1990 Lotus Esprit

What do you guys thinks a 1990 Lotus Esprit Turbo with 64,000 miles is great condition is worth? 4cyl. with manual trans. I will try and get pics asap.

Maybe $15K? Good luck--I hear they are absolute maintenance nightmares...

I'd say closer 15-20k depending on how great of condition. A personal favorite of mine and an Espirit is on my lottery wish list. Too bad Alaska doesn't have a state lottery...bah humbug.

Thanks, I'm thinking about buying to re-sell. Its a repo and I should be able to get for around 10k. I should have pics Monday. The previous owner still owes over 16k if that means anything.

Bit of a nightmare in maintenance, Turbo's on does things kept going pretty easy.

If you'd buy it to re-sell.. I would'nt spend a lot more than the 10k you're planning on.

Personally, the only 4 cylinder worth considering, is the S4s.
