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 [1] but which the company did not build. [2] The model number 66 was never allocated in period [3] 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. [4] The planned production run is for 10 cars, each costing over £1m. [5]
