Pricing is now incorporated into the Lotus configurator. The high $$ (7,800) colors aren't included. Loading up the car without high $$ color; comes in around Total Price (incl. Accessories) $123,700.00 That's without destination fee and tariffs. US delivery price without sales tax may...

I've leased several cars, typically it ends up costing more, but cost wasn't a primary factor, more so piece of mind (didn't care about them). Really depends on the terms. With the cost rising on new Emira's the older ones will probably hold there value better. What are the terms? does the...

[I live in Maryland. I transferred my order from Philly to Rockville when i heard a dealership was opening in Maryland.] MajHall04 I ordered from Philly as well, then tried to transfer DC. No dice, Philly rejected my request, must have been just after your request. I will say Lotus Philly was...

[can't wait to see how much everything is going to be for 2026.] With every option and prem paint + tariff==> thinking $130k That will certainly make up waiting 2 years and getting 2024 MY... and 10 months later be able to get a 2026.....purely a mental thing - lol

https://www.lotuscars.com/en-US/emira As usually lots of inconstancies for US market, 0-62 mph instead of 0-60. UK site has 0-62 for the Turbo at 3.8s. US site is 4.0s. So odd. No pricing yet. Only new option I really would like is the [Blind Spot monitoring] and [Lane assist]. You can...

Great pictures. Keep those coming, not many pictures out there of chassis without the skin. Any idea if the plastic vents in the second picture release air into the bumper skin cavity and release air into the rear black ports? I noticed there are very small vents at the top of the ports.

[Baseline (91 Octane): 387.5 hp / 311.5 lb-ft] With a parasitically loss multiplier of 12.5 % for a rear engine DCT, that suggest stock config is over 430 HP, which would be inline with C&D 0-60 figures of 3.4s JB4 map 2 comes in around 500HP. 60 to 70 HP is a good amount of HP to pickup. Will...

Yes It is manual. Test drove the Auto, while it paired well with the turbos it really wasn't very impressive. Auto tech in the 90's wasn't that great.....

100 octane, lol I bet it's amazing, must be making over 500HP. Do you have a draggy ? would be interesting to see if your able to break in the 2s. maybe 0-60mph in 2.95s ???

I still have my RX7; bought new out of college. Tacked for bit in my 20's. Didn't drive it much afterwards. Only has 5,900 miles now. Still smells like it's off the showroom floor inside. A similar RX7 in the county next to me sold for $148k a year or so ago. Had similar ultra low miles....crazy

["Can Lotus survive its latest crisis?"] Hopefully they've produced a stockpile of body panels; if the Emira line doesn't survive the crisis and is shuttered ....

Hi - Lotus F1 - what was 1/4 mile ET on Map 4?

[a 0.6 sec decrease in the quarter mile time (map 4). I think that's pretty substantial.] Yes, think your 1/4 mile improvements are the strongest so far and would likely represent a strong 60 HP pickup. What is map-4 again is that E30 fuel? I recall you posting 0-60 3.2 sec - right? What...

[ mclaren like performance.] :) well all the modern Mclaren's will smoke our cars even modified ones. But ...... the Emira's Look better !! IMO.
