... Lotus Espirit for less? !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Or buy an older museum-worthy one for the price of a bone stock Mustang GT:

Yes! Mostly because I really want an Esprit.

If you’re going to own the 8-series for more than a year, I’d recommend the 840Ci, maybe an earlier year.

^^^ Timing chains and guides.

But that V12, when it works, is wonderful :)

I’d say the 850 would probably be more reliable, but they’d both be a pain to keep in good repair.

just sold a v12 . :( i think i should rightfully not get into another one so soon. but the primary reason for e32 is the v12. car shopping is fun.

What awesome cars (when they work).

That black one is amazing. Look at that engine!

Kinja'd!!!

I would feel bad driving it too much though. So if I had to choose, I would totally rock the red one.

I could spend some time in that leather capsule.
