    Rosso Corsa 360 spyder heading west on route 20 in Sudbury Saturday night around 7pm- probably in town for the tennis tournament? Sure were a lot of nice cars on Route 20 that night.

    When I was in Boston a couple weeks ago I saw a 3x8 going the other way on rt 9 I believe. I also saw a red Cayman S and the owner let me start it up.

    Lots of fun. Great people, delicious food, nice wine, impressive art and jewelry, and we got to park our cars on the sidewalk in front of the car. And it was all free! :)

    vty,

    So I was out in the F car today, and I spotted that black Murci on Newbury St with chrome wheels. They were revving the engine outside Armani cafe with a crowd looking on.... what's the point?? I later saw them on the side of the Mass Pike with their hoods open.. weird

    red 430 coupe was cruising with the Murci

    Also saw a silver 850i Beamer with what looked like 2 teenage blonde girls driving thru Wellesley square. That was a shock. To think they prolly have no clue how cool that car is since it came out before their birth. Now that Dad has some cajones, they better not total that car.

    I guess we should be thankful to see a Murci , even in an annoying context. Better than it sitting in some garage 24/7

    Not a chick at all.

    Very nice gentlemen meet up with a few of us for a Childrens hospital charity.

    Someone with a 328 started out with the group but I assume bugged out.
    With good reason, I wasnt happy with the organizer's either.

    Sad as he was the only F-car..

    Good to hear that, only a few hundred red Giugaro designed Turbo Esprits exist. I only know of one, but it's a red 83and it has a vanity plate. ( not sure about Sunday sighting)

    I saw a new 430 spyder in sky blue in Wellesley tonight, guy driving

    The red car is a 83 Esprit from Wayland. Really nice guy.

    If any of you see a pearl white 91 Esprit SE (similar to the Pretty Woman Car) in Metrowest...it's me! I've been disappointed that no one has spotted me yet :-(. Anyways say Hi and I always love to talk cars.

    I doubt this was the same 83, I would have recognized it and the vanity plate it has from the British Car Day where I always see it.

    Post up some pics of your 91, or a link; are there any premier Esprit messageboards on the web? The British Car Day is around June 25th, in Brookline Mass at the Larz Anderson Museum. Will you attend with the car? The only Esprits I ever see are the V8s from 97-04. I think the S4S is an ideal rare collector car, I only wish I could find one with ease.

    Here is a picture of my 1991 Esprit SE...(sorry I don't know how to link)
    http://static.flickr.com/37/116622382_6d50b3a714_o.jpg

    Your right that the Lotus S4S is a rare car, but no rarer than any Esprit. Right now there are approx 5 SE Esprits (89-91) in Mass. There are a couple of S4S and to me it appears me the slighly more Esprit V8s. Michael of Michael's Motorsports (google it) in Lexington has a few S4/S right now. He also races them...he is currently running a V8, but his old car was a 450 hp 93 Esprit (4 cylinder) monster. Amazing thing to watch.

    The plentiful Lotus is the Elise...they sold 2400 of them last year in the US. In comparison Lotus only made 300 Esprits a year (world wide).

    The Lotus Community is great there is a US-based group in Yahoo Groups and also a general messageboard at:
    http://www.lotusespritworld.com/
