The Lotus 2-Eleven, launched in 2007, is a pure expression of the company's lightweight philosophy. Based on the Exige S chassis, it strips away all non-essentials like a roof, doors, and windscreen for a curb weight under 1,500 lbs. Power comes from a supercharged 1.8-liter Toyota 2ZZ-GE engine producing 252 hp, delivering a power-to-weight ratio that few cars can match.
Collectors prize the 2-Eleven for its rarity and its uncompromising focus on performance. It was offered in both road-legal and track-only configurations, with the road-going versions being especially desirable. The driving experience is incredibly raw and direct, making it a sought-after track day weapon for enthusiasts who want an analog feel.
The market for the 2-Eleven is small, with few examples trading hands publicly. Prices are firm, reflecting the car's rarity and specialized appeal. The average sale price hovers in the mid-$60,000 range, but exceptional, low-mileage cars can approach six figures. It's a stable asset for collectors who plan to use their cars on the track.
Buying Tips
- Inspect the fiberglass bodywork for stress cracks, especially around mounting points.
- Check for signs of heavy track use or accident damage; a thorough pre-purchase inspection is critical.
- Verify if the car is a factory road-legal model or a track-only version, as this significantly impacts value and usability.
- The Toyota-sourced engine is durable, but review service records for consistent oil changes and supercharger maintenance.
- Factor in the cost of consumables like tires and brakes, as they wear quickly and are expensive to replace.
Prices range from about $44,750 to $99,754 for top examples.
