Craigslist Find: Sexy '86 Esprit

Every generation of the Esprit has been a sexy car, but this is (by a very wide margin) the best looking Esprit we've seen. This car not only has low miles, but is relatively stock as well. The only modifications stated by the seller are lowering springs, HRE wheels,  new clutch, and several transmission mods. We love this car and hope that the next owner can care for it as much as the seller has. Find it here, in Knoxville, TN, for $14,999.

Craigslist Find: '69 Lotus Europa

The Europa is definitely one of the more odd profiles to come out of the 60's, but that doesn't mean it isn't beautiful and a ton of fun to drive. This particular car has had a nice upgrade to a Gordini Cross Flow motor and is currently being fueled by twin Weber DCOE's. There is some fine tuning that needs to be done as there is a fuel level issues with the Webers. This car looks great overall and should make for a great bargain for any enthusiast at $11,500 OBO. Find it here, in Canyon Lake, CA.

Craigslist Find: Cheap '77 Lotus Esprit

We like the Lotus Esprit and we've seen some very interesting things done to these older models. Everything from swapping the motor to a GNX turbo v6 and Nissan 350z VQ35 to stanced out stunners. They're undeniably cool and at $8,500, this is the cheapest  one we've seen in a long time. The seller is also willing to trade for a ski boat if you just so happen to have one collecting dust in a barn somewhere. Find it here, in Oregon City, OR.
