Mattyrae Report post Posted May 22, 2012 You may be right, had soo many cars sometimes I forget.. All I know is the final edition has an upgraded ECU. I did the red race ecu afterfact then.. I built the final edition over 6yrs ago. the build was covered by Modified Luxury and Exotics.. Funny, I thought all this time that Gmendoza did all that stuff to that car. I know he did personally instal the Holloway Gearbox upgrade. Did you install the water / methanol setup too? If you know someone, interested, would like to sell my Esprit. 4 cars is enough for me, just don't have the time to drive 5. Cat's has the car.

Mattyrae Report post Posted May 23, 2012 I did the exhaust, ECU, BOV's, boost control, air filters.. What do you want for the Esprit? 50k. I also have all the original factory stuff, muffler, cats, steering wheel, also have forged stainless waste gate capsules new in the box not installed. Two sets of floor mats, all service records from day 1. Owner before me bought it brand new from Lotus of Atlanta. Traded it on an Aston Martin Vantage N420. Jonathan will have it up on their site soon he says. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyrae Report post Posted May 23, 2012 50K? Yikes... Too rich for my blood.. Im more like a 40K kind of guy.. 40k will buy you an Esprit V8, but not a well sorted one with no leaks, recent cambelt change, all my upgrades, Final Edition Supension, and less than 13k miles. I even have the original window sticker and sales brochure. Just the brochure alone makes it worth a few more pennies. Here is one on EBay, will see how much it sells for, sounds similar, except the mileage, color, and different steering wheel: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...n#ht_557wt_1064 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyrae Report post Posted May 23, 2012 Stand up Yeah, saw it on your facebook profile. Saw this I believe somewhere, just can't remember. Cool too, still sad I was forced to retire from video games, but it is for the best, I was pretty out of control for a couple of years.

Ramps will be here tomorrow thanks to UPS deciding not to deliver today! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
