lotus again

as you well know i post every esprit i see just because i have one and they are my favorite.... well today i went hunting for a rumored orange lamborghini gallardo and ended up stopping at the jaguar/land rover dealership and there were two esprits being worked on, both 2000+ models. the red one only has 4000 miles on it but is sadly being sold to someone out of state. the green one is from iowa.

so me, and my friends dustin and sam went to the star wars exhibit at the mn science museum. it features TONS of actual props and models used in the filming of the star wars movies. i only took pics of the stuff used in the first three films because the recent three are not as cool in my opinion and definitely not as revolutionary...anyways, heres everything:
