This is a super car in every sense of the word!


Runs superb, and no current issues...turn-key and ready to go!

Perhaps the best of the Esprit model...fast, beautiful and as exotic as anything else on the roadway today.
This is a car that gets looks!


The car has not been modified or hot-rodded.
Other than the upgrades mentioned above , the car remains very stock and original.


The car is located in Orange County California and is privately owned.


Paint and body are excellent.


No wrecks






A very cool looking machine , and so clean in the bright white.






Tires are excellent on all corners












Moonroof






OZ wheels allow the big Brembo brakes to show through


The front trunk space has the spare and jack and full tool kit.


All very clean.






Excellent


Interior is superb




The engine bay


Rear trunk is all very clean.


The cockpit is fantastic and with the upholstery color and the woodgrain it has a very classy
civilized appearance. Full instrumentation, everything works.




The seats have been fully re-upholstered in leather.
The original leather seats were showing just a little edge wear on the drivers side
and the owner wouldnt stand for that...so both seats were redone professionally
and were done entirely in leather...originally they had leather seating surfaces and vinyl sides.


Beautiful!


Insert supermodel here.










The carpet on the rear deck as you can see through the window is perhaps a bit faded from the sun
but not so much so that it would require replacement.




Glass is all excellent and all the factory applied stickers remain affixed.




Originally a vehicle destined for California, it has the decal still in the window.


Clean front lower edges...not all scuffed up or peppered with stone chips.












In closing this is a wonderful car.
Adult owned and well treated, California car since new.
All the maintenance has been done as it should be and everything kept tip-top.
You will have a hard time finding a cleaner example for sale on the market today.
