    What did you do to your Emira today?

    This is great insight and thanks for the pictures. I'm not planing on maxing out the drop on the GRP sleeves (maybe 15mm) and I'm going to keep the stock rake so hopefully I don't have any rubbing issues.

    Planning on doing the same soon. Did you lower it the same amount on all four corners? Just wondering why you'd want to raise the rear back up when the car already has some forward rake as stock.

    Shift Knob Replacement

    Personally even if price wasn't a factor I'd still choose the enlarged OEM version that mr.suntorytime is working on.

    Bag World Bespoke bags

    These match my spec perfectly (magma red with yellow calipers). Unfortunately I don't think I'm ready to spend upwards of $1500 US after shipping/tariffs/etc for luggage when I already have workable baggage setup. Maybe in a year or two I'll splurge on a set of these 😅

    Lotus introduces Emira V6 SE and Emira Turbo - showroom debut in September 2025.

    If that's just the 96,500 British pounds converted into US dollars then I think it includes VAT. The US price should be lower, though obviously then gets our own taxes + tariffs on top.

    Yea pretty much. Basically your dealer needs to have been given an allocation from Lotus. My dealer announced when they got them and it was first come first served to snag it.

    Lotus introduces Emira V6 SE and Emira Turbo - showroom debut in September 2025.

    I had an order in for the deep green metallic with my dealer. Then all the tariff drama started and I opted to swap to a build (also mine from before the announcement of the limited edition colors) that arrived to the US just 1 week prior to the tariff implementation in April.

    Finished up the shift boot and shifter cage delete mod. Looks even better than I thought now that I'm able to see it in person. Love it.

    Shift Knob Replacement

    New owner and member here but I'd be in for one of these as well depending on pricing. Also agree with crestima, I'd personally prefer it in aluminum to match the OEM finish.

    DIY: Floating Console Modification

    Hey Cilantro. Killer work adapting the auto tray for this mod. Quick question: the new bolts you list, are those required for install of the new tray or did you just provide that in case anyone wanted to also swap to the nicer style? Wondering if I can just use the existing hardware for initial...
