!UPDATED! POLL: How many of you have placed a deposit and where are you from?

[NickR]

Ahh, but do you spell it Nicolas? Most in the states do it Nicholas for some reason.

The customary English spelling Nicholas, using a ch, as though the word were spelled in Greek with a chi, first came into use in the 12th century and has been firmly established since the Reformation, although the spelling Nicolas is occasionally used.

 

[Daz]

The name Darren comes from Latin , which can be abbreviated to Daz. It means , rough translation, handsome one or very attractive to women - true

Has anyone bothering to put a deposit in after February 2022?

 

[Krisjc21]

Made a deposit on Feb 10 2022 California 97th on the waiting list but a couple of days ago I was updated and now 76th on the Wait list I was told a few people cancelled . at my dealer and was told looking a late 2023 or early 2024 delivery so hopefully more people cancels their reservations lol because the wait is just annoying and alot of cars are coming out as time goes by with the same specs or even better . I hope when I finally get the Emira it won't feel like driving an old model car ..

 

[~el~jefe~]

it will be one of the only non lame, non flying heavy turd "electrified" cars left. You will feel like you are getting A CAR vs. a flying battery driven smoothened lump of overpriced turd. It is worth the wait but I am concerned most that i have to pass on a 718 Porsche to get this, and if i do, i might be passing up on the last mid engine sports car forever. (i predict someone kills the EV propaganda at some point in 15 years, but it will be a while before the public understands how crappy battery EV's are.)

I put down a deposit last week. I'm not in a rush. Gonna let the early buyers deal with recalls and manufacturing defects lol

Maybe you’ll get a car by 2025

Lol that's fine. I got too many cars right now anyway. Still having a blast in the Exige.

 

[NicolasB]

So far only around 25% of members have cast a vote! Keep them coming.

 

[Daz]

I’m thinking of moving to Italy, looking at the votes, I will not be seeing anyone else in an Emira maybe coming across lots of Lamborghini, Ferrari and other Italian exotica mind

 

[NicolasB]

Over 300 votes, but I am thinking there are sooooo many more on here that haven't voted yet.

Ciao a tutti, ho fatto una prenotazione a maggio 2021, spero buono ..

So sure I'm late to the party having put down my deposit on Sept. 10, 2022 and don't expect a car anytime soon. I see the list of people who have put down their deposit but how many of you have placed an actual order? How long did that take from the time of your initial deposit?

 

[RENDERMAN]

So I can fly to Norway, walk into a dealership and pick up the car on the spot?

I put down my deposit in late May 2022, took about 5 weeks to get an email from Lotus HQ with an order number.

We need to start hanging out together, I put my deposit the same day as you, think of the positive, we have more time to think about it while they sort all this mess out...
