    Lotus of DC

    For me text wasn't the only form of communication, just the most effective for a rapid response. Sorry if that was not clear, although I agree it seems very difficult to get them on the phone..

    Lotus of DC

    I agree, with both points - been there for service, and warranty work. On my second visit Anton came in on his day off to ensure I had an explanation of all the updates as well as to ensure all the paperwork was straight. The biggest issue I had with the second visit was the scheduling of the...

    Emira Center Console Deconstruction - i4 AMG

    I have been searching, unsuccessfully, for the service manual pages on the deconstruction of the center console of the i4 variant. Specifically the area just under the shifter. I am trying to install a custom made part, and need to ascertain the best way to route some wiring with as little...

    Custom Floor Mats For Emira

    I think Lotus switched over to the post stye not long after they started delivering to the US - I have seen some that have the screw type, but most have the post type. I agree with @jetblast - I have the diamond pattern w/ the post, and it is not noticeable at all. I wonder if the Modern Line...

    new 2024 Meridian for 5 K off sticker

    My i4 has be 100% trouble free, even before the most recently applied 7 updates. Only thing I have found that Lotus Engineering is still trying to sort is the "Rear Indicator Fault" light comes on (very, very rarely), and it does not affect indicator function. To make it go away - just turn the...

    EVO: BMW M2 v Porsche Boxster GTS v Lotus Emira v Alpine A110 v Ford Mustang

    :ROFLMAO: - someone has NEVER driven a Jeep Wrangler. I know, its not a fair comparison, buuuut... I daily a Wrangler, and after driving the Emira for a while (sometimes a couple of days at a time) and then switching back you will really understand what "jittery" and "exaggerated" steering feels...

    Adding a subwoofer

    With you on this idea - would be nice to wire up to be more "OEM". Looks like this is on the stock sub (from the picture), so I wonder if the connection, being post stock amp, would have an issue with a powered sub and cause issues. Thinking, head unit-->stock sub-->powered amp sub--> speaker...

    Wow - I might be going to the I4 Darkside

    They are the same - JQ Werks (MadTrace). I think Aerie just offers both Normal and Extended lengths, where as GRP just has the Normal length.

    Wow - I might be going to the I4 Darkside

    Finally found some time to drop my i4 Emira off for the updates - took two days, and I was told 7 total updates (yellow). Also found out that Lotus engineering is STILL trying to resolve the false indictor fault issue. I was given the same update in March '25, so 4 months later still no...

    iPhone holder win!!

    My insurance policy explicitly calls that out, it was one of the questions I was asked when they put the quote together - "You are NOT going to use the vehicle to provide ride share services, like Uber, Lyft etc., right?" :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

    Hello from Maryland

    ⬆️⬆️ I took care of that very easily with the green wire snip - 10min. job, mostly because I added bullet connectors to reattach if I wanted. Sounds much better..

    Hello from Maryland

    I have the AMG i4, love the way it drives and sounds great - although not the throatier sound of the v6. Think I saw @DerTheDer still has his v6M for sale - very low miles, and in Virginia.. https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/2024-emira-fe-nimbus-gray-105k.6435/
