Kinja'd!!!

Driven by a pretty older lady in Prada sunglasses smoking a cigarette. Idk who she is or what she does, but her life is way more interesting than mine.

Can anyone identify the model of this car? Looks like an Evora, but I’ve never seen one with a rear like this. It looks like it has an integrated spoiler and has only two red tail lights...

? Lotus Evora. Toyota V6 in a $70,000 Lotus body. I’ve heard they’re great.

Sounds like Lucille Bluth got divorced and received custody of her ex’s toys.

Reminds me of several years ago, I saw a meticulous looking older woman who reminded me of a 70s era Jackie Onassis, driving a BMW 507, I kid you not. Probably an interesting story there.

Excellent point.

Anything or anyone involving a 507 has to have an interesting backstory. Or background, at least.

Edit: I had to look up Lucille Bluth.

In Grand Prix Jessica Walter was the wife of the British driver who has the big smash (and she becomes an, er, sideshow for James Garner). It seems you were spot-on.

I finally found it. It’s almost certainly an Evora S 2+2.

You too, can be interesting. I arrived at this 89 Esprit Turbo after dismissing an Elan (FWD, interestingly known as a Kia Vigato in Japan), and then an Esprit for $19k, as this one at $21.5k has like 70k less miles than the $19k one.
