2007 Lotus Exige S

The sleek and powerful 2007 Lotus Exige S, crafted in the heart of automotive innovation in Hethel, England, is a striking example of British engineering. This rare vehicle, once called home during its heyday by the sun-soaked streets of Manhattan Beach, California, bears the unique serial number 498, signifying its status as one of only 265 units produced worldwide that year. The Exige S maintains its distinctive characteristics to this day, boasting a lightweight aluminum and steel extruded body that contributes to its curb weight of just over 1300 lbs (590 kg), allowing for exceptional agility on both track and road. Its supercharged Toyota 2ZZ-FE inline-four engine, producing an impressive 217 horsepower, is mated to a close-ratio six-speed manual transmission, delivering power directly to the rear wheels. This sports car, first manufactured in 2007, showcases its sporty nature with unique features like its manually operated canvas roof and its signature red fabric seats with silver seatbelts, adding a touch of luxury amidst raw performance.
