The question is whether those Lotus dealers will also be allowed to install this kit on existing Emira customers’ vehicles (at a not inconsiderable price‼️‼️) Unless the “Cup” vehicle is only available as a new model delivered from Lotus; I assume the possibility of “dealer installation”...

OUR PERFECT MIURA REVIVAL (everyone driving Emiras)

Absolute Lotus (Issue 44) just announced that Lotus (UK) has now built 10,000 Emiras. A good reason to celebrate❣️🍾🥂 I think Matt Windle has done a great job, as witnessed by his recent promotion to be the CEO of Lotus Europe. (I assume that his role will still be tied to manufacturing, as...

Please enter @Tokion as firm. I will attend.

EUROPA PARK - Rust, Germany 8 roller coasters here

Cooling fluid spilled on the workshop floor where my Emira had been positioned. Today Saturday May 10 I brought my (i4) AMG M139 engine Emira First Edition to the most experienced tuning, racing, workshop BSK In Tokyo, Japan run by Mr. Teruhiko Kobayashi. The main purpose was to have a set of...

Tokion here😉 This to announce that I have signed up for all three days, and will participate fully in, the Japan - 2025/06/13-15 (fri-sun) Rollercoasters and Shirakawago Onsen Tour (ナガシマスパーランド & 白川郷)

Another angle of my Dark Verdant 2024 (i4) M139 2.0 Turbo FE at the Japanese countryside

My i4 is also a 2024-build, most probably it was manufactured in May of that year. After many delays I received it where I live (in Tokyo) early October 2024. I did have problems with reverse, and the overall operation of the DCT gearbox was less than optimal. However about a month or month and...

Thank you Kaz and other contributors who has helped all of us (i4) AMG M139 2.0 Turbo owners get rid of the fake noise. My own M139 engined car just had its 6 months service with 4000 km u/ 2500 miles. I am both an audiophile and an (analog) audio professional. From the start I have been...

I was just back from Seoul Korea, and I saw this while traveling by subway towards Yurakucho for an errand. I may actually be able to make it, so I will head toward the location after I finish my task. I hope somebody else also show up 🤣🤣🤣

For me, the second half of May, and sometimes through the first week of June, is spent in Germany for one of the world’s biggest trade-shows in Consumer Electronics (HighEnd Messe in Munich). After the end of the exhibition, I sometimes visit “next door” Austria (last year I visited JUBU) and...

I know well the JUBU company and I visited them late last May (2024) and may do so again in late May this year. They are incredibly serious and professional. Take a look at the well known racing models that they have developed, and continue to develop. This is a one-of-a-kind ultra-high-end...

PLAN FOR: Japan Winding Road Drive: Ome -> Okutama -> Kofu - Sunday March 30 09:30AM Rendevous point: Mizune Parking Lot 水根駐車場 198-0222 東京都西多摩郡奥多摩町境 Sakai, Okutama, Nishitama District, Tokyo, Tokyo 198-0222 (Michi-no-Eki # 1) Tabayama: 〒409-0300, 2901 Tabayama-mura, Kitatsuru-gun, Yamanashi...

As we can all see, the weather has taken a turn for the worse with rain, and possibly snow (especially toward the mountainous regions of Okutama) today Saturday March 29. Still the forecast is for no precipitation tomorrow Sunday March 30. Either sunny or at worst cloudy. One concern is whether...

As of this moment, Saturday March 29 at 00:45AM the prospects for our Sunday March 30 looks good. There will be a considerable day temperature drop as compared to the last few days, but approximately 15 degrees is expected (maybe a bit cooler in the mountains), but still not freezing, and it...

Only thing that matters is to not to be caught out with “semi-slicks”. I still remember that Hunter Mountain @ Nikko drive😱

We will go as long as the weather allows (and just rain ☔️ is allowable too)

I got the Emira 2.0 (Turbo) First Edition M139 in Tokyo, Japan. I am past the first service and oil change, soon coming up to my second service & oil change after 6 months. I participated in a circuit day at Fuji Speedway and had the car up to 240 km/h (150 mph) on the main straight. With all...

This is my proposal for a Sunday, March 30 Lotus Owner Participants drive. Initial meet-up, rendevous point will be at the parking area of Lake Okutama, also known as the Ogouchi Dam lake. It is some drive to get there, so I wonder if the time to meet should be set to 09:30 or 10:00. I...

Nova; have you actually checked your own car and subwoofer installation to see if there is actually room to install a (shallow) 10-inch there? You will also need to find out if there is room for the required internal box volume for the sealed woofer cabinet. My favorite driver is the...

I did order, make the contract, and picked up my own Dark Verdant Emira with Tan Interior, Sports Suspension on Goodyear LTS tires and Alacantara steering wheel with yellow marker. It has been suggested that I also show up on Sunday January 26 at 13:00 so that we can proove that we truly are...

I was there both Friday Jan 10 PM hours, and again Saturday Jan 11 AM hours. Friday it was possible to move around and actually watch cars and move around freely. On Saturday the place was so jam-packed that it was hardly possible to move, and in most cases it was impossible to properly watch...
