My 1980 Lotus Eclat. One of 31 produced for 1980, out of a total run of 1500 or so from 1976-1982. She has the enlarged, 912 series, DOHC 2.2 liter straight 4 putting out 160 HP to the rear wheels, with a 5 speed Getrag box. She's fun, and gets up there REAL quick. It's the same as the Elite, just with a regular coupe fastback end instead of the pseudo wagon end of the Elite.
