Used Car of the Day: 2021 Lotus Evora GT

Today's used car of the day is not going to be cheap.

Yes, it's a 2021 Lotus Evora GT, and not surprisingly, it will cost you.


It will cost you, alright -- almost 100 grand. Ninety-eight thousand dollars, to be precise.

There are only a tick over 3,000 miles on the clock, and the car has a manual transmission and an Alpine stereo with a subwoofer and an amp. This is one of the few cars we'll feature on UCOTD that is still under factory warranty.

If you've got the scratch and this car is your type of thing, give it a look here.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

    I'll take the red Esprit instead.

      This is why I don't show other cars in the ads of the car I'm selling.

    I suspect from reading things by people who have actually driven these that the driving experience is beyond sublime... if you have either a track or a mythical empty, curvy canyon road close at hand.


    In the real world where I live, this is just going to be a more expensive and painful way to do the same sort of driving that I can do in my $18k used BMW.

      I've driven one, it's a reasonably comfortable, painstakingly tuned race car that you can tolerate all day or all week. And the s/c V6 sounds great.


  • Ajla I did like this one.
  • Zerofoo No, I won't miss this Chevrolet Malibu. It's a completely forgettable car. Who in their right mind would choose this over a V8 powered charger at the rental counter? Even the V6 charger is a far better drive.
  • Offbeat Oddity Nope, I won't miss it. I loved the 2008-2012 Malibu, but the subsequent generations couldn't hold a candle to it. I think the Impala was much more compelling at the end.
  • Zerofoo An almost 5000 pound hot hatch that fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down? No thanks.
  • Tassos Jong-iL This would still be a very nice car in North Korea.
