USA/Canada Delivery Thread

Lotus Philly received 4. Your talking about the lotus philly on West chester pike? I drove and saw two of them Seneca Blue and a green one! The other 2 were being prepped.

Yes. They received four cars from the 3/29 boat. My car was on that boat but was not one of the four they received.

Data point: my car has arrived at Bellevue as of this morning. I'll swing by tomorrow to take a look.

Yep, I stopped by Philly on Sunday to check them out. The Seneca FE got delivered to the lucky buyer yesterday. They also have a Atlantis Blue with Ice Grey interior getting delivered soon.

Just got the call from my guy at Park Place in Bellevue. My car is on the truck on the way from port, and should be at Park Place about Monday. I'm getting full ceramic coating, so after everything and having it delivered, I'm guessing I'll have it maybe the 1st week of May! Just in time for Spring!

Denver delivered their first on Friday, and another going to a lucky owner this Thursday.

Say hi to my car while you're there. I'll be in Saturday to take delivery.

I'll take photos - let me know which one is yours!

I spoke with Lotus of Pittsburgh this afternoon and they have only received 2 cars so far. They have not received any word from Lotus NA regarding the others. I’m guessing Baltimore is inundated with PDI work and we are stuck in limbo once again.

I received an email from Lotus of Boston yesterday that my car was at the dealership (3/29 Newark batch) but they were waiting for the MSO (Title) from Lotus before they could prepare financing. I think I’ll go and visit the car this weekend if nothing else!

What the? Something’s not right with that. Car can’t have been here since December…. All Lotus dealers are low volume…. I thought I was being left behind with a Sep 2021 deposit but you are even father in the dust. My dealer clearly didn’t want to waste time as every day it sits on their lot they are paying interest on inventory.

Same here. My car arrived in Baltimore in Dec 2023. No updates from dealer on when they expect to have it.

Killin' me! I haven't gotten "the call" but my DV and tan car was on that boat on that day coming to that dealer! Maybe tomorrow the phone rings and ...

Oppression olympics? I'm at 995

Just discovered another fun little metric that we can use to quantify our collective waiting — if you tap / click on the little badge icon of your profile pic on a thread that you've posted in, it will say how many posts you've made in that thread.

Ha! Even I didn't know that. Nice find!

You need to call Lotus USA about this. That's insane.

Contact info? I'm in a similar boat and I'd do it if I knew who to call. Dealer (Gator) hasn't provided any information.

Wow, that is crazy! I thought my situation was bad...my car was being processed in port six weeks ago and my dealer (Gator) can't or won't tell me anything definitive. I wish at least one dealer would have a clue how to communicate with us. If they were to share some data, that would at least help. I'd like to know how long their lists of customers waiting on their Emiras are, which cars (if any) they've delivered and what # in that list they represent, how many they're delivering each week, etc. It could all be kept anonymous...just car spec, status and # in line. Something like:

1. Hethel Yellow 1.0 Delivered 4/1/24
2. Magma Red 1.0 Port Processing
3. Vivid Red 2.0 Delivered 3/30/24
4. etc.

That's interesting. I was in touch with Lotus Cape Fear recently, a new dealer here in NC, and they said that they've delivered nearly 20 Emiras already! I've seen several of them here in Raleigh. I think I would have been better off with putting a deposit at Lotus Cape Fear than Gator where I'm waiting...

Hello, other gator people,
Are you waiting on a FE v1 or 2? Also, out of curiosity, what was your deposit date, if you don’t mind d sharing.

To avoid having Gator replies lost on this huge thread, I created this Gator-specific one. I'll post my response there and hope you will too. The Gator thread
