The Lotus Elan, an unsuspecting giant killer

The Lotus Elan is the unexpected giant killer, created in a time where large and heavy V12 engined machines were dominating the track, the Elan brought something completely different to the scene. It was light weight, nimble, and completely unexpected. Lotus is well known for its small and sporty models, however the Elan has always been a very underrated car. Those who know what a fantastic machine the Lotus Elan truly is have come to love it for its excellent power to weight ratio and awesome track capabilities. This Lotus was modified for the track, with an upgraded engine built by Veloce Motors along with sorted through suspension. Because the Elan was such an underrated model for so long, many of them were neglected over the years and would need a lot of work and money to bring them back to life, however this car has been sorted through already so there are none of the scary surprises, like chassis rot, that an unsuspecting potential buyer could fall prey to when purchasing an Elan. This Lotus is not only a fantastic track day car, but is also smog exempt in all 50 states and is street legal, making it the best of both worlds. Whether you are looking for a fun and amazing sounding car to take to weekend cars and coffee or a fast and lightweight track day car, the Lotus Elan is the perfect choice.
