2017 Lotus 3 Eleven

This 2017 Lotus 3 Eleven, finished in the Black and Gold John Player Special livery, represents the pinnacle of Lotus’ track-focused engineering. With only 311 units produced, this example, numbered 015, does not come up for sale often. It embodies the lightweight, high-performance ethos that Lotus is renowned for. This hand-built, street-legal track car combines advanced aerodynamics, cutting-edge materials, and uncompromised driving dynamics, making it one of the most exhilarating cars ever made by Lotus.

Under the hood, it features a supercharged and intercooled Toyota 2GR-FE 3.5-liter V6 with dry-sump lubrication, delivering an impressive 460 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque. Paired with an Xtrac six-speed sequential transmission and a limited-slip differential, the 3 Eleven accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in less than three seconds. Its carbon fiber body, bonded aluminum chassis, and race-spec components make this car a pure driver’s machine.
