Making Its Debut As Giorgetto Giugiaro’s “Silver Car” Concept In 1972, The Production Lotus Esprit Arrived In 1976 And Lived On, Until 2004. For Nearly 30 Years,
This Distinctive Fiberglass Wedge Combined Supercar Looks And Performance For Far Less Than Comparable Italian Exotics.
The Esprit was again improved with the GM multi-port, electronic fuel injection system and the addition of a water to air intercooler, which Lotus has named the Chargecooler, producing the SE (Special Equipment). This inline-four engine was known as the Type 910S. Horsepower was pushed up to 264 with 280 available on overboost and zero to sixty miles per hour times reduced to 4.7 seconds with a top speed of over 160 mph.
Several modifications were made to the body kit as well, like side skirts which are parallel to the body, five air ducts in the front air dam, wing mirrors from the Citroën CX and the addition of a rear wing.
The Styling On The Esprit, Especially The Peter Stevens Designed Examples, Have Become One Of The Most Iconic Of The Era And One Was Used In The 1990 Movie 'Pretty Woman'.
Even Today The Esprit Looks Exotic And Sleek.
Total Production Of 779 Lotus Esprit Built, ONLY 698 Units Were Turbo Esprit Made For The 1990 Model Year.
