    What did you do with your car today?

    no times mid/high 5s for 60-130 at sea level. I took it out to the strip once years ago with a buddy. Was there for autocross with another car and decided to bring the car to the strip unprepped since he was in town lol. Kept switching cars and only got a few passes in each. O2 ended up being...

    Hethel Yellow Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    I will note.. really the only way to stand out with this hethel is to NOT get yellow calipers. I like the look and it I don't care about trying to be a 1/1 car.. But with the minimal options available I think black and red will be an afterthought for most. I'm disgusted with myself that I'm...

    As we wait endlessly might as well get a jump start on sharing what we are doing with our.. non-emira cars and when they do show up yes the Emiras are very much invited. Fixed something? Beat the hell out of it? Instawhore pics? (please do not confuse with the common usage of this term)...

    Would you road-trip an Emira across USA and back? (dealer network worry)

    For parts that you can cross reference, yes. Unless Geely has a trick up its sleeve with some arrangement for Mercedes to service Lotus AMG vehicles then defintely not in regards to service.

    Well here is the firm answer then. Warranty items must be done at a Lotus dealer. If that has been the precedent then that isn't going to change.

    Not true - what you are referring to is general maintenance resulting in warranty work. Warranty repairs/inspection itself generally needs to be done by an authorized facility.. authorized facilities tend to only be dealer network..

    If you break down in the middle of nowhere Lotus warranty will be of no use unless you can get the car to them. I'm sure you already have the highest level AAA package, but if not I highly recommend it for your situation. It may very well not get you to the dealer if you are more than 200...
