Description

Lotus Esprit 
In this episode, I cover the Lotus Esprit, A supercar built by Lotus in the 1970s that was designed to change the image of Lotus, from a kit car manufacturer to a supercar builder. Although the Esprit started out fairly underpowered, through the generations this car would start to make big power, eventually using a twin-turbo V8 engine capable of 500 hp. This car was the catalyst for Louts' transformation.  
Thanks for Listening!
