Description

Alone, this low mileage 2011 Lotus Evora selfishly sits in its own one car garage. It only leaves its home to make the rounds on days where the forecast is ideal. Under my nearly three years of highly pleasurable ownership, it saw the rain one time for about ten minutes on August 23, 2018, which was purely by accident. In fact, it is only washed with Aerowash and Top Coat F11 instead of water. My first Lotus was a 2006 Elise which now resides with its current owner in Silicon Valley, California. After selling the Elise, I chose the Evora because of the back seat which would allow me to occasionally haul my two youngsters in the back (my classic 911SC does not have rear seatbelts), and the Evora entry and egress are much more effortless. While exotic, I do recognize that it is not a supercar and find great benefit that the driveline is Toyota. The exhaust is stock and unmodified and it has never been tracked or driven hard for that matter. This Evora is cherished and treated with tremendous care. The paint is nearly flawless, aside from a small quarter sized buffer burn right behind the right rear tire. There are no scratches or scuffs under the front bumper. It does have a blemish on the CarFax under the second owner who struck a mailbox and did damage to the front bumper and headlight. It was repaired at the Lotus dealership and even the discerning eye could find no signs of previous paint or prior damage. It was very minor. No airbag deployment and no damage to the subframe, suspension, or other components. It was purely cosmetic. I purposely sought an example with a minor blemish as I had plans to change out the front bumper cover for the one you see today. It is a Heathelsport Evora 400 style bumper. I find the original bumper cover to look like a catfish and I did not want to be the first to apply paint to a flawless, low mileage example. The bumper was installed and painted by a restoration shop that specializes in laying down $30,000 paint jobs for show cars. When matching the paint, the PPG rep drove in from Houston (about 100 miles away) to assist in perfectly matching the paint to the factory color. So there would be consistency in not only the paint color, but the grain of the paint as well, we chose to paint everything from the front windshield forward. The result is flawless. It has also been treated to a roof wrap in black with matching vinyl on the mirrors. This was professionally done by a company that specializes in commercial vehicle wraps. There are no bubbles, rips, or tears in the vinyl, and a high-performance 3M outdoor rated vinyl was used. Under my ownership, it has benefited from a few other upgrades. It has the power folding mirrors and the daytime running light bypass. The bypass was done correctly with no “fast blink” and the front bumper LEDs are operated when the parking lights are engaged. The traditional 45-pound battery was replaced with a five pound lithium-ion battery with accompanying battery tender. Because the previous battery lost all power and was dead, the airbag light is currently illuminated but should be rectified before the new owner takes delivery. It can be reset with an SRS tool capable of programming a Daewoo Gentra, with which it shares SRS components. Again, this is due to the previous battery being drained and replacing it with a new one, which can be verified on the Lotus forums. The interior dome light has been replaced with an automotive LED lamp. Another common issue is the brake sensor adjustment which causes the traction control light to illuminate. The brake sensor has been replaced with a GRP brake pedal switch from Monkey Wrench Racing, which still needs some adjustment. The traction control light only illuminates periodically and usually after several minutes of driving. The cruise control is still functional which points to a healthy brake controller simply in need of an adjustment. I am not built to crawl around on the
