    Final Production Seats: A Deeper Dive

    Also, they select their cows based on strict age (and gender) specifically to ensure the most consistent hide thickness. This allows for more consistency, less waste, and better results during the shaving process. Another theme of every supplier is that they are all environmentally conscious...

    Final Production Seats: A Deeper Dive

    This will attempt to expand a bit on the development of the seats. I’m back to work now so I may not be able to answer questions right away but will get to them. @Hapkin may have additional thoughts after reading it. I do not have any photos of the final spec seats but will do my best to explain...

    Which comment are you referring to? There was definitely a mixture of both everywhere. I don’t know if the ones prepped for ship were though.

    The logistics of it all were not great. I'll give you that. I wasn't able to fly from London to the US because I couldn't change my flight out from Germany; this trip was impromptu in the purist sense. This plus other layovers and delays...yeah. I also stayed up after getting home cause a...

    Hey, you have to cut some slack here lol. I was just up for about 30 hrs getting back, slept for 12 and have only been up for a few. Maybe we were a bit premature in saying anything because now I feel it’s hyped up more than warranted 😂. Either way, I’m working on it while trying to snap back...

    I had typed this up before Hapkin responded, but got on a plane...anyways, to add on. As we first arrived, there were approximately 20-24 cars all wrapped up (plastic protection added) and ready to go outside the facility. This tells me that it's not a coincidence to have seen several trucks...

    I’m at a layover headed back to the states. Working diligently on it now. Just lots of info so I want to take my time writing this up because it covers so many topics. Then I need to collaborate with Hapkin and do a final draft. Sorry guys, I think Hapkin and I are very similar in the fact...

    It absolutely was not planned. We were the only three people of a max 8 group. I could tell something was aloof when we walked in and the entire executive team was there… after speaking with Ken, they knew Daniel had plans to visit this month, but did not know the exact date until shortly prior...

    Shit, even though I put my deposit down just after good wood, I was told by Gator I missed the FE slot by 2… I probably won’t get mine until the end of next year as it is. Nope, well I’m not exactly photogenic lol.

    They asked me if I was a journalist because I came in with a notepad and was writing shit down the entire time 😂. Like nope, I’m just trying to appease the content starved Emira forum members.

    New tidbit I’ll give while on my train back to London: Daniel wanted our names and contact info but we are still unsure why… either way, I’m still filled with anticipation. Maybe once I catch back up with @Hapkin, he can shed more light into it. So, however very unlikely, there’s still a nonzero...

    It’s absolutely been the most exciting thing that’s happened to me this year. Side note, we’re back at Lotus today. We were informed that the chairman (I assume the chairman of the board of directors at lotus /guy in the photo of my recent response) wants to speak with us. Matt Windle confirmed...

    I can’t imagine homologation would be a major hurdle for them as the power train hasn’t really changed in a decade or so. I’ll try to make notes while I’m there. Might have to bring a notebook because I’m unsure if they will let me bring my phone inside the factory. I honestly need a list of...

    I will do my best. This is actually a good one because I couldn’t care less about the i4 lol. It wouldn’t have been on my mind at all. However, given the amount of work others have put into this over the past ~2 years…work that I’ve enjoyed, I will be happy to help. Anything specific?

    I’ll be doing a tour this week. I’ve not kept up with this thread but will try to read through to see if there are things that have yet to be completely picked apart already. If someone wanted to put a list of questions together for me that would be great. I’d do it, but that seems like work...

    Water drains into the engine bay if hatch is opened when car is wet?

    I didn’t realize driving academy was a thing. This was more of a last minute decision while essentially winging a 2 week trip throughout Europe. I am in Berlin for the next couple of days before a trip to London and will be heading to Hethel thereafter. I have not planned any details of this...
