Rock stars and sports car go hand-in-hand, but rarely do they overlap in design -- that is until you meet the Lotus Evora S ‘Freddie Mercury’ Edition.
The Lotus Evora S ‘Freddie Mercury’ Edition pays homage to Queen's former frontman who passed away from complications of aids. The car has a white body with a red and gold stripe running from the front towards the back. The interior features a beautiful black and yellow theme with the latter color paying homage to one of Mercury's 1986 stage costume. The back of the seats features a Union Jack with a crown and the dashboard on the passenger side has his signature scribbled lime green.
The Lotus Evora S ‘Freddie Mercury’ Edition will be auctioned off for a good cause. All proceeds will go to an organization actively involved in AIDS research, treatment and awareness.
