I swear it's Jupiter Red, like my 1987 Esprit, but others claim that it is "bronze". Here they are, side by side:

(The color is hard to capture, sometimes it even DOES look a bit bronze-ish in photos, but it never did in person. It had a metallic to it, as evidenced by the small camcorder still. Wish I had a better camera in the 1990's!)

I think the guigaro design is actually better.. either the guggaro or the 2002 esprit makeover.. those are the hotties!

Lotus started off AWESOME with the Turbo Espritin 84-87 (heyday) then ended up awesome with the 2002-2004 esprit turbo's.. christ it's sad they stopped making BOTH of them..

Like the lamborghini coutach or ferrari testarossa.. just depressing!!!
