In 1993 Lotus introduced their latest evolution of this classic mid-engined performance car, the Lotus Esprit S4. Featuring a stunning and distinctive exterior, a refreshing new look to the interior, major advances in its suspension dynamics, and a range of other detail improvements, the S4 maintains world-leading standards of handling, performance and style for which Lotus has become famous over the last 40 years.
This gorgeous Red over Tan Esprit was originally sold in California and then owned in Arizona. With just a hair over 57,000 miles, she is in both excellent cosmetic, and mechanical condition, and one of the cleanest we have ever seen. The car was recently serviced and is ready for your enjoyment.
