Lotus 66
The Lotus 66 is a track day car produced by Lotus Cars. The car is based on three drawings for a Can-Am racing car drawn up by Geoff Ferris of Team Lotus in 1969 but which the company did not build. The model number 66 was never allocated in period but chronologically fits in with the Lotus model numbers. Lotus produced the model after an article in Motor Sport magazine piqued interest, with the intent of it being a celebration of the 75th anniversary of the company. The planned production run is for 10 cars, each costing over £1m.
