The Lotus Esprit is famous for being James Bond's car in two of the superspy's Seventies flicks. The Esprit was first seen in The Spy Who Loved Me, where it transformed into a submarine during a thrilling chase sequence. Then, it was used in For Your Eyes Only. But that's not the only outing for this British automaker's mid-engined rear-wheel-drive sports car. Furthermore, a silver 1989 Esprit SE, the same model year as this red 1989 Lotus Esprit SE, featured in the film Pretty Woman. Bearing less than 19,000 miles, you can buy this slice of British quirkiness from us right now, don a tux, and pretend that you're James Bond. Just don't try to take it into the sea, as this car doesn't transform into a submarine.
Draped in a fetching red dress, this 1989 Lotus Esprit SE is every bit as alluring as it was way back in 1989. Its pop-up headlamp clusters feature dual circular headlamps, and the wedge shape is the result of Giorgetto Giugiaro's penmanship. This car has received a few minor cosmetic upgrades, one of which is the dark bronze six-spoke alloy wheels with Lotus-emblem green and yellow center caps. Behind the wheels lie yellow brake calipers. At the rear, there's a spoiler plus twin silver exhaust tips offset to the passenger side of the car. As a United States-market car, this 1989 Lotus Esprit SE is left-hand drive, so you won't have any trouble using it on our roads. The tan interior offers two leather seats for driver and passenger, as well as power mirrors, power windows, and a cigarette lighter interestingly placed within the driver's door. Then, you've got a comprehensive instrument cluster with VDO gauges, including a turbo boost gauge in the center, flanked by a tachometer, 170mph speedometer, and auxiliary gauges. Meanwhile, the center stack hosts the air conditioning controls, plus a Sony radio cassette head unit. There's even a sunroof for some fresh air. Despite the mid-engined layout, there's still some cargo space in the rear of the car, behind the engine compartment. This is further helped by the spare tire being sited under the hood at the front of the car.
This 1989 Lotus Esprit SE is a turbocharged variant, packing a 2.2L in-line 4-cylinder turbocharged engine for power. The engine was factory rated for around 280hp which was plenty in 1989. Sent to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual gearbox, this car is truly a treat to drive. You can achieve 0-60 in around 5 seconds, which is better than most American sports cars from the same period. Then, you'll be glad for the grippy disc brakes on all four wheels, which can bring you to a stop in a very quick fashion.

With more than ten years of production under its belt, Lotus described the Evora as its most comfortable sports vehicle to date. Although that was the case in the past, the fact that it was still a Lotus meant that its primary purpose was to be an exceptional driving machine. The GT variant of the Evora debuted a few years ago as the most powerful and comfortable version, and 2021 was the final model year for this car before the new Lotus Emira took its place. Lotus claims that this car competes directly with a Porsche Cayman GT4 and is one of the most visceral vehicles money can buy. This absolutely stunning example of the 2021 Lotus Evora GT shows just 7,400 miles on its odometer. According to its owner, this particular specimen is unique because it was the "last car off the assembly line."
From 1996 to 2021, the world was blessed with a diminutive, lightweight, pure sports car called the Lotus Elise.

Three generations, or series, were produced, and this 2005 Lotus Elise hails from the Series 2 era, which ran between 2001 and 2011.
