1991 Lotus Elan SE Additional Info:

For sale here is an extremely rare car. A Lotus Elan M100. One of only 559 ever imported into the US and only for one year. This is the best handling FWD car ever made with practically no understeer.
This car is just a joy to drive. I always enjoyed taking it out on drives with the top down on Highway 1 and on windy mountain roads. This is one of the most amazing andexhilaratingcars you can own and also the least expensive exotic out there.
This car has been extremely well maintained. I have done pretty much all the reliability upgrades as well as many performance upgrades. This is a CA and not a 49 state car so has no issues with smog in CA.
