With all the "niggles" and annoyances reported, I have never heard this, either. I would imagine some of our worldwide Emira owners could chime in here. I had the windows down in the demo car at at least 50mph and I noticed no heat whatsoever. Hard to believe this is a real issue or it...

Welcome to the forums and great color choice! I'm sure in person it looks even more stunning. I hope you (and we) get to enjoy the Emira very very soon!

I agree this would be beyond low class if it were in fact true. However, based on this one screenshot I think it's far too hasty to immediately state as a fact that the dealer actually hacked the charity. I cannot fathom a legitimate business doing something like that in such a public fashion...

Are you sure that is Meridian? Looks more like Atlantis to my eyes...

So admittedly I didn't do much listening while driving so I can't comment directly on the road/engine noise working against the system. What I can say, however, is that while parked it was very clear and very loud at something like 30-40% volume if I recall correctly. It's difficult for me to...

I wouldn't worry too much. I personally thought the KEF system was amazing during my test drive. I think most of the people who are unhappy with it don't have the right inputs/equalizer settings. In my BMW's Harman Kardon setup, my Apple Play music sounds mediocre but once I play it from...

Wow, that is an absolutely glowing review. We're almost there, people!

Pretty sure it's Atlantis Blue which is IMHO the best on this car (I'm a 1.0 so I'm a Nimbus)

I have a feeling it (EPA approval) is still pending. If not, what specific rationale is there for non-CARB state buyers to not be able to take delivery? I just haven't seen any concrete reasoning for this. It makes no sense to be concerned about transfer from non-CARB states to CARB states as...

Man that is cheap and 5K miles is plenty for me. Perhaps I'll give them a call..... EDIT: Not looking good at the onset: EDIT #2: Just for funsies, I thought I'd grab an estimate for the Evija as well :) That's just nuts.

Except how many people will realistically buy a $2M+ car? Of course there will be some affluent buyers but I would think the Emira would be more "valuable" to have in the showroom for the average person passing by. The people buying an Evija wouldn't be doing it because of window shopping...

Sorry to hear your situation. That does seem a bit unfair in the grand scheme of things. But hey, your spec is amazing and I'm trying to fight myself from being a bit jelly of that Atlantis Blue (me being a 1.0 I had no choice in the matter). It'll be worth the wait!

I really really love that color. I think I'd switch from Nimbus to that if I had the choice. That spec w/ silver wheels would be right on the money for me.

TX seems like somewhat of an outlier in this graphic

Is it just me or does the Emira look SO MUCH BETTER without a front plate?? Sorry for those of you in front plate states.

Yes, whatever he used to record that audio was epic. It's so hard to know whether it's the exhaust that sounds great or if the audio capturing device is just superior in some videos over others. Alas, 1st world problems. However, I want to do whatever he did in this video.

I'm very interested in this as it is likely one of my early mods so thank you for posting. Unfortunately, I can't tell much of a difference in these videos. It's a bit more noticeable in the ones that Milltek posted on YouTube although I feel like they cheated on the revs a bit by revving the...

Not sure if this was posted yet but Lotus Cape Fear in Wilmington, NC had 5 Emiras arrive yesterday. 3 blue, 1 red, and 1 nimbus. Mine hasn't arrived yet but I imagine it'll be there before Christmas as it was on one of the boats a week ago. Some of them have been arriving quite dirty. I...

This just doesn't seem like a wise parenting strategy to me, nor a particularly safe one. But hey, if you got it, flaunt it I guess!

Hah same here....is 38 old enough for a mid-life crisis? If not, I'm sure I'm getting close. All I could afford in college years was my $2,000 1987 Toyota MR2 but I loved that thing. I couldn't imagine being able to drive an Emira in college. It probably would've gotten me in so much trouble.

I'm a copycat as well. I think mine has either landed in the USA or is about to do so. Can't wait!

It's valid statement. If the Emira was the price of a Huracan that statement might hurt but at less than half MSRP, I'll take a little less presence!

And the Emira looks so much sleeker and much better curves/angles.

The daytime running lights are not amber though, right? They were always white in the euro spec models. I just want to make sure because amber running lights would be a huge lose IMO

I don't think I would've ever thought to spec this but it looks amazing. Very classy and timeless for those who aren't looking for skittles colors.

Back to the delivery topic...I'm hoping to see more dealer delivery pics today! Anyone have the latest intel on the 3rd boat coming to Baltimore? I haven't had time to dig through the various sites as of late.

I'm in Raleigh and I'm definitely in for this. Mine is also Nimbus and it was headed to towards Baltimore last week and then on to Cape Fear. It sounds like Cwolf and I have the same spec except for the wheels! Spec (Same as Harry's: ) Nimbus w/ lower black pack Silver wheels w/ yellow...

The ambers don't run with the daytime running lights do they? I sure hope not.

I'd ask for the written policy details and disregard whatever that person was saying. That kind of policy just doesn't make much logical sense as @Porter mentioned.

World Imports

Response from my insurance agent when I asked him about your statement: Hagerty does require disclosure of usage, and does have an option for very limited usage if that Is what the policy holder chooses. It is important to understand the usage limits chosen on an individual policy. I am quoting...

What's your zip code? Mine is 27615 and if I compare "average" rates vs. 30021 (Clarkston, GA) It's 86% more expensive in Clarkston (at least according to this: https://www.carinsurance.com/calculators/average-car-insurance-rates.aspx) It seems it may have more to do with location and less to...

I will inquire about this and let you know. This would also be unacceptable to me.

I was just quoted $1,556/year with Hagerty at $95K agreed upon value. $250/500K coverage w/ $1K deductible (full coverage). I'm in North Carolina with an imperfect driving record.

I was a late FE 1.0 (Cape Fear was a new dealer so I lucked out). I never had a build date estimate.

I just got a call from Lotus Cape Fear in Wilmington, NC this morning. My Emira is on a boat and I have a confirmed VIN for my Nimbus! I checked NHTSA site and the VIN came up clean with all the right details. Dealer stated that "end of January was a very conservative estimate" for CARB...
