I have a 2007 Storm Titanium Lotus Elise for sale. In near mint condition, it was just service approximately 400 miles ago in November at FVMC in Hinsdale. New rear tires a few thousand miles ago. Has 11283 miles currently. Options - star shield, premium pack, hardtop, traction control and metallic paint. Hardtop has been on car a few times and has been stored in the stock cover. Runs great, very little to no wear in the interior. Has stock Alpine stereo and speakers with iPod dock. I've owned it since June of 2011 - bought it in Texas when we lived there. Its been in storage in the winters since moving to Chicago and comes with a custom Dust Eze cover that fits it like a glove. Bone stock other than the floor mats and buttons which are brand new (Not OEM, but carpet grade). I have records from the past few years as well as original sticker. Only blemish is a small paint chip on the drivers side near the marker ( 1/4") and a blemish in the fiberglass from the factory (per FVMC) in the rear clam. Neither are noticeable. Leather has been treated with 'Hide Food' for the past couple of years, so it is very soft. We are moving back to TX and I don't want to ship it back -it is scheduled to be picked up by the truck, so I will ship it back to TX if it doesnt sell. . Any questions, please ask.

Race Recap: For the 2013 Monaco Grand Prix, NASCAR comes to the principality
Tue, 28 May 2013Lots of contact, debris cautions, trips into the wall, full-course yellows and a red flag - these are the kinds of racing terms you unbox when you want to have a conversation about NASCAR... or the Formula One grand prix of Monaco. In this case we're not talking about the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte, we're talking about 78 laps in the South of France that even featured a fallen camera cable just like that stock-car race.
This year, Mercedes-AMG Petronas drivers treated their chassis' like busses instead of F1 cars, Romain Grosjean treated his Lotus like a battering ram, Sergio Perez kept sticking his McLaren's nose in places and eventually got it smacked, and maybe the size of the drivers' mirrors should be changed instead of the tires as there were almost as many firsts as there were crashes. Plenty of F1 fans wish Monaco were removed from the calendar, yet even though it doesn't specialize in traditional thrills, that doesn't mean nothing happens during the parade through - and into - the barriers.
Lotus to layoff a quarter of its workforce
Thu, 18 Sep 2014Lotus has issued a press release to day, wherein it indicates that a "need to both reshape its organisation and to reduce costs" may result in the loss of "up to 325" jobs. That's a fairly significant number of layoffs for any company, but considering that Lotus currently employs 1,215 people (per the company's bio in the same release), it could mean a full 25-percent of the automaker's workers could soon be sharpening their resumes.
CEO Jean-Marc Gales says in the statement that Lotus has "worked very hard to avoid the need to make this proposal," but admits that it is now "essential" to the future of the company. The chief indicates that post-restructuring, he expects Lotus to be a "leaner" and "more competitive" organization, one which - and we can all see a little silver lining here - is focused on "producing class-leading sports cars and innovative engineering."
The 325-job number appears to be soft at this point, with the statement indicating that some negotiation about which and how many posts will be cut is yet to come. Further, the company may "redeploy" some employees, and may even recruit new blood for "key roles," all with an eye toward running the strongest possible team going forward. Though, we imagine that the recruitment bit won't fly well for those employees getting the sack.
