2006 Lotus Elise - Storm Titanium (Maryland)

SOLD!
Are you looking for an Elise in fantastic condition which has been loved by each of its previous owners? Each one whom has added clean and well thought out modifications since its original purchase? If so, I am glad that you are both an enthusiast and have landed on this "for sale" ad. I have owned this Elise since March 2014. I am posting it for sale as my family and I are planning to move abroad for a couple of years. I would not hesitate to drive this Elise across country - it is in amazing condition and is a real head turner. I am asking $32,500 for everything listed below. Additionally, I have a brand new NCI Full Race Splitter that I will sell to the new owner for an extra $1,000.

History
Clean title! Zero vehicle accidents. In November of 2015 a ladder fell onto the rear clam and produced a 3" crack. As many locals will attest I only accept perfection and as a result I had a full repaint, using BASF Glasurit, a new rear clam, and all new seals installed from the front windshield backwards. All parts were purchased from Gator Motorsports - I am sure Dino will vouch for all of this. The Elise looks amazing and has none of the normal front clam blemishes that an Elise/Exige of this age normal has. Photos of the original damage and throughout the repaint process:

There have been 5-6 "owners" as I recall 2 of those were dealerships whom were recorded as owners while they were trying to sell it - a normal practice on how things show up on KBB.

Recalls
The Elise has had both the oil line and AC resistor recalls completed

Added link to photos of the fixed rear clam damage, disassembly and repaint. During the repaint I had the body shop fix the normal underside front clam damage and fill any holes from the stock plastic grills that would show once the mesh grills and Craft Square mirrors were installed.
