    Top Gear Photos with Chris Harris Track Testing

    For anyone who’s been under a rock, the video is now on YouTube: It does appear to be slightly cut down though!

    Yeah, mine was September delivery and I got the email.

    Message from Matt Windle regarding Emira delays

    A lot of the B-roll footage I recognised from older videos, so that's likely a pre-prod car in Ardent Red yes.

    Emira Review Index [V6 FE]

    Carfection said their Emira review will likely be out early next week. Looking forward to that one! I asked them during the premiere of their Artura review, Top Gear on Sunday too, nice having a steady stream of reviews & content now :)

    Sounds similar to one of the alloys available on the Evora GT

    Lotus Emira Key?

    Great investigative work 😀 I just asked Scorpion on live chat, the model fitted to the Emira does support using your phone as the ADR fob which is a nice feature. Lotus chat said the tracker option includes a years subscription.

    Hethel Yellow Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    Although I went OEM on my M2 Comp I’ve heard good things about AutoID in the UK and they look to be good value. I’m sure I’ve seen the owner Jack posting in the Emira groups about having a deposit down so I’m hoping they’ll be producing parts! I’ve seen a lot of Komo-tec parts in videos on...

    Lotus Emira Key?

    I really hope so, that would be great. The Lotus & Scorpion websites don’t do a great job of explaining the model/functionality, if I remember I’ll try asking Scorpion!

    Lotus Emira Key?

    I was thinking the same, with the tracker fob attached it will be like a medieval flail

    Hethel Yellow Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    Completely agree, the silver exhaust tips on the Electre launch car work really well with the diamond cut wheels too. I noticed on the factory tour that the exhaust tips were fitted to the bumper/diffuser quite early on so I don't think the factory will entertain fitting silver tips, but I'd...

    Test drives and final stage of buying process for UK July delivery batch

    From what I’ve seen, Tom has passed on concerns and complaints around comms multiple times to Lotus. They really have had every opportunity to rectify our worries of locking in an unknown spec, or the early depositors receiving a car having not driven one. Like Evotion, I’m excited regardless...

    Anyone locked 🔒 in ordered wrong colour ?

    It is odd none of the review cars were Nimbus or Dark Verdant given they are two of the more popular colour choices. Having done the factory tour I don’t think many will be disappointed with Nimbus in the flesh, its a very impressive metallic with a huge amount of travel. Personally, I think...

    First review

    The picture in the article shows the engine cover for the AMG 2.0 turbo engine, the V6 they claimed to drive actually looks like the below. Picture from Caffeine & Machine ☕️

    New Shmee Emira video

    I do agree his usual stuff is very cringe and hard to watch, the Emira video is pretty dialed-back though, definitely worth a watch (on mute worst case!). He normally seems to have had 5 cans of Schmonster Energy before filming...

    Goodwood Festival of Speed 23-26 June

    I'm going on Friday - I'm another in the yellow team after visiting the factory to see some cars in the flesh. Also the first time my partner will be seeing the car too, should be fun!

    Gran Turismo 7

    The Emira isn't in Assetto Corsa unfortunately, those pictures are of a user-made mod available for the PC version. Which makes it a bit odd Lotus are reposting/promoting it.

    Seneca Photoshop request

    I remember at the factory tour thinking the red brakes were a bit darker than I was expecting. This picture shows them quite well:

    First Edition colours - first-hand impressions...

    Some more, I'm presuming the grey is one of the 13 future colours Zinc Grey. I will cook up a black pack version of the Magma car in Photoshop shortly, great to see it out in the wild and can't imagine anyone being disappointed with the colour!

    First Edition colours - first-hand impressions...

    Just to add to eclat2emira's feedback :) Nimbus is really close, well done! I think it should be slightly warmer, especially the mid-tones. Phil Stevens posted this photo on a Facebook group which captures this really well, I'm sure you've seen it: Shadow Grey, I saw a car with the Black Pack...
