1500k... way out of my league. But thanks for the info. I may need to start to look down the ceramic coating route.

Congrats! Hope it was well worth the wait! Where are you PPFing? Price info would appreciated as I am looking into it too.

Ahh. 2 separate owners. Sorry, the excitement of finally seeing deliveries in Japan seems to have got to me.

Congrats! First pic has silver wheels whereas second has black. Couldn't decide and got both??? :LOL:

Just had a call from Lotus Nerima that test drives will be available after Aug 5th, assuming similar timing with the other dealers in tokyo. Me personally will be holding off, have managed to stay away from seeing an actual emira in person so far, plan is to keep away and keep the excitement...

You mean with plates?? So 4th sighting of legal road car!?!?

Got it, thank you. So we know there are at least 2 Emira's officially registered in Japan! Seneca and DV. We are definitely getting closer!

Indeed. Covered in this thread. https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/critical-crash.3382/#post-98048

Don't recall a DV included in the first batch of (was it 15?) Cars spotted at Daikoku, did we miss a shipment fall through the cracks or could it be this DV is possibly the one that was displayed at Harajuku and is now legal to drive with plates??

C8?

Nonetheless, good to see that reviews are finally starting to be posted on the Japan spec Emira!

So obviously he didn't do his homework but to give him the benefit of the doubt, maybe he was fooled into thinking that the Emira had electronic damping from how well the car handled under various speeds and road conditions. I don't have anything against kawaguchi manabu but personally it...

Wow, pretty early in the game, I'm six months behind you so not expecting to see my car any time soon.. anyway great to know that Japan deliveries are finally progressing, hope that there aren't any unexpected issues and you can receive delivery in June as promised!

Congrats! Looking forward to your feedback after delivery. Out of curiosity, deposit date? And do you know where you ranked in the waiting list?

Mighty impressive investigative work! Assurance that we are getting closer made my day!

Dying to see the other colors!

Maybe already out there but something I didn't know that was mentioned in the vid. Emira produces 55kg of downforce at 201 km/h, drift king's take was that this should be an improvement over previous Lotus's around 'wiggliness' at high speeds. Also it was mentioned in the video that he...

I would be truly disappointed and put off if they muffled the sound for the japanese market. Ride height and stance has already proven to be different from the early marketing models, hopefully at least Lotus can keep the sound levels consistent with the other markets. If regulation doesn't...

Wish it was mine but no. I joined rather late in the game with a April 2022 deposit so don't think I'll be seeing my emira any time soon. Wonder also what demo car means. Passed Japan regulations allowing for actual drive on public roads? Assume not as I haven't seen any test drive reports or...

Wasn't the Seneca displayed at the Auto Show back in Jan supposed to be the first customer car?

So according to Balmer, the first production car for Japan was completed 10 days ago and 2 are planned to be shipped next week. More propaganda for the media? We shall see SOON....
