I sold my GP edition to a friend - he loves it.
BTW, slight correction - it is not JPS livery. It is meant to evoke the return of Lotus to F1 and hence has the exact livery of the 2012 F1 car.
Picture here: Lotus E20 - Wikipedia
Note the gold outline stripes and the red mirrors.

You are right to say this Evora doesn't have the JPS livery, but it is meant to be evocative of that livery (rather than saying it is just a copy of the 2012 F1 car).

This is admittedly kind of pedantic, but the color scheme chosen by the so-called Lotus F1 team for 2012 (and I say "so-called" since it was just the former Renault F1 team that was bought by Genii Capital and named after branding partner Group Lotus) as it was meant to evoke the classic JPS colors of the Colin Chapman era Team Lotus.

On a related noted, Tony Fernandes' Lotus Racing team had licensed the "Lotus Racing" name from Group Lotus through 2011, but that license was terminated after 2011 allowing the Genii Capital group to license the name for use in F1 instead. Interestingly, Tony Fernandes privately owned the "Team Lotus" name and was considering racing in 2012 as "Team Lotus" but relented as that would have been confusing to have two separate "Lotus" teams in F1. That paved the way for the name change to "Caterham F1 Team" and their use of the iconic Green and yellow cars first made famous in the pre-Gold Leaf and JPS days.

I love that livery; looks even better in person!

Has anyone done the same stripes on a different color Evora?

Looks cool. I thought there was a white one out there with the gold stripes?
