Lotus is a relatively small British sports car maker who is well-known for creating some iconic machines over the years. Now, Lotus Cars is owned by the Chinese and produces gasoline as well as electric vehicles. One of their Greatest Hits from the past has got to be the Lotus Elise. Made between 1996 and 2021 across three Series, a mere 35,124 cars were produced in total. The Elise is the total opposite of what you’d expect from a modern sports car. It’s light, comparatively low on power, and diminutive. Yet, it offers driving thrills that few six, let alone seven-figure supercars can match. After all, you can wring an Elise out, threading the needle on winding country roads and listening to its mid-mounted engine roar away, all whilst barely breaking the speed limit (although it will significantly exceed that if you dare). Today’s 2005 Lotus Elise is a fine example because it’s got a supercharged engine for even more power. With under 42,000 miles on the clock, this car currently resides in San Francisco and you’d better act fast if you want it!
This 2005 Lotus Elise wears a brand-new orange paint job because, why not? After all, a car like the Elise looks best when it’s making a statement, and that statement must be made with a bright color. Of course, the car’s distinctive design helps loads, but a bright color never goes amiss when it’s adorning a cheerful car like this one. Black alloy wheels add some contrast, while the car’s top is removable targa-style for an open-air driving experience when desired. Now for the interior, and this car comes with two seats (as do all Lotus Elise variants). Here, the seats are upholstered in maroon leather. The interior is suitably sparse for a stripped-out sports car, and it’s a pretty intimate affair. In fact, the passenger gets less legroom than the driver, so choose your passenger wisely, or go it alone. However, there’s air conditioning and a radio for some entertainment when you’re forced to drive at crawling speeds in city traffic. As for cargo space? Seems like a ridiculous question but the fact is, there is some, in a small trunk behind the engine compartment.
This 2005 Lotus Elise uses a supercharged 1.8-liter 2ZR-FE unit from Toyota. Paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and rear-wheel drive, it delivers a surprisingly stunning performance to behold. Zero to sixty in 5 seconds? Yes please.

Produced from 1996 to 2021, the Lotus Elise embodied Colin Chapman’s philosophy of “simplify, then add lightness,” standing as a lightweight alternative to heavyweight German and American sports cars. This 2005 Series 2 Elise 111R builds on that ethos with purposeful upgrades that sharpen its already thrilling character. Showing just 25,000 miles, it now benefits from a Katana2 supercharger, a Silent Touch exhaust, and a host of supporting modifications including Nitron coilovers, Wilwood brakes, and Ethos track wheels. Finished in Chrome Orange over a minimalist black interior with a fire extinguisher, harnesses, and a radio-delete plate, this Elise has been carefully honed into a street-friendly track machine. With its blend of factory purity and enthusiast-focused enhancements, it represents both the essence of the Elise and the excitement of a modernized driver’s car.

The Porsche 718 Boxster was introduced in 2016 as the successor to the popular Porsche Boxster that redefined entry-level Porsche sports cars. Yes, Porsche has offered an entry-level model for much of its recent history, a sort of feeder, if you will, towards ownership of a 911 or some of the brand’s other models. That hasn’t stopped the 718 Boxster from also being one of the best enthusiast cars out there, an ideal tool for learning the basic and advanced techniques of performance driving. Regardless of which camp you may belong to, this 2025 Porsche 718 Boxster is a nice option to consider. It’s got only more than 5,000 miles on the clock and comes with 1 key plus a car cover included with the sale. The car is available in Manteca, California.
Owning a Porsche 911 is an experience never to be replicated, from its driving feel to its looks; one can only experience the quintessential sports car by being behind the wheel.

Today’s 2012 Chevrolet Corvette Z16 Grand Sport 3LT is quite a quick beast indeed. Hailing from the sixth or C6 era of America’s favorite sports car, it’s got a snarling 6.2-liter V8 under the hood, the 3LT Preferred Equipment Group, a removable roof package, and more. Plus, with under 69,000 miles on the clock, this Sierra Vista-based car is a fine upgrade for someone who seeks a sports car that can give them a good time during every drive. It’s even got a dual-mode performance exhaust to further add to the sense of theatre that Corvettes are known for.
