Lotus Esprit

[f0r3v3rl33t]

In my country, we call these mr2s.

[macnlz]

Looks more like the US-only 93.5 model year. Old style in the front, S4 interior and door knobs, but the spoiler in the right place unlike the S4.

[redmr2na]

I'm sorry but I have to comment. Looking at this gorgeous Silver Esprit, it reminds me of when Julia Roberts has to take over from Richard Gere in Pretty Women because he can't drive one. "Are you ready, Fasten your seatbelt, I'm going to take you for the ride of your life, I'm going to show you what this car can really do."

[Dukefazon]

Sounds just like in the Amiga game.

[CharlieEsprit]

That's an SE dressed as a V8 with a very aftermarket exhaust.

[Funcarsfordad]

its a v-8 and the exhaust sounds factory

[solleticara]

the last british car !!

[0348511]

does that car have a rotary engine or is it just turbo/super charged ??

[TheZonda5002]

Thumbs up if this car reminds you of a DMC DeLorean

[eduardolz31]

sounds like straight cut gears

[kangasaurusrex]

That's a 4-cylinder turbo Esprit, early 90s, maybe 93.

[NONameeSPINHO]

i always loved lotus..this isnt the best one ive seen but they are all full of charm..that backview those lights its unmistakable.great car

[lambofanX]

Nice, Brian! I made a video of it, too!

Its a pretty nice sound I think.

5*

[bballjones619]

My dad is looking to sell his 1993 lotus esprit it looks just like that but instead the rims are O.Z let me know if someone is interested

[Surannhealz]

don't normally record these kinds of cars? Its not a 350z or something mainstream.

[TheMrMurcielago]

I think it's an '01.

[tpaladino]

It's a 1990 Esprit SE with rims from a 1994 S4.

[MGazT]

sounds like a super charger whine?????

i thought they were turbo?

[Shaide69]

As much as it may sound like a supercharger... it's a turbo. Mine was a model from a year or two prior to this one... but it still had that same sound. As a turbo... no super...

[FioranoGT1]

I thought it had aftermarket exaust anyway i saw another one with no Aftermarket exaust and it was completeley Silent

[otter4x4]

Sounds incredible!

[audioconnector]

These cars are f*cking cool. They should build on the old design and modify the engine. Kind of a rare car. Good video, I love that sound.

im sorry this is my opinion, i just don't get the logic of people like you. if you took a lotus esprit and took the engine from a Gallardo, it wouldent be a lotus. people like certain veichles because of everything they are.... i like the Esprit because it had a nice ride and not alot of power. if you want power you go and get a SLR MClaren or something. just my opinion.

[ksidornseif]

hey im just sayin man, dosent have to be a gallardo engine, i just want to see a lotus supercar!

[fontheking5]

Very nice car , like the Esprit a lot , looks great , goes very fast , has a special charm to it and i like bristish cars . Sounds nice too

[GreekWarrior21]

lol man how did you find this car i thought production stop in 2001

[No1snYpeslikme]

Doesn't mean there aren't any on the road.

[applessuace]

so how much do these go for used nowadays? Year models such as 97, 98 etc.

[BrianZuksSupportTeam]

There are some Espirits with V8s!

[svtcobra7]

all the new esprits have V8's dummy.

[kryptongreen]

Sounds like supercharger whine. I used to have a poster of a yellow S3 Esprit as a kid.

[wtflawlnoob]

1 aprilXD

[Jellyform]

My 2nd favorite Lotus after the Lotus Carlton.

[Ziofbv]

Wow!

That was a very nice spinoff, Brian :-)

The good old Lotus Esprit was my favourited sports car, until i learned about the Viper in the late '94!!

[r32adt3db]

An 80's classic. I loved that car growing up.

[levizinhodonacimento]

a rare car... one of the best oldies..!!! xD... it makes me remeber Back to the future!! LOL... it looks like a delorian!! xD

[phoenixhielo]

Boxy is beautiful.

Especially when it has a V8 in the back.

[1392778]

now thats a sweet ride

[ferrarikid6711]

he has recorde fxx's

[bentleylamborghini]

great...it kinda sounds like something youd find on a tuner lol great vid btw

[SergioTwin]

The Lotus Espirit always was one of my favourite cars??,I believe in 2010 return to the market,great vid Brian

[FenderPlayed]

Always one of my favourite cars???

----Not a question, but a statement.

[biglandfarm]

yes very ???? good, ! >>,?

[TripleZ89]

NOthing wrong with showing one of these beauties, Brian... keep it up!

And yeah they had turbo-ed Esprits didn't they? Also didn't they have V-8s near the end?

[Cybiolink8000]

Twin Turbo V8s

[No1snYpeslikme]

Well it definitely sounds like it has a turbo or a supercharger.

[mikiowned]

they did do a turbo version

[CleverDjembe]

Miami Vice vibes ;P

[giovane1991]

a lil'bit old but very nice!

[primoministro460]

It' s my favourite Lotus.

[jorrie2]

Now it sounds like an Elise, I like the normal sound :P But still 5/5!

[No1snYpeslikme]

Wow, listen to the supercharger!

[SeigeCJ]

isn't it twin turbo???

[No1snYpeslikme]

I wouldn't be surprised, the turbo is pretty loud.

[MugenRac1ng]

And the original exhaust is weird. I've heard and seen this car once and it's COMPLETELY different!

[lasteve99]

so lots of rich people in california, ^_^

[Skip1989]

Correct me if I'm wrong, I think the Lotus Espirit is supercharged.

[otmlb1128]

as far as i know, they just came with inline 4's (turbo and N/A) and a twin turbo V8's.

[Skip1989]

thats what I was thinking of it was turboed not supercharged.

[p4jkafla]

Yes, incorrect. They came with turbocharged 4 pots and V8's but never supercharged.

[halflife103]

lol i asked you to find a video of it and you did XD thanks nice sound.

[BrianZuk]

Not a car I usually record, but since you requested :)

[112namrepus]

Very nice. Not a very popular car. Sounds different too. Thanks again for a great video.

[halflife103]

ya thanks a lot! :)

[SeeProfileForDetails]

@halflife103 Holy SUPRA my goodness we can see Toyota ripped this car or vice versa, which came first the supra or lotus?

[kaerfirarref]

Cool ! ! !

[cb4allstar4]

Second!! Lotus looks so much better now keep the vids coming!!

[venom5809]

My Dad had one of these when I was a kid.

Brings back memories.
