Anyone here joining the Yorkville Exotic Car Show this year with their Emira or any other Lotus? (or even other cars)

Did something similar in my Seneca Blue, was halfway through black PPF on the roof when I decided I wanted to try keeping the blue A-pillars too. Might finish the job at a later date, kind of like how it looks right now.

Was talking with Paul again when I brought my car in for oil change, it seems they've gone ahead and partnered with a new PPF installer/detailer, they're now using Mina from Le Mans Detailing. They're definitely a reputable shop with lots of customers in the local Porsche and Mclaren groups.

Lux tax would only apply on new car purchases, or the first time it is entering Canada, so it's slightly different from HST/RST which gets applied every time there is a new owner. I think 'out the door' pricing is ranging between low $150s (if no lux tax) to mid $160s (with lux tax), also...

Mirrors are fully covered in 2 pieces for painted surface, all the black pieces/trims on the mirror are fully covered as well

Just a little update for the members who I was discussing my PPF journey with. (Background info for those who haven't) - I took my car to MakeItShine Detailing for a full car PPF and black PPF on the roof. We decided to go with STEK Dynashield (they also had Xpel Ultimate). Kaval had laid...

I was #30 with a July 2021 deposit. I know a few other people who picked up their cars were around my deposit # and time frame. From what I recall, Gentry had about 12 allocations at first, of the FE1, and then when FE2 was announced that's when they received more allocations to take actual...

@ Mods, Is there any way we can move this into the regional - Canada subforum? I think it would be more relevant there and would help more local GTA (Greater Toronto Area) members find this thread.

Just an update, spoke with Brian from GL re: the HVAC/AC motor resistor. There is a "Service Bulletin" published by Lotus already, so these will all eventually get replaced on the Emiras. However, there is not available stock on the revised parts yet, so GL is currently replacing any faulty...

Been reading up on the USA/Canada delivery thread, and it's insane how much the freight/pdi fees have gone up in the past month. Any one take delivery recently at Gentry? Are they still around the $5k mark? Seems like Montreal has upped their price to match Vancouver/Calgary and are now at...

It's a common and well-reported problem. I would suggest giving GL a quick call to give them a heads up, so they know how many of their parts are going to be used up and can restock before they run out. As I understand it though, they've already pre-emptively ordered enough for this part to be...
