Hello fellow Lotus spokespersons and logistics officers. What is the latest word on selling this car to North Americans? We gonna do it this year or just gonna keep fuckin around? I hate to be the bearer of bad news but there are a lot of people here that really seem to think their dealership...

Ok followed up with them and was told, “If you have ordered should see car March or April 2024.” So take everything I posted with a big grain of salt. To be honest I don’t think any of the dealers have any useful info until they actually get word that cars are being delivered. Sorry for any...

I am going to follow up and see if they were confused or something just to make sure. Saying order would be put in February 2024 makes no sense so hopefully dealer was just mistaken.

Referring to #2 in line at that particular dealer for V6 FE 1.0 I think. You guys really should just stop with all this 1.0, 2.0 shit it's confusing the hell out of everyone.

Yep my order was confirmed 5/20/2022.

This has sort of been my position as well. Want to hang onto my deposit now just to call their bluff haha. These cars might end up being rare here because they don’t really seem to want to make them for what will probably be their largest market. What blows my mind is just the absolute lack of...

Yes agreed. Would like to see what they know also. My dealer has been open sharing any info they get from Lotus but hard to believe anything now since they have continued to just tell us lies. None of the numbers or anything mean anything to me anymore. If production really is delayed until...

I don’t see how my order wouldn’t be a FE V6 1.0. Deposit placed in July 2021, order put into lotus officially May 2022. Not that any of that shit even matters anymore none of those original dates ever meant anything anyway.

This is what I was told by dealer in Bay Area today. Is it accurate? Who he fuck knows. Probably the 3rd time I have been told this with different dates swapped in. To be fair my dealer has been pretty open and sharing info whenever they have it available. And are just as frustrated as I am at...

Has there been any meaningful update from Lotus on people with original FE V6 orders? Still saying end of this year for first NA deliveries or has that not even been confirmed yet?

Yeah I really don't understand whey the fuck rev hang is a thing. It just makes the engine feel super unresponsive.

So excited they are doing an Ohlins TTX kit for the Emira! Can't wait to see all the stuff the develop.

I will be doing a test drive in Marin on the 18th. Things happening is pretty exciting.

There is quite literally a "Running-in" section of the handbook. As well as extremely detailed service intervals. https://www.lotuscars.com/download.php?file=128440&key=fee48a8a25c3337c594c96c8a24748c6&disposition=inline
