I drove the touring and switched to sports based on my very limited experience and others' feedback in the US who had the chance to drive the sport suspension on U.S. roads. I think the UK roads merit touring but from most of the people I've talked to in the US, they say sports is better. I...

I wish they had offered a gunmetal option with a silver outside edge or something for contrast. That would have been an easy choice for me. I think these would look amazing on Nimbus:

I think black wheels can look more aggressive/sporty in some applications but in general I've always preferred at least some contrast/brightness in the wheels. Deep down I've always felt black wheels remind me of plain-old black steel wheels on older base model cars. Obviously this is all...

It's a good thing most US states don't run their business the way California does or they'd all be bankrupt. I imagine if CA wasn't an issue then we'd all have gotten our Emiras by now.

Original one was here which was the Cayman GTS 4.0 vs. C8 vs. Emira. I won't spoil it on which one they chose as the best. I guess they loved it so much they wanted to do a solo video of it and drive it a bit more in those canyon roads :)

Unfortunately it's in a tunnel where everything sounds comparatively loud. Not really a good demonstration of the sound IMHO.

Sounds amazing. I imagine after a 3rd cat delete it's going to be even more insane. Has anyone done that yet or is every worried about emissions/warranties over across the pond?

I'm sure you'll get plenty of better informed replies shortly, but if you've got an FE 1.0 allocation locked in and you bail on it for a new allocation in Texas you're going to be waiting a long, long time as most FE 2.0s are already far gone at this point so you'd be looking at a base model...

I'd really like to do another test drive at some point if it's reasonable distance from me (Raleigh, NC). Does anyone know of any Emira test drives available in the region?

New member, first post, no details or follow-up information. Smells of trolling.

I think it's a a clever, alliterative way to express the mental journey that @TomE has experienced while attempting to move from the Evora on to the Emira ;) Or perhaps his take on what others may be feeling (particularly the last one on the list)

I hope you're right, @Porter. I'm eager to experience that Lotus ownership experience and I (as I'm sure many others) appreciate your posts in this forum. Perhaps when we have our Emiras we will have a regional meet-up sometime since we're both in the mid-Atlantic USA!

I see nothing wrong with revving up a sports car to anyone who wants to hear it roar (within reason of course, not in a neighborhood at night kind of thing). After all, aren't these things basically toys to be enjoyed? If that's immature then I guess I'll be a kid forever like you @Magicman :)

I like them all but I don't know if I could ever justify $5K for just a wing. It feels wrong in my soul. Also, how is the diffuser less than 1/4th the cost of the splitter? It seems like from a materials perspective they'd be relatively close albeit the splitter is more intricate to fabricate...

Adios! No need to waste your precious time on what you view as an "amateur hour" forum at any rate.

I pulled this from a Facebook group: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPp4pRHKOqWqdfmf7gst1QHfGVKvVTEkXVNybCLAmTNKe_kPfLuCBY_llE21sJh8Q?fbclid=IwAR02EIzJXJ65SSKTmkQSF9Nv6b4-aO3xdgd7JHM4Nsdgz7UG8Lu5zfhZRQk&key=NVpOTVVwV3hkRGsybV9sbkZRR3pJb1o2UmwzbWV3 It's no V6 but it sounds pretty decent IMHO

Yeah it's difficult to find manuals at all in the U.S. nowadays and over the past decade or so they've almost faded entirely from existence. That's probably a big part of the reason the manual was so much more fun to me. It brought me back about 15 years to the last time I owned one and...

I'm not sure what will make it 'better' for a sports car. This week I test drove a 2020 Evora GT Auto just before test driving a 2011 Evora manual. Although the GT looked much more aggressive and impressive overall, the auto was laaaame and I had much more fun in the older Evora despite the...

What color is your Evora? There's a very similar one (albeit slightly different) I'm eyeballing that has yellow calipers painted in Vivid Green Metallic. The dealer photos make the color look a bit different but I LOVE the color of yours in your photos.

Fantastic and very detailed write-up! I read every word of it and really appreciate the GT4 comparison.

Welcome to the forum, @elise17! Whereabouts in the USA are you from? Whether you've already got a deposit on the Emira or just here for fun, we're happy to have you!
