[Another Lotus tidbit....]

did you ever check out http://www.extremeesprit.com

Johan has probably maxxed out his Esprit more than

anyone

and has quite a bit of bolt on performance parts including

turbos

[anybody ever owned a Vector?]

The Vector M12 was the next production Vector, and the first car created under the Indonesian control. Mega Tech chose a Lamborghini engine to power the M12, and the car, a modified WX-3, was designed in Europe. The M12 was better-developed than the W8 by a wide margin, and leasing was offered for the first time.

 

The Vector SRV8 was Vector's last chance to get back into the game. Based on the M12, it featured a POS engine, Porsche transaxle, air scoops, and a spoiler. This car never entered production, however.

just curious if anyone has ever owned or driven one of the Vector series cars and what your impressions of it were. definitely a striking shape.

[Haha, Lotus guys are funny]

the most popular Esprit forum is

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/forum.asp?f=17&h=0

mostly technical stuff as Esprit owners do most of the maintenance and mods ourselves. Most would agree that the car was meant to be driven hard, but some people prefer garage queens.

keep it in the red till there's no more tread I say

enjoy it and send me your old parts

[LOTUS ON DYNO RIGHT NOW!!!]

to my knowledge, Johan has pushed the V8 farther than anyone else

and has many upgrades for sale

he thinks he's pushing 550 HP or so before the NOS and Propane
