Graphene coated. 1300km on the clock. Also almost time.

Parking at かがり吉祥亭looks good!

Hokuriku tour - not sure about Friday but I should be ok for the weekend. (Unless some emergency comes up). Fingers crossed for everyone waiting on I4 deliveries.

Anyone see when pulling down from 3rd to neutral, the vertical movement of the stick is strong and tends to go past neutral and partially into 4th? It’s still in neutral but goes to the point where I can’t wiggle the stick left and right, super annoying when trying to downshift into 2nd just to...

Got my windows cleaned and coated. Couldn’t see shit in the rain.

So I’ve finally had some time to fiddle around a bit. On the nav, I don’t use apple carplay so can’t comment on the system freeze, in my case I could not stand the thought of charging my iPhone constantly so connected an android I wasn’t using and just keep it connected to the car all the time...

She’s finally here! Took delivery today. First time seeing Nimbus in person, immediately fell in love. Will try to post some initial thoughts later but overall experience is good so far and I just can’t stop looking back after parking the car to admire the lines of the Emira (especially the side...

Chopping off the roof of an Emira be like..

@virtualmacho @Nick219 thanks guys, lots of fun. Safely arrived home. First time seeing the Emira and Portofino up close. Both amazing and sounded beautiful! Drive safe!

Sitting nearby observing and mezmorized by the curves of your car, mate.

Emira発見。stay seated, I’m heading over now.

@virtualmacho I’m parked immediately where you enter Takasaka, black bimmer, should be able to find me easy. @Nick219 look forward to meeting you later!

Gotta day that you chose the perfect day! On my way now, see ya later!

Sounds like a plan! Now all we need is just for the weather to clear up! Fingers crossed.

Been considering alternatives for lunch around the proposed route. Start point is Michino Eki Ogawa, assuming route 11 is the preferred route, I have plotted stops A and B, when we near Michino eki Chichibu, Chinbata (buta don) or Nigurumaya Dining (salisbury steak ハンバーグ) looks to be popular...

Thanks @virtualmacho ! Exactly the posts I was looking for. Guess it’s time to pick up the phone and start to do some calling around

Hi team Japan! As delivery approaches and I now need to look into insurance options, would appreciate your info around experiences in finding companies that provide coverage. From what I have found out, it’s not possible to get an online quote as there are no insurance companies that list...

Oops. Apologies, maybe had one too many 🍺 🍺 .. 9am it is! Other points of interest in Saitama I am looking into, maybe for a future second tour if first meet up proves successful!! -Nagatoro Asami Reizo (shaved ice. But LONG Queue...) -Raiden Todoroki Bashi -Mitsumine Shrine

According to google it's 20 min from Takasaka to Michino eki ogawamachi. So meet at 9:45 and leave Takasaka by 10:15? Also, just noticed that Michino eki Ogawamachi is temporarily closed due to renovation, may need to come up with a plan B.

Noted sir! I will be using Kanetsu from Nerima, anyone want to meet up in advance at one of the SA's and head together to Ogawa?

Thanks all for your feedback. Ok, guess I need to do some cross shopping. Interesting that there is a maintenance pack. This is Harajuku?

Question to those who have installed ETC, from what I have read so far looks like most people had the dealer install, can you let me know how much it cost? my dealer is quoting somewhere around 75k yen. Seems super expensive compared to what I paid in my previous cars, just wanted to understand...

Brief update. Looks like my Emira will be arriving at the dealership early next week, after registration and pre inspection, should be able to take delivery last day of June（大安）! oh, and on the issue of whether or not I will keep the M4, resolved the parking issue so for now the plan is to...

Count me in! Only problem, I still haven’t taken delivery of my Emira… Beemers accepted?

Shouldn’t be an issue as long as the detailer follows protocol and first buffs, smooths out the paint before applying coating. My recommendation is Polish Factory in Nerima, problem is they are usually fully booked for the next 3 or 4 months…

so i have found myself in an extremely difficult situation... With the delivery of Emira getting closer, i have been arguing with myself whether or not to keep my F82, or to sell. From the time of deposit, i never thought of selling the F82, plan was to own both cars but with delivery nearing, i...

thanks Nick! fingers crossed!

2 year anniversary from my initial deposit coming up in a couple of weeks and I could not resist any longer to wait for a proactive update from Lotus so called my sales rep. Though highly skeptical, he told me most probably another month and delivery expected in May, looks like PDI has been the...

On the bright side of things, at least you have something to photo shoot! Looking forward to you report after run in and how she does WOT!

Good stuff! Thanks for checking. when my car finally comes, I’ll just keep the Dr and 3w at home, probably will score my best round ever… Also saw a vid on YouTube demonstrating how golf bags will fit not only in the boot but also in the rear compartment so good to go with the missie!

thanks. and no TV tuner i assume? (to keep my GF occupied..)

Sorry, may seem like a stupid question. Does the Emira come with built in sat nav? Or is it to be used with Carplay or Android Auto?
