A sporty Esprit that's been in GT for years and I want to see it as a premium upgrade. I'll let the "lotus Esprit world" website explain a bit about it.
I honestly hope Polyphony Digital models a premium version of the Esprit 350 someday and maybe even in those other colors mentioned, if they can find them that is.

The Sport 350 is the most extreme version of the Esprit ever to reach the market. Developed from the already awesomely rapid V8 road car but encapsulating much of the brake, suspension and handling technology gleaned from two decades of GT competition experience. This is designed for the Esprit owner who wants the ultimate track day car.
In total Lotus will construct just 50 cars, each will be fitted with a limited edition aluminium plaque at the base of the windscreen in the centre of the dash, all of which will be offered in the same silver/grey/blue colour scheme with blue, not red painted cam covers, and priced at £64,950. 2 out of the 50 have now been comissioned in White, 1 in metallic Black (which will be the Company Directors Car), 2 in Black and one in Ice Blue. 8 units were also shipped to the U.S. Badged as 350 they where really spruced up V8-SE and even had the engine covers in red instead of the 350 blue and aren't really considered as true Sport 350's.
I honestly hope Polyphony Digital models a premium version of the Esprit 350 someday and maybe even in those other colors mentioned, if they can find them that is.
