Any 04 Final Edition Esprits for sale

Anyone know of any 04 final edition esprits for sale at any dealerships that may be hiding or in waiting for someone to spot one in a corner? I may know someone that is looking for one. May consider an 03.5 as well but would prefer final edition first. Thanks.

Feff is right about the Orange 04 Esprit at Mid Rivers Lotus.

http://www.midriverslotus.com/New-In...oryId=12790174

There isn't much of a Lotus market here in St. Louis (at least not like on the East and West coasts).

It seemed like this Esprit was sitting in their showroom forever but months ago they moved it outside where it sits exposed to the elements. It gets washed every now and then like some Cavalier at your local Chevy dealership.

Some don't get it.

God luck -- I tried to buy that car about 6 months ago and after repeated non-call backs I finally got ahold of someone who said they'd make me a "great deal" and promptly knocked about 5 k off the original sticker. The original treatment left me with no desire to negotiate with them on that.

I bought an '02 V8 from them years ago under previous ownership -- was a great purchase. Night and day from my experience with the orange car.

5K off a 3 year old car, (mileage not counted), with a warranty that may have expired.? Sorry, they would have to do quite a bit better than that.
Even if it is Co, my personal favorite.

that 2004 will not last long..

I did an autotrader search on 02-04 esprits and this black 04 and another silver 04 are the ONLY cars that came up..

Then for ****s and giggles I did a search on ALL v8 esprits '96 to '04 and only got 14 RESULTS..

can you say RARE?!

I love it
