-Non CARB states will most likely get delivery before CARB states. (Unless CARB happens between now and ship arrival)
-All cars should be...
I received this email message from my SA at Bellevue on Thursday:
"Lotus Emira FE V6 V1 update
We are expecting the first group of Emira V6 FE coupe's to arrive in November/December.
I just wanted to reach out to you so you could have a closer timeline and plan for the expense and collection...
I've searched and can't find a supplier stateside that sells the Emira paint yet. I have a hobby project I'm working on... customizing a scale model to my spec.
Lexus has a similar color... I think anyway. Have not seen Nimbus other than the small paint disk... and that was over a year ago.
Citizen! These are amazing! (me being bias as your spec is mine as well) Thank you so much for posting these! Being delayed to Oct-Dec means I have to live through your photos and experience! Thanks again for posting... keep them coming!!! 👌🏽
Don't get me wrong... I understand the Emira isn't for everyone. I'm fine with that. For me it just feels right for what I desire in a sports car and I have to remind myself this is about me and not what others think I should have.
I'm going to chime in here. I have owned multiple Porsches... 9 to be exact. Mostly Spyders... all generations (987.2, 981 & 982). Driven many 911s, most recent being 992 GTS at Laguna . Porsches are definitely more capable. On paper they outshine the Emira all day. I feel like anyone can drive...
Awesome to see another Portland resident!
We definitely need to meet up! Pending deliveries of course... whenever that happens!
Fall?/Winter?/Spring? Winter just might be more limited! Haha!
