12. Lotus Esprit
Lotus is a brand you rarely hear too much about. The cars have a loyal following that has stayed with the company through thick and thin. Lotus is more of a reserved company that develops a driver’s vehicle. When you think of the Esprit, you envision a car that is not only fast but also very responsive. There were some cool aspects of Esprit such as the exterior styling. The car had a bit of Countach blended into it, minus the giant wing.
The issue with the Esprit is the expensive cost of upkeep on the car and lackluster resale values. Both of these issues make the Esprit something that should be avoided as a sports car.
