2008 Lotus 2-Eleven -- Description

2008 LOTUS 2-ELEVEN - BLACK / YELLOW - LAUNCH EDITION - 3K MILES - #189 This is a very rare car and has seen the expensive center seat conversion done by Rothsport Engineering (only one of 3 in the world). That makes this car equal in both right and left corners. Originally ordered for one customer who had 3 converted in Portland, OR. Build #189 has traveled approximately 3,600 miles from new, has been well maintained and used for DE and open track days only, it has never been raced. Vehicle has not seen any accidents or bodywork. It's most recent owner traded the 2-Eleven in on a Rossion Q1. Weighing in at just 1,477 lbs (dry weight with base specification) or 1,642 lbs (kerb weight with launch specification) and with 255 PS (252 bhp / 188 kW) on tap courtesy of its supercharged and intercooled 1796 cc engine, the 2-Eleven boasts a power to weight ratio similar to that of a 1960s Formula One car. Designed with the most serious of track day enthusiasts in mind, the Lotus 2-Eleven offers race car levels of performance coupled with legendary Lotus Ride and Handing to deliver a truly outstanding track day car, while benefiting from many of the chassis safety features of the Elise and Exige. The Lotus 2-Eleven launch edition model was designed to provide the Lotus driving enthusiast with maximum grin factor per mile. All US spec cars were ordered with the Track Pack and featured a unique and striking 3-way Lotus Sport color scheme. The light weight core-mat technology composite bodywork is 'bolt-on' for ease of maintenance and is matched to a track optimized front splitter and carbon rear wing. A Perspex® aero screen completes the body design offering the driver a measure of protection from the elements. The Lotus T4e electronic engine management system is further enhanced to introduce a new feature for the 2-Eleven; variable traction control. The 2-Eleven features a host of light weight bespoke components such as forged aluminum wheels, aluminum damper bodies and race-style battery. Careful attention to design has also helped keep weight to a minimum. Examples include mounting the oil coolers directly to the body panels, the quick release hinge-less engine cover and the use of multi-functional elements such as the rear wing / body support system. However, key safety equipment features of the Elise and Exige range such as front crash box and crushable rear subframe are utilized as standard on the 2-Eleven. Extra safety features such as 6-point rollover bar, 'highsided' chassis, 6-point seat harness, kill switch and fire extinguisher are also included equipment for driver protection.
