Depreciation Insight – How Much Does a Lotus Exige S3 Lose Over Time? The Lotus Exige S3 depreciation pattern is fairly predictable for high‑performance sports cars. Typically, the vehicle will lose 15‑20% of its value in the first year after purchase. In the second year, a typical loss of 5‑7% can be expected, followed by a steady 2‑4% depreciation per year for the next five to ten years, assuming it remains well‑maintained and retains low mileage. These numbers vary depending on market demand and the car’s purchase condition. For a pristine 2014 Lotus Exige S3 with minimal mileage, the depreciation curve may lag, especially within the UK or US luxury sports‑car markets where collectors often appreciate high‑performance Lotus models more. Conversely, a heavily used or damaged example may depreciate more rapidly. Had you been researching the used Lotus Exige S3 price in the past year, you would notice the trend that a 2014 model generally commands about 10–15% higher price than a 2010–2012 Exige
