Here’s one of those epic British sportscars that everyone can’t get enough of—the Lotus Esprit. Made across four generations between 1976 and 2004, just 10,675 were made. That makes it rarer than most Italian and German sports cars. The Esprit also gained much acclaim for its showing in two James Bond films of the ’70s and ’80s, even turning into a submarine in one. For the first three generations, the Esprit was powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder engine, but in 1996, the fourth generation got the V8 that the car’s looks always deserved. In fact, only 101 units were ever produced with the iconic V8 engine for model year 2001. That’s what this 2001 Lotus Esprit packs behind the passenger cabin and has got less than 30,000 miles on the clock. Moreover, the car has been massively massaged in the powertrain department and packs a horsepower figure of much more than stock. Furthermore, the current owner reports that service records are included too.
The iconic wedge-shape of the Esprit changed little over its four generations, and the car continued to rock pop-up headlamps right up to the very end in 2004. You’ll get all those neat features in this 2001 Lotus Esprit, dressed in a suave Titanium Metallic coat that befits its role as a superspy’s wheels. The car also comes with foglamps, a sunroof, and a set of HRE alloy wheels that measure 18 inches at the front and 19 inches at the rear. The two-seat passenger cabin of this 2001 Lotus Esprit is surprisingly spacious and well-equipped for a car of this type. You’ve got an Alpine head unit and speakers, black leather adorning the seats, air conditioning, and the usual powered conveniences. However, the 8,000rpm tachometer and 220mph speedometer tell you that this is a serious sportscar and not a mere toy. There isn’t much luggage space under the hood because the spare wheel and some of the ancillaries live there. But hey, these are minor irritants compared with the fantastic driving experience that this car offers.
This 2001 Lotus Esprit packs a 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V8 that’s received aftermarket turbochargers, helping it make a reported 500 horsepower. That’s 150 more than the car came with from Lotus, and it all goes to the rear wheels through a 5-speed manual gearbox. The current owner also says that the car has AP Racing front brake calipers to help rein in the increased power.

Lotus is a British sports car maker known for their lightweight and fun to drive machines. Created by the legendary Colin Chapman several decades back, Lotus is also known for providing James Bond with the Esprit for several films in the Seventies and Eighties. One of their more modern offerings is the Evora. This is a two plus two sports car that was made between 2009 and 2021. Only 6,117 were produced, making it pretty limited-edition if you ask us. Now, we’ve got a 45,450-mile 2014 Lotus Evora IPS for grabs. This Waynesville-based car comes with a Larini Performance exhaust system, a vertical doors conversion, and was even advertised in California Lotus Calendar. It’s also got race brake pads plus standard brake pads and OEM parts, and a lifetime warranty for those vertical doors.
This 2004 Cadillac XLR is one of just 15,460 cars that showed Americans what would result if Cadillac made a modern grand tourer. Sitting on a Corvette platform and featuring a power retractable hardtop, this Black Raven example is one of just 3,665 XLRs sold in 2004. It’s got 41,675 miles on the clock, three keys and the original owner’s manual. But what’s more, this Estero, Florida-based Caddy also comes with some custom made wall art included in the sale, we’re told. If this car interests you, you’d better act quickly because as time goes by, the XLR will be recognized as a future classic, and then, everyone will want one.
Cars like this fifth-generation Millenium Yellow 2003 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 are often coveted because they are the last time that a Corvette came with those alluring pop-up headlamps. Yes, after 2004, the C6 or sixth generation did away with them due to safety regulations. If you’re a sucker for pop-ups and have always wanted to own a C5, this 23,122-mile example from Alcolu, South Carolina is particularly interesting. You see, it’s the potent, 405-horsepower Z06 variant, pairing a deliciously tuned naturally aspirated V8 with a 6-speed manual box. This car also has aftermarket wheels, the 1SA Preferred Equipment Group, the Memory Package for three drivers, and even its bright paint job is an extra-cost option. Why not make this car yours, then?
