This one works according to other forms talking about the Emira out of the UK. Especially if you have a V1 detector. I ordered it but have not tried it out in an Emira yet only in my other cars...

I live in Texas & have purchased over 63 cars/SUVs/trucks in my time. The dealer at Lotus Dallas is playing hardball $$$, to gain some extra money. In all my transactions with multiple brands, not one dealer told me I had to finance with them to buy the car. Earth Motor Cars has been around for...

Fixed my post, I pay cash plus my credit union does it different for me as I have significant money in the bank. I had the title mailed to me before and walked it to the bank when it was an out of state purchase. Called them last week since mine is out of state and that state will not collect...

Very simple, you goto the credit Union and get a check for the car purchase that you are financing hand it to dealer drive it off. If they wont except that process for any reason. Other option, you take their financial BS and buy the car and then go to the credit union about a week later and...

I never mentioned pricing, the fact many Carb states are still waiting while new owners are already selling before they get their cars. If I sold mine after I took ownership: It’s a 1.0 loaded with sports suspension, no black pack all in with taxes/fees it’s $102,435. Anything north of that...

For all those that been waiting years for your Emira, you can get one ASAP: The Flippers who got them before you have started: VINSCCLEKAX7RHA10563 https://www.vehicles-classifieds.com/detail/other/2024-Lotus-Emira-FIRST-EDITION-2024-LOTUS-EMIRA_204692056677.html

Wow, you got an extra bolt that is special. This happened to me on my 2011 Evora, but I had 3 bouncing around the cabin. I figured out their location after doing a major Audio system upgrade, and solved the dash rattle too.

I have started the process in early 2021. My company HQ happens to be in S-Valley and I live in Texas. I went to Houston and Austin and they were clueless at the time.. When I called Dallas and my friend the new owner took over the franchise (Was Park Place years ago then nothing until Earth...

This car looks very nice in yellow, nice combination congratulations, I typically don’t like yellow cars.

1. The dealer owner I spoke to told me they have been paying for the cars on F-plan once the cars are shipped to the dealers. (That was while waiting for CARB approval) 2. Yes a bunch of people have been getting their cars while a bunch of CARB dealers have not & those cars are still in the UK...

Okay, how many cars does Lotus produce a year? Based on that # alone it's deplorable how this process has been handled by Lotus management/distribution. I bet the USA dealers are just as frustrated as the customers as these cars are on FloorPlan costing the dealers monthly $$$$$.

IMO, the Emira is a nice sports car, with supercar looks, but it is not a Supercar or a Hypercar you would need to move up to their Evija which is a hypercar. Well-known auto manufacturers like McLaren, Ferrari, and Lamborgini make supercars, and hypercars while Porsche makes all 3. We can go...

The corvette C8 Z06 with those massive tires on the car can be very noisy too. iMO mid-engine cars have a tendency to be louder since the engine is behind your ear and is not separated by a large padded dash like front engine.

My dopey Porsche Pen all carbon stopped working 3 months after I got mine from Porsche. Thank G the car lasted a lot longer before I sold it.

The Cup2 are incredible tire but have a very short life span plus, my Emira will not be on the track. If I was tracking the car then Cup2 all the way. When I picked my Emira out I wanted the stiffer suspension and the cups were the standard set up. Like I mentioned I am not a GoodYear tire fan...

AUDI EV Etron GT is faster and super quiet. That is my daily driver choice. I wonder if everyone is on Goodyear tires with these noise complaints? Tires & road surfaces are usually 90% cause of road noise. I am not a fan of Good Year tires, but once I burn through my Cup2 tires, I will get...

Cool glad it worked as I always say Welcome to Lotus.

The dealer will charge 100 dollars a letter

Assuming no black pack, an 11k deposit is high IMO I put down 2,500. Must be a Gen 1.0. Mine is $93,900 before the Destination and Doc fee of 76.00 dollars. Then I pay the Dopey State Taxes & Tags when I get her home. 🤬

A friend of mine just did a Lotus Tour at the factory (3-13-24). The tour guide said the paint booth is state of the art and Lotus was able to get the paint down to 50 thickness from the average of 200 with the Evora & GT. I say No way on sanding the clear coat.

Prep fee of $1600 & Doc fee $289.75 🤣🤬 Sorry that is $$$ for the dealer. Unfortunately, some are worse than others. I guess one way to look at it is Inflation, everything is expensive, interest rates, waiters want a 20% to 25% tip now, look at home prices my values keep going up.

You in Allen Texas? Or?

What location is this car at? I have an EV Etron GT as my daily and love it so much. My LE 1.0 94k MSRP is still in the UK waiting to be shipped but I have some friends looking for an Emira. Why are you trying to sell a car you have not bought yet versus the dealer just giving your deposit back...

Like, I mentioned in many posts Bass is the main issue. The woofer is too small & the location is not the best with the lack of power for the bass driver. I bet the two drivers in the rear help fill some of the bass. Time will tell but I think in the end I will be modifying mine this coming...

What will be the total by end of production for the USA, thoughts?

What they did is wrong, contact Lotus & complain. Taking advantage of consumers is wrong. They are used to making up the rules because they have been a pre-owned stand-alone car company for decades. The problem now they are operating under a manufacturer's license as a new car dealer. Another...

When I get my car in a month if my usb doesn’t work will have a full write up. Do you have V1 2.0? Wonder why escort and others work? I use this cable in my EV Etron GT no issues & others with V1 but not in Emira since mine has not arrived...

So strange, just powered my V1 2.0 and did the most resent update while plugged into usb without any issue. Do you have the one that works with 12V? Plus look for any that says Note: This USB RJ11 Radar Detector Cable is not suitable for Valentine One radar detector. Good luck. What blend mount...

When it comes to money I keep my emotions on the sidelines as I truly don't need anything that badly. Happened to me with my new pool build but I had 7 builders and went with the one that was the easiest to deal with and would meet my needs. All wanted the final check at Plaster I made them...

That is such BS, taking advantage of your customers, not good business IMO. What goes around comes around as market conditions can't stay positive forever. Eventually, more cars will be available than customers wanting to buy them, especially as other dealers start getting more inventory &...

Yes, qualifications are very simple If you have any family members in the Military, a close friend could get you in too. Call them & they will walk you through a very simple application.

The best rates in the country for top-tier credit is at Navy Federal Credit Union. + Additional Military Discount APR as low as New Vehicle 4.54% 36M 4.99% 60M 5.29% 72M 7.19% 84M 8.09% 96M

lol NOPE, buy Race 74B witch is Ferrari, don’t forget Nvdia

My V1 2nd gen has no issue with the cable. Above your picture on the same side I see the usb hole it’s a straight shot and your not tapping into any cords.

Mirror Tap is not needed. Cleaner install All we need since the mirror plastic housing on the windshield has a USB connector for video and radar setup, it's on the passenger side...

My concern as this is not my first rodeo buying cars from overseas. The more times it gets transported the more opportunity for it to get damaged. Same with shipping from B-Port to the dealer then not allowed to fly to California and drive it home because of new California laws. Now it has to...

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬 So strange that CARB states never got any cars shipped to the US-Port. I purchased my first new Lotus Evora back in 2010, Lotus is still the same unorganized company, I am just so surprised after 14 years & new ownership.

Need more pictures of Carbon Tips looks very nice should have my car in a month.
