Hi Stunters!
Two days ago I started the buiding of the Lotus Esprit Turbo SE '89.
Here are the corresponding specs to this model:
DOCH Inline-4 2174cc 264hp
0-60 in 4.7s
Top speed :165mph
weight: 2929lb/1329kg
After a few hours of work the Lotus got it's shape for car showroom
Where are the fins? And the weapons? And the little sticker warning you not to hammer the window? [/Sorry, perhaps I do need to see less action movies.] ;)
Looks cool.
Beautiful!

Yep - be absolutely sure to at least include a white colour :)

If all that stuff come in stock version, I had to put them too :P
Yes, white and british racing green ;)
After some "hard" work in 2 days a month ago with the 3d shape, this week I finalize the dash and the performance specs, so at last I can declare tha the Esprit is ready to go!
I has a good handling and has also some control over drift. the performance is comparable with the NSX but it has the turbo "punch" that improves the 0-60mph mark. It was fine tuned as allways with the great CarTest simulation program.
The dash was made from a Lotus Esprit dash bitmap of the "TestDrive 2 The Duel" Amiga version(that has 256colors) and edited to match some real photos.
Some screenshots of the "British racing green" and the "007 white" paint jobs, the dash and in game 3d model and finally the download on the bottom.
I hope you all enjoy it ;)
Possibly the prettiest/cleanest model to date, great work! The handling behaviour has its own interesting nuances too... it should give the Skyline some good competition, by the way ;) Also, I just made it available from Southern Cross, alongside with my car swapping tool.
:o
we have a new car for 2011 :)
I don't know if the COVID pandemic has had something to do with it.
But a lot has happened here since then.
