Want To Own A Piece of Movie History? Check Out the Pretty Woman Prop For Sale

Are you in the market for a new set of wheels? This beauty “corners like it’s on rails”. The Lotus used by Richard Gere and Julia Roberts in iconic 1990 movie Pretty Woman is for sale. According to the sales advert for the car, both Ferrari and Porsche declined the opportunity to be featured in the film, not wanting their cars to be associated with solicitation. Fair enough, you might think, but Lotus had the last laugh as the runaway success of the film led to quite the jump in sales for the manufacturer. In fact, their sales tripled in 1990 and 1991. Now, the car that brought Gere’s Edward Lewis and Roberts’ Vivan Ward together can be yours. The 1990 model has only 23k miles on the clock, and if you can drive it like Vivian could you could well be in for the ride of your life. The car has an estimated value of between $55,000 and $90,000.
