What exhaust did you go with? I’ve been looking around but haven’t been able to find good videos of cabin and outside sound. This thing desperately needs an exhaust.

Thanks for the write-up! I've pulled apart so many cars so I know that threshold to get clips loose can be high but in the back of my head I was like "I've gotta be doing something wrong here because this little panel if in there!" I'll yank it tonight because this fake noise is really starting...

Which side of that corner panel is it best to pull from?

Cool, so I’m not crazyb. It happened and I was as like yikes, I need to snip the wire and have an exhaust ready to bring the proper sound back.

Does it just take away that buzzy video game engine note? Only reason I ask is because I had a spazzy moment trying to switch into track mode(clicking the mode select button a bunch of times) when I turned the car on one day and I think whatever I did disabled the fake sound but then I legit...

That's not too hurtful knowing Ourisman and the area in general.

What is Lotus of DC charging for oil changes?

Yeah, I’m not sure why everyone is bickering about a cars origin when suppliers not being paid is the big takeaway.

Very curious if they can move cars at an even higher price. The Emira is a blast but it’s overpriced as is for the quality alone. Living with one for the last year I’d say it’s a 80k car max

We’ll see what that transformation looks like when it’s revealed. The other problem with even mentioning the possibility of a V8 is you’re slaughtering potential i4 sales. Who wants to be caught holding an i4 if/when a V8 gets announced?! I think everyone interested in the Emira should give...

I doubt a V8 will happen. For some reason Lotus has been caught off guard that US consumers don’t want a 4 cylinder DCT as the sole power plant. The 4 cylinder Caymans have always been a hard sell. It probably wouldn’t fit but a B58 would be killer in the Emira. The Mercedes euro 7 compliant...

Hopefully they’ll start back up shipping the US soon

Scary part on this go around is they are a much larger company so its harder for a group to justify grabbing them up. I hope things turn around because its a blast to drive!

This is why I was surprised of all the talk about a V8 after looking through the financials

I'm sure they will but Lotus will have to eat the increase, especially on i4's.
