No, I haven’t done that. I guess I probably should. But honestly, so far my telephone call experience hast been great. It’s felt like a way for Lotus to be non-commit Al or to say what people think I want to hear without a written record. I guess I’ve grown accustomed to preferring a paper...

quick question.....It's been 5 days since I messaged my sales associate regarding my deposit refund but I have not yet received a response. I'm thinking of contacting Tammy McKenzie for her assistance. Can anyone in the US share with me their experience when trying to secure their deposit...

Thanks so much for this nice sentiment. I will indeed be looking in from time to time. I wish only the best for all of you with you new cars. Looking forward to hearing great stories. Best, Mike

me too. thanks. enjoy them for me.

hi everyone...... I write to share that I'm out. I won't rehash the reasons, as they've been articulated eloquently by others already. Here is my letter to my SA, Ken Scott, at FlowLotus in North Carolina. ----------- Hi Ken, Hope you are well. I’m writing to let you know that I have decided to...

Hi all. Been hovering but not really contributing lately. First, a couple of questions. 1. Does anyone actually know what percentage of deposit holders have asked for their deposits back and moved on? It sure seems like a lot of folks here on the forum are baling, and for those sticking in...

This comment was something I heard from the sales rep at the dealership I worked with when placing my deposit in the early days of Emira. Obviously circumstances have changed with the emergence of actual cars. There was a lot of info floating around early on that turned out to not be true…. Most...

Thanks, Tom.

I have definitely thought about it. It’s a terrific car. I’m not much of a German car guy, at least not in the past. But multiple wonderful cars coming from the German manufacturers.

Thanks, guys! I’m really grateful. I will try to catch up on some of the postings, but knowing how active the forum has been in the past, this is an intimidating prospect. I appreciate you guys giving me solid info. I wasn’t able to drive the car. But I have watched a few others on YouTube and...

Hi all. I’ve been away for quite a while now. I wonder if someone here in the US, or knowledgeable about the US market, can catch me up on what is happening. My situation is as follows. I was a July 2021 depositor and ended up as #31 on the list at Flow Lotus in Winston Salem, NC. Ken Scott is...

I’m in Charlottesville, VA and placed my deposit with Flow Lotus in Winston-Salem, NC. That’s where I was directed by LotusCars. Have found it interesting to hear some report they are moving up the list at their dealers because of drop outs. I’ve not heard anything but non-commital messages from...

I suspect future version will have their screens better integrated into the dash but for now people are stuck with these slapped on approaches. My wife’s Audi has one and I hate the look…just seems like an unimaginative afterthought. But I love the functionality.

Thanks guys. I was able to find the date signed from production for this car as April 23, 2012, so I’m assuming that means it was produced in 2012 rather than 2011 and sold as MY2012. Likewise, I assume that it has all the changes outlined in the buyers guide on TLF. Is that right?

Is there a way to tell the model year from the vin? Also, this car is on the other side of the country from me, so I will need to engage a local person for a pre-purchase inspection. Not sure if there is a local dealership that could interrogate the computer to be sure all the flash updates have...
