This 2005 Lotus Elise is a pristine, low-mileage example, having covered only 2,300 miles from new. Powered by a Toyota-sourced 1.8-liter 2ZZ-GE inline-four, this lightweight sports car delivers 190 horsepower and 133 lb-ft of torque, paired with a six-speed manual transaxle for an engaging driving experience.

Finished in stunning red, this Elise is equipped with a removable soft top, dual exhaust outlets, side air intakes, a rear diffuser, and an integrated rear spoiler. The 16″ front and 17″ rear eight-spoke alloy wheels are fitted with Yokohama tires, while braking is handled by ventilated and cross-drilled discs, featuring AP Racing and Brembo calipers for exceptional stopping power.

The interior is appointed with Biscuit leather upholstery as part of the Touring Package, which enhances comfort and refinement. Additional features include a Blaupunkt stereo, power windows, aluminum pedals, floor mats, and air conditioning. The three-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a 10k-rpm tachometer, and a digital display, with the odometer confirming its remarkably low mileage.

With its lightweight construction, razor-sharp handling, and engaging manual gearbox, the Lotus Elise remains one of the most thrilling driver’s cars ever produced. This particular example is in outstanding condition, accident-free, and offered with a clean Carfax report and a clean Connecticut title. For collectors and enthusiasts alike, this Elise represents an exceptional opportunity to own a barely-driven, well-preserved example of an iconic sports car.
