1997 | Renault Sport Spider
Seller's Introduction
Overview
Engaging, exotic, and intriguing from every angle, this 1997 Renault Sport Spider defines different. Produced from 1996 to 1998, this mid-run example shows the icon at its best with dramatic contours finished in a Yellow and Silver two-tone. Beneath a double-width roll bar, track-ready faire tallies leather-wrapped Recaro bucket seating, VDO instrumentation, and a tactile 5-speed manual shifter. With fewer than 2,000 units built, the car remains a best-kept secret in Euro roadsters.
.
Lightweight fiberglass bodywork wraps artful aluminum chassis construction, concealing capable hardware tip to tail. Double-wishbone suspension, inboard Bilstein dampers, and mid-mounted 2.0L motivation lend eager dynamics with sure-footed composure at the limit. RWD only, this Renault takes square aim at enthusiasts seeking a rarified and unique experience behind the wheel. Clad in Toyo Proxes tires, upgraded OZ Racing wheels sourced from this Spider's Trophy-variant sibling sit mounted over Yellow brake calipers for a coordinated aesthetic. Now showing just 51k km, this Spider is sold with thorough recent service records alongside a clean Carfax report, Canadian registration, and Seller’s Disclosure.
