1985 Lotus Esprit — Excellent performance, especially for a mid 80s car. Decent build quality with a few minor rattles. Beautiful timeless lines, not overdone. Interior is snug & functional. Hard to find knowledgeable mechanics...Absolute blast to drive and very rare. It attracts a crowd everywhere it goes (unfortunately that includes law enforcement...) Pros: Unique,beautiful,fun to drive,dependable & affordable (for an exotic car) Cons: Hard to find a good tech who knows these cars, especially carb. versions (76-86) ![]() Looking for a Used Esprit in your area?CarGurus has 11 nationwide Esprit listings and the tools to find you a great deal. |
