    Is This For Real? BMW Charging to use heated seats?

    Everyone is paying for heated seats. The only question is whether BMW allows you to use them or not. Anyone that thinks economy of scale is going to pay for heated seats, sunroof(as mentioned), power mirrors, rear view camera, ambient lighting, ADAS, etc. etc. etc. is kidding themselves. The...

    Is This For Real? BMW Charging to use heated seats?

    This is all such a load of BS. Total cash grab. Lot's of manufacturers are doing it. I'm fine with subscription services to apps that provide the driver with desirable information, etc. But for any kind of hardware based 'normal car' feature, it's absolutely ridiculous.

    I ordered Seneca, but these new photos of Nimbus are giving me a touch of color envy. :)

    I went Sport with Goodyears. The roads I drive here in Vegas are smooth and enjoyable all year round.

    Anyone that's so worried about CO2 shouldn't buy a 6 cylinder car. That would make you a hypocrite.

    Emira Review Index [V6 FE]

    Those of you suggesting that the 200rpm lower redline is to make emissions standards, are also suggesting that there won't be a later model with more power, no? How is Lotus going to get the extra 15-30hp without raising the redline, thus raising emissions? What am I missing? This feels like a...

    A brother from another mother? Maserati MC 20

    someone created this a while ago to show how well the Emira design holds up against cars many multiples it's price. These aren't to scale, just cool to see the silhouettes. The MC-20 is awesome.

    First review

    that type of contradiction is in so many articles I read. I always wonder how as a reader we can see it the first time we read it, and the writer who undoubtedly proof-read it didn't catch it?

    Magma Red Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    The answer to your question is yes. Red is a tough color for processing. With that said, also yes to the fact that different phone cameras / different 'photo enhance' software etc. will all represent the same color completely differently. Look how some photos of Seneca make it look baby blue...

    Nimbus Grey Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    I found the picture I posted in the downloadable video at the top of this page. https://media.lotuscars.com/en/galleries/handmade-in-hethel.html The drop-shadow is because I took a screen shot of my quicktime window. ;)

    Verdant Green Emira now showing on Lotus Driving Academy website!

    All good. Let's leave it. I feel zero animosity towards you, I don't know you. I'm just frustrated with the lack of valuable info from Hethel, and people trying to cover for Lotus's communication failures.

    Eagle, you've been called out here many times before, maybe it's you? PS - I love your renders. They all have the proper ride height.

    Verdant Green Emira now showing on Lotus Driving Academy website!

    I'm plenty 'old school'. I daily an older 911 and bought an LE Alfa 4C when they came out that I still own. But thanks for blindly categorizing me! From reading some of your posts, Lotus could smack you across the face and you would post here how they stirred your emotions and gave you an...

    Verdant Green Emira now showing on Lotus Driving Academy website!

    I think there's some understandable frustration that the previous car rode like this vs. what we're getting ride height wise. Will it change my decision? Heck no. With that said, I find it hard to believe that more people are happy with the ride height than are disappointed.

    Wallstbear - Thanks for the actual measurements. The pontification from a handful of members on here speaking as if they know what they're talking about is tiring. The yellow car is clearly sitting lower than the DV.

    A mistake that could have been avoided

    I plan to only drive on one lane roads where no one can see the right hand side of my car.

    A mistake that could have been avoided

    Can someone figure out how many mm per pound the car will drop with weights over 160lbs? I'm not going to want to mod it, so I'm just going to gain weight to make it look right when I'm driving it.

    Lotus Marketing opinions?

    Total crap. I own a production company and can tell you that this is typical 'Big Agency" garbage. I hate all of the stuff Alfa produced on the 4C as well. Hard to watch.

    Lotus again delays FE delivery for me.

    My understanding is that dealers who received allocations of ~15 cars will be 'specing' 4 a month starting last month(march). I'm at the end of the list with my dealer, so I believe I'll be ordering my FE next month or in June.
