Vehicle Description
Lotus of Bellevue, the Northwest's Headquarters for all things
Lotus, is pleased to present this fantastic 2008 Lotus 2-Eleven.
The All Composite Bodied 2-Eleven is powered by a Supercharged
1.8-Litre 300hp/179lb-ft 4-Cylinder Engine (this example features
an upgraded ECU and Pulley, along with Race Exhaust System and
Header), that sends power to the rear wheels through a proper
6-Speed Manual Gearbox (with Sector 111 Performance Transmission
Cooler). Lotus' racing-derived braking system has been upgraded
with GiroDisc Rotors and Pads, and is very capable of rapidly
diminishing high rates of speed. It's a lightweight track car and
features further enhancements with SubStiffy Rear Chassis Support
Brace, Enlarged & Baffled Oilpan and Enlarged Fuel Tank with
Upgraded Fuel Pump. It has no doors, no roof and no concessions to
comfort. You can't drive it on the road, but when faced with a long
ribbon of empty tarmac (road or track) the Lotus 2-Eleven sings.So
what makes the 2-Eleven 'sing'? It's all about weight -- or lack of
it. Overall, the 2-Eleven tips the scales at 670kg -- around 200kg
lighter than the Elise S -- but packs a whopping horsepower
increase from its 300bhp supercharged, four-cylinder 16-valve
engine. The 13-piece fibreglass bodywork is constructed with a
material called Coremat that is pretty much the strongest nonwoven
material available. The result is a car that can sprint to 60mph in
3.8 seconds, 100mph in 8.9 seconds and reach 150mph.The Lotus
2-Eleven injects pure adrenaline directly into your jugular. Few
cars react as quickly to driver inputs and reward with such extreme
layers of feedback. The acceleration is instant -- no lag, no
pause, just immediate throttle response and an even spread of power
up to 8000rpm. Play with the launch control and the 2-Eleven
juggles revs and wheelspin in a brutal spectacle of raw
acceleration. There's a determined aggression to the way it
systematically goes to work. The sustained, insistent urge of the
supercharged motor is truly impressive, as is the way the car puts
that power down.That increase comes courtesy of a Lotus
Sport-tweaked supercharged four-cylinder, upgraded and massaged to
produce 300hp. Coupled to that is the familiar six-speed manual
transmission, which is aided and abetted by a variable traction-
and launch-control system.The 2-Eleven offers little to distract
you from the job in hand, namely immersing yourself in the
elemental thrills of driving. Sitting low in the car, with just
your helmeted head bobbling around in the slipstream, you feel safe
rather than exposed, and although the roll cage is extensive it
rarely intrudes into your peripheral vision, while the trio of
cool-looking mirrors provide a generous field of rearward
vision.This very special Lotus is available for viewing in our
Bellevue, WA showroom. For more information on this 2008 Lotus
