The Bordeaux red really looks nice in the sun light.

When the sun goes down the color does change.

Cago net is a joke. I mean you can fit a small book in it. Thats about all it will hold.

looks stunning. seems to be darker than the old Ruby Red colour on the UK cars. I like it.

Interior fit and finish was top notch!!!

Lotus sales consultant Ramsey Naylor in orange shirt talks with Lotus customers who have their orders in. I must say Ramsey is a top notch super nice guy. I have scheduled an upcoming test drive with him.

Nice rear!!!

Look here a DOT emissions pass sticker. Wow I guess DOT really does look at these cars.

As one can see sun light really does have an effect on Bordeaux red.

I have to say in the sun light bordeaux really looks rich. It's a very nice color.

:clap: Beautiful. Now see, in those first pics it has a more cherry color tone. But the one's Surfer posted look more rusty brownish. WTH, Chameleon colors.

Yes Esprit the 3M looks great, you can hardley notice it. I have to be honest you really only need it in the front. Lotus puts it all around the car front, rear, and sides. I think it's $1,000 option from Lotus. You can have the front done for a couple hundered bucks which I might do.

Ramsey is one smart sales man. He knows not to leave this thing around Lotus nuts too long as he gets ready to put the sweet thing back into the showroom at Princeton.

I would also do the leading surfaces of the rear fenders. You will be amazed at how much stuff gets thrown at them from the front tires. Lotus has been building these things for years - they know where the paint damage occurs.

Well, at least it give you somewhere to put loose papers and stuff so that they don't blow away, since we don't have a glove compartment.

Love that color. I was sorely tempted, especially after I saw the car that the guys drove to the LA Auto Show. Even on a dark rainy day, it looked nice.

Thanks for the photos.
