    This has been an interesting process to say the least. Salesman send random text message asking how my day was going; 30 minutes later I was advised my car is "On the Water". I paid the Initial deposit on 11 Apr 22 Received build allocation on 29 May 24 Second deposit paid on 29 May 24...

    Baltimore is open again but I suspect it should be a matter of contracting transport from the port to the dealership. Most dealers have the volume to clear this process in days or 10 days worse case scenario; but like everything else this process is atypical, 40+ days at the port is insane.

    Thanks for sharing your experience. I finalized my order with Joe on 31 May 24; my order was submitted on 4 Jun 24. So comparing your timeline, it would appear I am looking at another 4-6 months. I paid my initial deposit on 11 Apr 22. So it would appear it will be approximately another 2-4...

    Came across earlier today...dealership in Nashville has several Emiras available, but there appear to be a dealership markup at least on the one they have loaded the pricing information: https://www.lotuscarsnashville.com/2024/Lotus/Emira/SCCLEKAX5RHB10645 (list price is $114,900)...

    From Deposit to Order Timeframe

    I contacted my salesman last week to obtain an update on when I would be able to submit my Base model order as I missed the cutoff for the First Edition/2.0 orders. I was advised the Base model orders couldn't be placed until the online configurator was updated. I placed my initial deposit...

    Thanks...I initially was working with the guy in Nashville, but after waiting nearly 2 weeks for him to send me the form to pay online I thought it was a prelude of what would be in store for me from a service standpoint. I opted to contact the Atlanta dealership and immediately received the...

    They didn't know what their allocations were going to be as they hadn't been released. At least that is what my sales person told me...things were fluid because of delays in production and certification. Estimates were 3rd Qtr 2023 I would be able to submit my order for a Base Edition and...

    Benjh1028 indeed, I am not frustrated as I waited 17 months 4 years ago when I purchased my Alfa Romeo 4C. My thoughts overall is, there should be more official visibility into the process. For example, insight into the allocation process or providing a listing where depositors rack and stack...

    Today marks my 1 year deposit anniversary, so I decided to reach out to the sales agent at Motorcars of Atlanta for an update. The only update I have received over the course of the year has been the dealership monthly newsletter and inquired I have initiated. I was advised the dealership...
