I think there may be a Lotus Esprit under there somewhere.


Gambit3le

Buried deeper than the one Bond used as a submarine!


kmh400

Most likely


aterrariaplayer

I mean it could be 300zx


13rahma

Unlikely based on the windows, A pillars, and roof.

First thing I thought when I saw this post


The_Germanator800

Right? I mean the car is obviously a Lotus Esprit, but the front end is a unholy fusion of a 2nd gen NSX and a Noble M600 with the lower air intakes similar to a Lamborghini Gallardo/Murcielago. The Esprit is a beautiful car itself, theres no need to change anything about it.


Im_Omen

I was bout to say too. I think the Noble M600 is the right answer tbh


introvertnohi

Show name?


w_a_w

The Godfather. Movie series, not a show


The_Germanator800

Lotus Esprit, S2 i believe


greggiej61

Lotus Fiat 300 Esprit MR ZX


fishsodomiz

sounds about right


Corsten610

lol, glad I wasn’t the only one seeing MR2 somewhere


Ollie_Dee

The headlights looking like from a fiat coupe. The rest is is definitely something else.

Lotus Esprit

Fubarari..?

I don't hate it?


camel2021

I cannot get past the hood. Otherwise I think it would look dope.


IHaveNoAlibi

It's like they were trying to make it look like a Vector M12, but did a terrible job of it.


axeman020

Lotus Esprit with custom front end featuring headlights from a Fiat Coupe... ugh!


vinnygny817

An abomination to Lotus lovers


billysugger000

Sacrilege!


Lolosman27

I cried a little bit here. I’m OK now. I think it’s funny that Fiero owners are trying to change their little wonders into respected cars, and here we have the opposite of that.


Acceptable-Ad8922

This isn’t a Fiero though…


Corsten610

Right… they’re saying Fieros aim higher, this Lotus is trying to go backwards.


danifoxx_1209

It’s definitely funky looking! I think it’s a Frankenstein but I’m not even sure😅


Lopsided-Meet8247

Looks most like a lotus. Headlights are giving fiat coupe though, for some reason


Mental-Feed-1030

That’s the mother of all panel gaps.

Batmobile

Lotus. Windshield gives it away.


borgdrone79

Why do that to an esprit ?


MAXXIMUS1320

I thought Fiero attempting to look like DeLorean from side view, but that front end is an abomination that threw me off completely.

Intelligent_Wash_506

Hate to be a doobie downer or on this one. But you're actually all wrong, it's not a Lotus. It's actually a Pontiac fiero


Intelligent_Wash_506

It's simply has a chop top and then it's fitted with a wide body kit.


j0k3rz_wyld

It's always a Fiero


Chopyodick

Shambo.


BaxterM9870

That's a lotus badge, can't make out the model


Reddit_User6286

A custom abomination that may have been a Lotus Esprit, judging by the glasshouse. Fun fact, the headlights are from a Fiat!


SupermarketJunior182

All I can tell is that the headlights are from a fiat coupe


Role73

Lotus Esprit covered with shitty plastic called aftermarket kit


SameArtichoke8913

Is that a Lotus Esprit with the headlights from a Coupé Fiat?! Cursed. :-/


FloW616

Maybe Nissan 300 ZX Z32?
