At intersection of Harrison and Chatham as I was driving thru old downtown.....I'm not much into Ferraris and Lambos and that shit, but the SLS was amazing....truly floored 12/17/2010 6:10:56 PM |

it definitely says tesla on the back. sorry for the crap picture, i was trying not to die while fumbling with a touch screen phone in 7 lanes of 80mph traffic. (it was actually a lot heavier volume that that picture would have you believe) 1/22/2011 1:02:23 PM |

There, got the picture working.
I realize showroom pictures aren't that impressive, but given that the car is 1 of 82, I think it's worth it. Technically more rare than a Bugatti Veyron (there are 105 of these in the US). 1/28/2011 3:02:18 PM |

^^what are you trying to say? That was pulling into a lot as I was leaving. I think those are 20s, and they poke about 1.5'' from the fender when looking at it from the rear. 2/8/2011 9:29:53 PM |

It has the 4 rear lights and prancing ponies on it. I don't know enough about them to know what it is. The wing looked aftermarket, like the wheels. 2/8/2011 9:41:54 PM |

its a lotus esprit v8, there were no prancing ponies or ferrari on it

I just noticed the tag on that Ferrari. I wonder if that is my buddy Tom's... The tag on the Porsche before I bought it from him was 944 Poor

So that's what makes it a Ferrari!

Given that the Lotus Esprit was produced for over 25 years it's not asking a lot for the average auto enthusiast to recognize it.
Nice pic though, I've always loved those Esprits; especially the V8 twin turbo model. The wing is stock, but those wheels aren't - and yes I agree they're horrible. It's an envious car that only weighs 2800lbs. Food for thought considering the lightest Ferrari available currently weighs over 3500lbs
