Lotus Esprit spotted in Salt Lake City, Utah

Details on This Lotus Esprit:

  • Location
    Salt Lake City, Utah
  • Description
    This is the V8, twin turbo manual trans with originally 500 bhp and de-tuned to 350 bhp to protect the gearbox. Sadly that couldn't protect it from the valet driver who was burning the clutch up as he tried parking it! Beautiful dark blue paint and cream colored leather interior and it sounded amazing! There's also another unique car in the background of this photo!

That is a V8. The S4s is a 4 cylinder. There is no such thing as a V8 S4s. She is a beauty though. Good spot.

Yeah there's some cool stuff there. Just warn people not to leave their car with valet or the clutch will get burnt up haha.

Yeah, I probably see the same amount of exotics as natem, at least in Utah. And I have seen a few Maseratis at that Land Rover dealer.

You got it Lamborarri, and yeah here in Utah there is a lot around but you have to know what areas. I see at least a couple exotics a day, but I drive a lot.

Awesome! Sweet spot, my friend was in SLC for a week and saw absolutely nothing! The "unique car" is a Fisker Karma.
