Lotus Elise Black & White Editions Announced - Porsche envy

UK pricing has been released for the Lotus Elise Black Edition and the Lotus Elise White Edition.  The two packages can be purchased on either the Elise R or SC trim level, and include painted brake calipers (red or silver), blacked-out forged wheels wrapped in AD07 tyres, and a black diffuser.  The black edition comes in Lotus Sport Black with the tri-stripes in Phantom Black.  Aspen White with Ice White stripes is used for the other model.

Savvy readers in the audience will notice the similarities between these packages and Porsche Design Editions 1 & 2.  No matter; we think the color schemes look great here as well.

British dealership Bell & Colvill will sell each option package for £1,950, translating to a combined savings of about £5,000 when compared to the separate purchase of each item.  What is a bit unclear is if Edition customers are required to pay the extra £979 for the Lotus Sport paint.  If so, this makes the actual package price a bit closer to £2,930.  Add-ons include a £979 air conditioner and traction control for £294.

The Lotus Elise Black Edition and the Lotus Elise White Edition are now available for order.
