I am good with waiting as long as Santa writes the check for my Emira, I will even pay for the taxes. ‘Merry Christmas

Tokion, I agree with all your points & feel we both have very similar ears on what we believe to be quality of sound. It will be nice once I have my car to do a deeper dive.

The Evora sub was very basic & stayed the same all through till its departure with the GT. Here are some pictures. When looking at the rear & internal panels in the manufacturing videos the Emira looks similar to the Evora. I am sure the sub is much better in the Emira & IMO this car is a true...

Spot on but I want to be fair as my assessment was done on all 4 Emira's, after I pulled up in my Audi Etron GT that has the upgraded B&O system. In terms of its audio configuration, the B&O system that is in my GT, has 16 speakers that combined output 710 Watts. At the front, there is: a...

Your correct on the open cavity and having it by the air vents, this was an issue when I was adding a new sub and amp. I remembered the cavity was open in other areas too as it was a free air sub and not fully enclosed. The amp Imo is lacking power and depending how Lotus picked the amps to...

I been in 4 different Emira ‘s over the last 6 months all Lotus dealer Demo cars. Hoping these cars are not the finished product, but my experience with Lotus it more than likely the same. Someone said the Amp was improved since its release, but I have no facts to back that up. I do agree...

After I purchased a new 2011 Evora I did a complete rebuild of my audio system after 5 months of ownership. (On Lotus Talk) It took me well over 2+ weeks and the end results came out significantly better than the current OEM KEF system. To me it’s hard to beat the current high-end systems in the...

Found this online.

I live in North Texas not far from you, I have owned over 60 cars and I am very active in the car market.. Anytime a manufacturer floods the market with a product it’s not good for values even though Lotus is low production car we won’t see significant price decreases. Rates are very high...

I agree but at a much increased price for those getting the F2.. I will take the lower price all day long. They did the same to Evora owners in 2010, when the cars did not sell & came out with a 11k+ rebate to lower entry cost. I picked up a loaded new 2011 Evora for 62k back then, it was a...

Live in Texas no front plates on my cars & I have no issues. Also in Dallas my friends FE-2 showed up.

I have installed it on cars I had to drive a few hours home Or heading to add clear film. If you have a daily driver, add it to that vehicle and test it out. I know some that used heavy duty painters tape, so many options. I never had any damage to my cars.

Today I watched a tech perform a PDI on a incoming Emira.

No need to spend the money get Temporary film. Unless the drive is horrible with rock trucks just use TRACK ARMOUR TA3X100-3" x 100' - Temporary Track Day Paint Protection Clear Adhesive Film for Car. Get it online. It’s not perfect but it will work.

This is happening with all manufacturer, try to find a base car or truck on a lot today. That is why the new average vehicle sold today hit 48k in 2023. Manufacturers realized they make more money selling a particular configurations with more options that they control (Loaded out). Housing was...

Spoke to Lotus, we will have the see through shifter. Not sure this was addressed a few posts ago. Also Carb will take more time no cars will be in customers hands till after carb approval thinking January 2024. Maybe get lucky have it for Christmas that would be nice.

IMO be surprised Lotus ships the cars to the dealers before carb is approved Regardless of state. The liability Is too great for Lotus. Could you imagine some dopey dealer gets a car and is caught driving it around before the Emira is approved or does something stupid with their demo, not going...

I am surprised that the cars would be shipped to any dealers until the EPA/Carb is approved regardless of the state. I live in Texas basically have no rules. Unless Lotus needs space at the main holding area I think this opens up a big can of worms. This will be interesting

Don’t buy a C8 corvette, they call those issues character to make them look different since there’s so many on the road.

Based on your comments we will assume you’re out and focused on another brand and model. Owned 2011 Evora and my friend raced his 2011. The dealer network was worse and the construction was no were near the Emira. I called it the Frankenstein car, but it was problem free even my buddy who raced his.

We are seeing the FOMO end here as well on luxury goods, watches, higher end cars, housing depending on locations are taken depreciating hits . To be fair to the Emira how are other sports cars in the same pricing range doing? I bet they are lower compared to the past. Unfortunately very few...

I heard the UK is in a recession, true of false? That would have effect on the resale values plus the car has been in your area for over a year now. The Emira is truly a refreshed version of the last car which I owned. I will have a Z06 DCT and a manual Emira to me best of both worlds.

Economic condition, inflation, interest rates, wars the list is long that will cause issues on asset values,. The good news Lotus won’t make enough for the USA in first 3 years for the car to drop 50% in 5 years. it’s the last ICE Lotus and manual ICE sports car. First on the list LE your around...

I have a LE allocation; I am getting mine when it hits the USA. I have had other Lotus cars, the last one was an Evora. If your close to a dealer your good, if far away could be inconvenient.

Still No excuse, I said similar not same parts.

1. Its English car, which are never known for their reliability. Watch the first Cannon Ball run movie, the jag never starts the race, yes, I know it's a movie. McLaren's have many strange issues too. Watch My biggest concern the Emira is basically the Evora S/400 in another wrapper with many...
