Or, conversely, what if you only wanted the 91 tune to be on the safer / more conservative side, but use 93 octane fuel? Would it automatically detect and change to the more aggressive 93 tune? I saw on the burgertuning website FAQ that it can "auto tune" but unclear if that can be turned off.

I had this problem pretty consistently for the first few months too. Now, and for the last ~6 months, I don't have it at all (knock on wood). I have done no software updates since delivery, and can point to no changes in driving habits. Who knows why this fixed itself, but I hope it stays...

While I agree with this statement, Lotus is not unique in these global market conditions, and other manufacturers, like Porsche, haven’t wavered in the same way that Lotus has. A horrible customer experience, limited dealer network, and quality/reliability concerns coupled with everything you...

Thanks @Dragoon for this video. You’ve given me some confidence to (maybe) try this myself and the third cat delete at the same time. I have only ramps, so appreciate any feedback if anyone thinks this could be done successfully without a lift. Also, anyone confirm if the magnetic drain plug...

For what it’s worth, I’m probably going to 714Technik based on @99Problems feedback. They are further away for me than some of the other shops @Jump_Ace mentioned, but I’m glad they have already worked on an Emira.

I’m still interested in this too - I haven’t pulled the trigger yet, and my first service is coming up soon.

Funny, I thought the same thing at first. Those marks are so small and tight that it must have been someone doing doughnuts in a kids ride on power wheels 😂

Keep on raising prices, Lotus! While you’re at it, only produce a small amount of cars so they don’t flood the market. Then in about a year, discontinue the Emira entirely. Boom, guaranteed future classic!

That's a horrible lease offer. With the 10% down, you're paying $53k for a 3 year lease on a $102k car!

Welcome! If you apply some pressure to the truck lid and hold the trunk release button at the same time, it will work.

SPACs are generally a bad investment and only benefit a few at the top. Lotus had no right to be a publicly traded company.

Correct. Some might not really care though, and ultimately it is doing the job of protecting the car.

I think it depends on the film too. I had Stek installed instead of Xpel because I was told it was easier to shape and optically better. As a result, my vents were removed and the film folded in with no seams / relief cuts. This was a few months ago, and still no signs of the film lifting.

Ugh, that sucks, sorry. If you don’t mind sharing, when was the car manufactured, and do you normally keep it garaged?

Huh - that's pretty cool! You going to put it on the driver seat too? I think the font difference would bother me.
