I am really surprised how flat the used Elise market is. I would have purchased 2 of them for 30k instead of buying mine new if it was an option at the time. I would have raced one and used the other as a daily driver

Final price reduction to 30K. Whoever decides to buy it also gets one free kick at my nads

There seems to be a great deal of confusion about Lotus Vehicles USED car pricing.

So, as a tool for buyers and sellers I have pulled up N A D A Lotus pricing on USED,2005, BASE MODEL ELISE with under 25,000 miles

PRICING

Original MSRP: $42,990
Low used Retail (vehicles in poor condition) $29,800
Average used Retail (vehicles in good to excellent condition) $39,800
High used Retail (vehicles in excellent like new condition) $45,525

Again, the above numbers are for base model cars ONLY. Different packages and paint run the price up quickly and you'll need to adjust accordingly. As you can see the base model lotus according to insurance underwriters and NADA has APPRECIATED in value partially due to Lotus increase in base model costs.

NADA failed to offer options for the Exige or Elise for 2006, 2007, 2008.

Buyers AND Sellers, if you are interested in actual vehicle "fair market" worth you can call an insurance underwriter for more information.

I personally am not stating worth of ANY vehicle. Simply offering information and options ( such as calling insurance underwriters) if you are a BUYER or SELLER wishing to get current market values.

Thanks

SOLD

I have to say that the Elise was the best car I ever owned and the Lotus community is by far the best group of car people to hang out with.
I will definately buy another Lotus in the future.
Good luck to the new owner, please take good care of her.
