 18 years. Thinning out his collection, Bob sold it back to Lotus Of Bellvue. After 20 years the Lotus is back at the same dealership as when it was new. Less then a month later actor Paul Vinson bought the car from yep, the same Dave who sold it new to Paul Allen. He still works there today. This is just half the story. The car has less then 39.000.00 mile and it shows. I mean there is no wear on this car. Interior is mint, no repair, no rebuilding the motor. Just some really cool up grades. Like the fly wheel and clutch are from the S4s, brake lines are all braided steel. The motor has had the same type oil as new. It's red over black with F-1 rubber. They only built 339 of these in 1994 which makes it even more rare. All the books, service records are all current and up to date. New clutch, time belt, fuel injectors, and here's a relly cool thing Paul vinson did was change and up grade the exhaust. It sounds as mean as it looks. Notice the pipes coming from the rear. I do have a car fax report on this car. Washington state clear, clean title. The car has been driven an average of 2000 mile a year. Always temperature controlled garage from day one. It's also had the cv boots done, radiator up grade so it never over heats. The mileage is well documented as well as everything done on the car. One last thing. When I drive through La Jolla everyone turns to see. Not like the Farraries and Lamborghinis. They see those cars everyday. This car is being sold privately by actor Paul Vinson. This car has never been drivin in L.A. San Diego and widows are blacked out even the windshield to keep the sun out of it. If your really serious I will email you more info and pictures.
