Description:

The car is in excellent shape, you are not going to have any problems to drive it.
If you interested in the car, plz do not hesitate and make an offer, do not worry about my feelings if u think the offer is low, the offer doesn't bite, so it will not shed my blood and I always can decline it, counteroffer or ... accept it, you never know.
For sale is the one of the best street/track cars on the planet. However, what makes it amazing, no power steering, is the reason I am forced to sell it. My doctor has diagnosed me with torn ligaments in my bicep and shoulder and as a result, I’m forced to part with my favorite car in the whole world.
The second reason is that I passed 65 and it's getting more and more inconvenient to get in and out and the ride is a noisier and shaky then I would prefer now.
I'm the second owner for this beautiful Lotus Exige 220 S and it was purchased originally with 11, 000 miles, to which I’ve put on an additional 57, 000 miles myself.
Of the additional miles that I added 70% were on highways, 20% on the track, and 10% on the streets.
I stopped tracking it for 2 years now, and almost stop driving since the injury progressing, so the suspension and wheel alignment tuned to perfect street driving.
The car has had no incidents at the racetracks or anywhere else, but unfortunately, a few years ago while driving on the street an old Mack truck did not see that I was in front of it on a red light and started to creep towards the light. Because the entire car is fiberglass and the truck had guard rails, even though it was an accident at about 3-5mph there was damage to the fiberglass to the left rear which is visible in the photos. There was absolutely no damage to anything structural, as it was purely a cosmetic issue, which is why I decided to not get it fixed.
If u want to repair it, that's not a problem.
Today the fiberglass is not a problem to repair.
The Fibertech fixes the cracks and scuffs - heavy material that is a mix of Fiberglass and Kevlar - but very strong.
There are many benefits to using the Fibertech brand of fiberglass reinforced polyester (FRP) and fiberglass reinforced concrete (GFRC) by Wilson Composites, LLC. It produces an unsurpassed building material with an exceptionally high strength-per-dollar cost. Our Fibertech products do not rot or rust, do not absorb water, cannot be damaged by termites or other insects, and feature a long-lasting composite surface.
The car is super reliable, I'm not a poor man and never save money on cars, especially track cars of which I have had many.
The safety driving on streets and especially on track is the most important issue and for that the machinery must be kept absolutely healthy and money was spent without limits keep the cars in best shapes.
The very positive side of the Lotus is that parts are relatively inexpensive because it's a small car and easily endure the pressure since it's a light car and was designed for track use more than for street use.
The car has some cosmetic wear and tear as any car with mileage.
The official name of the color is Canyon Red.
The sum of doors number 939 totals 21 - Blackjack Game winning number.
Although the car is now used for street driving only, it was prepped for the track - street (I drove to and back from tracks in this car on these tires) from the start and includes many aftermarket parts from Sector 111:
Aftermarket Stiffer sway bar
Sector 111 slotted rotors
Pagid RS14 brake pads 60% - 70% left
Aluminum Radiator
New bushings
New Tie Rods
V2 Fuel Tank
V2 Oil Pan
Upgrade brake lines
Carbon Fiber larger roof scoop
Upgraded Intercooler
Trackmate
Rear Camera (Requires LCD display)
6-Point Harness System (However they are expired 2015)
Tires: Bridgestone Potenza R11 with 50% tread life
New, recently changed, stock OEM supercharger
Practically new Bilstein PSS10 adjustable suspension
New, just about 15, 000 miles gear box
New Larini exhaust from Sector 111
The car was extremely well maintained by the Intermecanica in Mamaroneck, NY which is well known for dealing with Lotuses only.
There was no money spared in car maintenance to ensure that it was and is in perfect health. Fluids: brake, oil transmission, filters and other small parts were changed religiously especially in the gear box which loves the fresh oil.
The car is in great shape mechanically.
I’m also providing a compact toolbox with the necessary equipment to change brake pads as well as perform some other routine maintenance by yourself fast and efficient, especially the brakes.
The car is a dream to drive, and given that it did track duty I made sure to replace all of the stock components that are known to fail, which makes this car not only extremely reliable but also won’t require any major maintenance from the new owner. It’s ready to go. And if you haven’t driven one before, you will probably never want to drive another car again. Read any of the reviews and you will quickly see that even Ferrari owners prefer the drive and feel of the Lotus Exige.
