    911T vs Emira

    I own a 992.1 T and it's pretty hard to break the rear free. You can of course, but you really have to try. The mechanical diff and Porsche torque vectoring really help keep things balanced. @allenyao09 is correct on pricing. A base car with no options starts at $130k.

    I4 - car revs "high" and sudden "launching/sudden thursting" in low gear

    I agree. Surging like that isn't driver error. Something is going on. Check the transmission fluid level.

    Lotus shares are down 90% from IPO

    The common theme on here years ago was that Lotus was going to build and sell tens of thousands of Emiras per year. It was a pipe dream then and it's even more so now. The niche market for cars like this is nowhere near as big as that. Emira saturation hit it's peak long ago. Like my 4C, once...

    @JonnyD72 - You haven't provided any 'all over the net' links to 992.2 T release info because they don't exist.

    Porsche ends combustion engine in 718 Cayman/Boxster in 2025.

    Agree. Porsche's clientele has changed dramatically. I've met several GT3 owners that don't know much about their cars. It was never like that in GTx land. Yes, there are still enthusiasts like us, but posers are everywhere now. A little while back I went up to a guy at gas station and said...

    Porsche ends combustion engine in 718 Cayman/Boxster in 2025.

    Is Porsche aware that one of it's employees is leaking secret information online? Seems like an odd thing for you to do, no?

    Porsche ends combustion engine in 718 Cayman/Boxster in 2025.

    Not confirmed no matter how many times you say it. Porsche hasn't even announced that a .2 T model is coming yet. I think it's likely to happen, but no official plans beyond the base and GTS have been released yet. Here's the rennlist discussion on it...

    997 into Emira….?

    Don't sell your 997. Build your collection around it. :) Any chance you can keep the 997 AND get the Emira? They look so good together in 'Emiro's" photo above. 😈

    Alfa 4c looking to purchase an Emira but am unsure

    Sounds like you still love your 4C but that the Emira is the new hot girl you can take out. :) I've owned my LE 4C since new in 2015 and I'll never sell it. Too much fun the way it feels like an old school sports car. "Replacing" it will be impossible. Can you add and keep the 4C? I had a...

    Income/Finances needed to justify Emira purchase?

    Pay off your house. In fact, if there's no prepayment penalty, blast another few payments at your loan each year to reduce your principal. At 30, you sound ahead of the curve. Stay there. I agree that buying used will get you what you want at a discounted price. Like my Alfa 4C, many early...

    Try this. With the window all the way up, hold the window button in the up position for 5 seconds even though the window is already up. Then roll the window down, and even when the window is all the way down, hold the button down for an additional 5 seconds. Then roll it all the way back up and...

    I'd ask your dealer. This won't be the first time they ship a car out of state, so I bet they have a company they work with. I just went through this last month with a P car I bought out of state, and before I could even ask, my dealer told me he would arrange the transport, no problem. In my...

    Lotus Emira First Edition for Sale

    OP, you probably already thought of this, but if not... When you find a buyer, you might want to consider having the dealer sell the car for you directly instead of purchasing it and reselling. You're going to pay tax on the purchase and it doesn't look like you factored that in? You have good...

    John4C is one of the most respected members of the 4C community. What he is saying is true, and makes total sense if you leave the echo chamber. Not a troll, just speaking the truth.

    The perpetual apologists on here calling out people that are upset with the 900th delay are pathetic and lost. Depositors are going on 2 years from when cars were promised by Lotus. Give me a break. The good news is, it looks like cars are going to be available for more than just depositors...
