1983 Lotus Esprit, Gateway Classic Cars - Tampa #1880

Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this sharp 1983 Lotus Esprit. The Turbo Esprit debuted in April 1981 and final incarnations of the Giugiaro-styled Esprit were announced in April 1986. This 1983 is powered by its original numbers matching 2.2L 2,174 cc Turbocharged Inline 4-cylinder engine and mated to the factory 5-speed Citroën manual transmission with only 45,157 actual miles. With limited production and such low mileage, this Lotus is a collector's dream. The current owner is claiming to be the 2nd owner and has enjoyed it for the past almost 5 years. Painted in the factory Calypso Red with 15" BBS wheels, and black stripes down the sides, this car turns some heads when it drives by. A mid-engine euro car with a 5 speed transmission, driving this car should bring a grin to your face. Features on this car include air conditioning, AM/FM/Cassette player, power brakes, alloy wheels wrapped in radial tires, power windows, power locks, and so much more! If you are looking for a unique sports car, something to collect, or even a fun driver, this could be the classic for you! Do not let this one pass you by as it will not last long.

I noticed your VIN number ends in 60314. I live in Lutz and my Esprit VIN number is 60311. FYI- the 6 means produced for the US, (Federal car), the last 4 are the SN. Only 343 were built in '83 and 150 of those were imported the US.
