    Anyone looking to swap their touring to Sport suspension?

    Harrys Garage did a pretty good comparison between the two. He made about 3 different emira videos. try this one: You are right, they are fairly close but clearly one is more on the track focus vs touring. I do more touring/commuting than track work so I bias towards the touring. Are they...

    Anyone looking to swap their touring to Sport suspension?

    if i get desperate, i still might look you up. I've actually been ordering a fair amount of parts from Bell and Collville, great to work with. There are a few salvage vehicles in your area that probably have salvage parts you can buy for a good discount.

    Anyone looking to swap their touring to Sport suspension?

    Is anyone in NA interesting in swapping their touring shocks/springs for the sport shocks/springs? I have a sport suspension that I would like to move to touring. I would be interested in a shock/springs swap if it would benefit someone else. I have about 14k on my sport suspension now.

    Clear coat came off while applying PPF

    im not saying it was the fault of the PPF installer but it is always recommended to heat the ppf prior to removal as it softens up the adhesive a little. its too late now obviously but i would highly recommend that for any additional ppf removal.

    Painted my garage!

    very nice. I love seeing garage pics and workspace. Everyone has different homes and living situations, its so cool to see how people adapt their space and take care of their vehicles. Its not easy designing cabinet layouts to maximize working space.

    Anyone used color PPF as a wrap?

    Greetings fellow Emira owners/fans! I have a black emira, I got a good deal on it and it had the interior I wanted/V6. But I had to "settle" with the black which I am not a huge fan of. It was a compromise I had to make which is fine. I would like to switch it to the seneca blue via colored...

    Will incremental price increases in Lotus Emira reflect in used car market?

    i dont think so. In fact, i think that if Lotus keeps increasing the prices the used market will remain pretty solid for a period(how long, i dont know, it depends on market saturation). The big big problem is the price increases are not making them competitive. I dont think the market can...

    US used car market confusion

    i've been studying the used market for over 2 yrs now. I am waiting for a break in the pricing. you are right, everything is still high. there are a few factors at play, and this is going to be much much different than the UK market. 1. Very limited supply still 2. Limited V6's 3. Low...

    Pricing Thoughts....

    you raise some solid points. Cayman is a little long in the tooth by now, i've never been a fan of the turbo 4 banger but to each his own. Many people end up going to Porsche route for dealer support. And you are right, to go NA in Porsche world at 400 hp, you end up paying a little more than...

    Pricing Thoughts....

    My perspective is the US market so options like the A110 aren't available but are good barometers. If we are comparing auto/dct, all similar setups: Cayman starts at 75,400 USD. Corvette starting 68,300. Supra- 56,900. Lets be honest here, A LOT of value is riding on the Emira looks. Does...
