I can appreciate the fabrication work to get the larger mids into the doors properly. Watching the video; i hadn't realized the KEF's were only 3" two ways. 6.5" would have been a better move. I could pass on replacing the mids in the rear as they only need to be there for fill. As for low...

Great post. I'd have to be a spectator this year; mine isn't due now until sometime in 2025- hopefully...........

Outstanding! That's my aim once it finally gets here.

No, i just checked and my I4 letter came through. A whole extra year plus.

Totally shooting from the hip here as I haven't heard the KEF factory system but decades ago had to solve low end problems for customers who didn't want to completely replace their audio systems and had cars with limited options: SAS bazooka tube- amplified version. I have no idea if there is...

Tony at Gator is legit. It sucks but it is what it is.

OUCH!

Really hope your friend's intel is on the money. Wouldn't it be great if they sorted the DCT "issue" and gave us 400HP too! Your insight has always gelled with me; I don't mind any extra wait for it to be released perfect.

So close to my visual spec- wheels and calipers are different. As others have rightly stated, keep sending pics. Maybe one day next year I can return the favor! Looking to take it out west to the Rocky Mountains and Glacier National park.

I have read and heard great things about that watch from CW. This brand is definitely one to keep an eye on. I've got 3 on order.

Regarding US builds, I4 won't start until January. My gut feeling is they will attempt to get the V6 FE1 and V2 complete by year end or before. Otherwise, they go into Q1 of 2024 even further behind. I'm sure they are going to continue building side by side as has been stated numerous times...

Great question, terrible answer: I didn't even bother. Never touched the screen, turned on the audio. I was so caught up in finally seeing the cars in person and actually getting to drive them both, all of the minutiae got completely forgotten. Spent 30 plus minutes in the manual as I drove...

Got to finally "SEE", "FEEL", and "DRIVE" both of these beauties yesterday. Huge shoutout to Gator Motorsports of Indianapolis for the heads up and most importantly to Tony(and Jonathan)for the epic test drives in both the manual and auto(V6) variants back to back. It's remarkable how both are...

Demo cars for Artomobilia show in Carmel, Indiana the weekend of Sept. 8-9. Verdant is a manual with sport and Alcantara interior. Hethel is an Auto(V6) with touring and the grey interior. Two special cars each being an epic and unique driving experience.

I just checked out your webpage. The answer is all of it. photos, video, et al. Great shots for all of the different locations. I've added the WY-296 to my Grand Tour next summer.

not going to hold my breath but this was an unsolicited response from Tony just a few minutes ago.

Direct from Gator in Indianapolis this morning: "We had another national dealer conference last week via Microsoft Teams. They didn't give much detail about certifications but stated that everything is on track. I'll take that as good news! We should have 2 Emira on display at Lotus-Palooza...

Thanks for the post. The whole expectation of wanting more out of the I4 is a little exasperating in comparing it to the V6 or vs an A class Merc. Harry, Matt and all the rest love the V6. I get it. So What? The car is sweet to look at, designed by handling masters and like the Esprit of...

I4 FE Touring Hethel Yellow/lower black pack Silver with black calipers Alcantara w/yellow sticking no privacy glass leather wheel w/yellow TDC

I didn't know there was a grey one! Just ordered one and a red one too! Now all I need is my HY full size

I was on the fence; I didn't mind either way. My decision ultimately came down to how long I'd wait to see a manual V6 vs. the I4 variant. I contemplated for a year and put my initial deposit on the I4 in May of this year. I'm locked in and my car is being built in January. I see the merits...

Editing is a beautiful thing. They've had weeks to play with it. As it isn't physically possible to go from reverse to drive without changing gears editing of the video by skilled pro's is my opinion.

Matt's review was always going to be tough. He's a die-hard manual in a sports car person. His complaint about the shifting was directed at AMG. His review reinforced my decision that my I4 choice was the right one for me.

As usual, your insight is thoughtful and more importantly to me well noted. I too look forward to how the I4 is uniquely different to the V6. I didn't order mine as long ago as many but toiled for almost as long.

thanks for sharing the video. Quite entertaining.

I thought DV for a long while. In the end, I went bold with HY.

Artomobilia is just around the corner again. Looking forward to finally seeing the car I've just finalized my order on. Organized by @GatorMotorsport. https://www.artomobilia.org/artomobilia

that is a great spec. But, my C7 is the same and I don't need two grey cars with red leather. My wife would disagree with me but thanks for suggestion.

Great presentation but that is a lot of flowers to pick up before driving away with it......

Never needed convincing to order this beautiful machine. Having just a few days left before my order is locked in to decide on a color(colour) however is daunting..... DV was my first choice but all the "it's so dark" had allowed doubt to sow in. Meridian is tempting but here again very dark...

Emira on Order

Full deposit done and dusted. 10 days to make my mind up; Verdant or Meridian? Everything else is a lock.

Audio signal will always be better via direct cable connection to the car- no matter the brand. Better signal= Better sound.

Great post!

That was definitely the I4. Sounds like a resounding win!

I4 at Goodwood. Sounds great to me.

Thanks for the Chicane tip! Just downloaded it to keep me busy reading posts and responding to emails.
