    The most accurate car ever produced

    The title is misleading. Particularly for a CNC reviewing group of people, as they seem to be or something. The people in the video, as far as I have determined, have stated: A) the tri-laser system is as precise-consistent as doing so by hand in previous Lotuses. B) it is being done to make...

    PPF, Ceramic coating and wraps... or not.

    two bucket wash with grit guards. use an acrylic "wax" such as Klasse, Sonus Glanz spritz, and just drive it without spending stupid amounts of money. These paints are really simple. This is not a 1950's corvette. much cheaper to repaint and will look better than ppf or worse, a ceramic...

    Porsche to ease pressure on Lotus

    I have to say, the experience of buying a Porsche at a classy dealership is really awesome. I am totally digging the process. Talk about options!! Each option is so honed to a different experience, each tiny piece of leather or aluminum, colored gauge piece, whatever, really all cool. Most...

    TopGear opinion piece about the Emira steering wheel

    the steering wheel is f'ing retarded. want an example of a non-retarded steering wheel? 718's GT wheel. It already exists. Not that hard to design. It's just a small thinner circle. That's it. Doesnt suck. Improvement. also, to everyone that says it is "integral to the..." etc. It is...

    Lotus Driving Experience Cancelled

    I do not see a problem with any of this. They wanted to give you their most accurate experience. they disappointed you and canceled you. That was a very accurate experience to the new Lotus. That is the purist of test drives the new Chinese geely whatever it is called can muster. To...

    Now that reviews are out is anyone having 2nd thoughts about Emira ?

    it is Mercedes. total crap company. It is a 30 lbs boost 2 liter engine. I am sure that will not have any issues. mmmm... such longevity! It will be a super fun car to drive though and most people on here will douchebag flip it like a meth head in three years, so they will not care about...

    the best sports car made that costs 220k minimum vs 93k first generation british car. (the markup on them is nuts in almost every place aside from my very moral and pleasant dealer) lol not a tough choice if you have the money. However, if you have a girlfriend, the Emira x2000000 is better...

    Am I the only one who doesn’t want a Porsche…

    Yes. Videos online say the average Porsche buyer has +$8-10k in options. If you actually learn about the options, it is never under $20k or else you are going to be upset about something one day most likely. or be a 1500 mile trade-in douche. The Boxster T i specc'd is at $102,650 dollars...

    Now that reviews are out is anyone having 2nd thoughts about Emira ?

    the emira looks like it is floating in the air like a 90's bubble attempt at a sports car. I wonder if they have a velour interior option and dolby cassette deck.

    Now that reviews are out is anyone having 2nd thoughts about Emira ?

    718 spyder is the most ultimate, beautiful sports car made in the past 20 years. Lol NEVER SELL THAT if you spec'd it properly and with much care. Gorgeous x3000 and oh so everything. Classy AF

    Now that reviews are out is anyone having 2nd thoughts about Emira ?

    the reviewers clearly were stunned and found it difficult to contain their shock at how humdrum their experience was. I actually think that the interior was awesome (aside from digital only gauges). I also noticed the with the black pack accents on the bottom of the car, the car looks 20 feet...

    Poll: Who has changed his/her mind?

    corvettes are hot garbage. please man, just get this Emira. I mean hot freakin garbage. bucket of metal. dont do it. emira is a LOT cooler and in 2042 you could have any moron repair it. Look at its components! most solid indestructible super charger, engine, gearbox possible for 2022.

    Am I the only one who doesn’t want a Porsche…

    sterile????? lol wtf. It is the most non sterile experience aside from an ND2 MX-5 RF. have you driven a Boxster T or a Cayman S with s-pasm suspension? (not hard to find). It is really metally and grindy. I hate the 4.0 GTS, the 2.5 GTS was a lot better (faster too) and the 4.0 liter needs...

    The porsche 718 series is a nicer car. hate to say it. no group think here. Something is really off about the Emira from these reviews. everyone seems quite stunned about the Meh experience of it. something is wrong. I think what is wrong is that it should be 200 lbs lighter and have a...

    Ride height

    wow, that is super shady. as we all know the 20mm lower looks a lot better. I knew the grey car looked kind of stupid and tall, very 90's pontiac firebird look to it. now it will be that height. ew.

    Would you change from V6 to I4 if I4 had 400HP?

    I cannot wait for globalism and slave labor to define the brand. Makes me giddy :(

    Would you change from V6 to I4 if I4 had 400HP?

    30 pounds of boost. what's more to be said other than that? Also, not meant to be installed in a place that gets too hot , a mid engine.

    Would you change from V6 to I4 if I4 had 400HP?

    30 lbs of boost in a multi thousand dollar engine from one of, if not the worst ever, customer service organizations = no thanks mercedes is a terrible company. someone will white-knight them after my comment and deny reality. Vs toyota = most reliable vehicles made.

    the efficiency is in the perfect torque you get. steam does not compress, does not give a f*** They have made models of 100+ mpg cars that use steam, but never are adopted. A whole world of innovation could happen with it, as well as be super fun to know you are driving a steam driven car :D...

    do you know you have no idea how hydrogen can be made and how a fuel-cell car can be LIGHTER than gasoline powered? vs +1000-2000lbs heavier with a lithium ion battery? no? right. fuel cell = only acceptable form of electrification for a sports car 1970's lithium-ion battery "technology" = push...

    Acceleration times

    more weight can sometimes equal faster 0-60 if it aids notably in traction. this is why 0-60 times are stupid. flying turd EV's get great acceleration numbers, but are 30-40 mph slower at top speed.

    hydrogen is the best way forward. It also has limitless tech improvements. Lithium batteries are finite in their ability that was explored decades ago (or with a simple calculator and 1st year chemistry)

    What color are you ordering for your non-FE?

    I will make the same car as the FE, just order maybe less adjustable seats as adjustable seats tend to add 30-45 lbs of weight to more refined cars like a Porsche 718. Everything else i will keep as an FE. Blue top and bottom no black pack. silver-black forged wheels. white leather combo...

    it will be one of the only non lame, non flying heavy turd "electrified" cars left. You will feel like you are getting A CAR vs. a flying battery driven smoothened lump of overpriced turd. It is worth the wait but I am concerned most that i have to pass on a 718 Porsche to get this, and if i...

    Anyone else beginning to think negatively?

    a dictatorship owning a luxury car company needs no guilt trip assistance. The only thing important is getting what I paid for. It's called non-theft. Starving children in africa comments really have no place in defense of a communist dictatorship doing bad business relations.
