    📓 Journals Lotus Emira Roadtrip Break In Period

    "...do not run the engine continuously at engine speeds over 4,000 rpm." "Occasional short bursts at wider throttle and higher engine speed will be beneficial..." Emphasis mine. Where did "don't exceed 4,000 rpm for 1,000 miles" come from? The opposite is true according to the manual.

    USA/Canada Delivery Thread

    Ditto. July 9 2021 depositor, car arrived in the US in December 2023, still waiting. I understand that it's because my dealer is low volume and is taking great care to prep each car. I'm trying to be patient, but it's getting harder every day.

    Let’s talk about the offset pedal box

    I've been wearing Piloti shoes for 16 years and love them. Perfect for my Elise (confined pedal box), great for heel-toe shifting. https://piloti.com/collections/shop-all

    Port of Baltimore Closed as bridge collapses

    My son lives in Baltimore and commutes on that bridge every day. He messaged me early this AM to check in. This is going to snarl Baltimore for years. :(

    Front license plate mount?

    I live in MN (front plate requirement) and just flout the law for my Elise (not drilling into the clam, splitter in the way anyhow) or my 2022 M4 (blocks the sensors). I keep the second plate in the boot and glove box respectively. I'll face the music if / when I'm cited by LEO.
