Doesn't feel like that applies in this situation, given that a) this is an aftermarket modification, b) they're throwing the feature in at no cost (or rather, leaving it out wouldn't necessarily reduce the cost), and c) it is software, which doesn't add much weight in my experience :)

Way to bury the lede on this... who has done this mad orange colour!?! (wrapped?) :D

Says flatshift and autoblip is included by default, and specifically mentions "all Lotus Emira V6"... 🤷‍♂️ JUBU Performance - (jubu-performance.com)

"Nice Ferrari, mate!" 😁 Welcome aboard the best car forum on the internet! A bit jealous, and wishing I was enjoying my Emira down in the QLD sunshine (as an Aussie who lived in Brisbane for many years before moving across the world)

Too soon...

You can really see a bit of Gordon Murray influence there, with the central driving position 👍

Assuming you don't mean that the sidewalls are actually rubbing on something (!!), yeah it's normal. Interesting read / watch if you want to understand it better Tyres skipping on full lock | Lotus Emira Forum

The first post of that thread you mention is as close to a checklist as I've seen here (and it gets updated whenever @TomE has a chance) EDIT: But yeah, I get what you are asking for... I don't think I've ever walked around a car with a clipboard, but I can see why that would be a good idea if...

... you've got red on you...

I'm personally keeping my eyes peeled for a "Head Of Just Getting The Fucking Basics Working Smoothly" opening TBH.

Cheers Porter... I posted that before clicking through to track down the rest 👍

Just happened across this while topping up on a dose of Emira V6 noise (still no bloody sign of my "November build, December delivery" *sigh*) If this is anyone on here, hats off to you... this is how this car is supposed to be driven IMO 😁

Not to throw too much shade, but... watching his 0-60 attempts was just painful 😅 😬

Marvellous... I just logged in to check/confirm your finding, and I too have no order showing 🤦‍♂️ At least it still shows my name... I guess that's something

Looks nice, but I'm getting a nervous eye twitch just thinking about keeping those clean... 😅

... well, there's also irony to be had if a dipped plastic part is actually sometimes lighter than a carbon part :)

Not sure how the instrument cluster would benefit from protection, but the rest seem sensible for the sake of a few bucks... nice find.

Yeah, agreed... in this situation, I'd just chock the front wheels.

I think it is completely fair to say that North American customers have benefited from Europe (and other select markets) being the beta testers. Whether it is up to the standard expected by all NA customers yet is debatable I suppose...

If it isn't just Ackerman effect during low speed manuevering, could be steering pump (unsure if that known issue was resolved by the time yours was built) ... worth getting the dealer to check the fluid level etc. https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/creaking-noise.3271

My favourite thing about this video: "If you're worried about your neighbours or taking it down the high street, you can put it in tour, and it won't scare any old grannies" < proceeds to take it down the high street in sport at full chat, wailing like a banshee > :LOL: It sounds great, but...

I'm going to dub this colour variant "Uluru Red" :)

Another way to look at it is, if you can get one with specs you like on things that are hard/expensive to modify (drivetrain, body colour, interior trim), you can compromise on small things that are easy to customise yourself: - wheel colour? spray em, or go aftermarket for a unique look -...

Yes, for those too. Plus, as an added bonus, it keeps them off my lawn.

Yeah... I'll admit I saw the resemblance on the roof and rear quarters at that angle too (even before you posted the actual Evora pic). I think it looks pretty cool, and I hope they push it through to production.

It's to scoop up small children to put to work in the cobalt mines!

Speaking from my own (probably still ignorant) point of view, I think you're both on the money here... a little from column A, a little from column B. The shift in prices, delivery dates, and interest rates has almost certainly played havoc with demand over here, and I personally opted to wait...

Nice. When you do your video, it'd be great to get some impressions on what (if any) compromises you find on a motorway touring run (drone, volume , etc), not just how awesome it sounds when getting up it 😁 🙏 If it can still be relatively civilised when necessary, but sound V12 Supercar ™️ at...

How anti-social is this system likely to be in "normal use"? Do you still get a lovely sound signature when taking it easy. I love the idea of a beautiful exhaust note, but I don't want to be a dick about it, annoying everyone within a 5 mile radius just taking it out of the driveway. EDIT...

Ooh... that is nice. I presume that is Osmium behind it.

Seriously though, I sure hope they have this figured out sooner rather than later... not being able to defrost the windscreen over winter is going to be just as irritating as being roasted in warmer weather.

Carbon blower fins definitely reduce your 0-20℃ time. Fact!

Ha... today I learned that a hedgehog resistor is a thing, and that it actually is aptly named. I initially assumed it was being nicknamed that because it is a prick to get to :LOL:

That's the whole problem, right? The ICE is going away... :dinosaur: 🔥 🫠

They'll need to speak up... I can't hear them over the supercharger whine.

Thought I'd try to kickstart this thread again with a meme that tries to densely pack multiple zingers from the last 12 months into a classic 3-framer ;)

The main "big deal" in this situation is that you have to eat all the recent price increases if you bump yourself down the queue (by cancelling/reordering).

Yeah, this pretty much happened to me too - was given a date around April 24, planned finances accordingly (and diverted significant immediately-accessible funds to home improvement), recently got the "good" news my build was brought forward to October, cue lifting all the sofa cushions and...
