    Nimbus Grey Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    Feels like better throttle response and somehow quicker. Sound is absolutely amazing. Can’t recommend enough. Here’s a clip of revving to about 5500. Use headphones :) I’m on my phone currently but I’ll provide more description in the proper thread when I’m home tonight or tomorrow.

    CARB is behind us...But What Actually Happened?

    I feel for you and others in CARB states. Hang in there, though. I promise, it WILL be worth the wait. I'm about 10 days into ownership and this car is amazing. It sucks big time that many US customers are STILL waiting but when the day finally comes you will *mostly* forget about all this...

    Has anyone installed the GRP Adjustable Lowering Kit? Looking for feedback.

    I'm likely going to do the same. I'm more interested in the results rather than the actual installation, although that information is helpful and welcomed as well.

    She just got her first wash (by me at least). Man, Nimbus shines like a mirror with a fresh cleaning and I haven't even PPF/corrected it yet!

    Lotus Emira Gifts Arrived for Patiently Awaiting our CARB Approval (now expected by Mid March 2024)!

    Finally made a long-term home for my gift: The pen isn't here because it's sitting in my Emira's glovebox ;)

    📓 Journals Porter's Magma BP over Tan, trips journal & reactions

    Great initial experience post and I absolutely love your spec. Very nice selection. I'm headed up to VA tomorrow (Lynchburg area) and I'm looking forward to taking the "Avoid Highways" route up from Raleigh. It's funny how much I'm using that feature for navigation now that I'm in the Emira...

    Has anyone installed the GRP Adjustable Lowering Kit? Looking for feedback.

    Hey Emira Lovers, I'm looking for any feedback from people who have installed the GRP Adjustable Lowering Kit. Specifically, I'd like to hear feedback about the following: 1. How is ground clearance with the car lowered and how much did you lower it? The car is amazing going over speedbumps...

    Congrats on the delivery, @Porter! I'll try to pay more attention to the pavement types as I drive up to VA to visit family next week as well. I'm on Sport/Goodyear setup.

    GRP Emira Decat Pipes Now Available!

    Sounds great. I'm installing mine on Tuesday and I'll provide feedback here but from what I've heard from others, it's a nice difference in sound. BTW Thanks for the tootsies, @GRP, my 2 y/o daughter LOVED them!

    Thank you for the added feedback. I have both ready to rock and plan to install them on Tuesday in Virginia at my brother's shop. I particularly appreciate the notes about the no backfires/crazy pops. I'm looking forward to getting them installed. Oh, and I took my wife out on a drive today...

    Glad the alcantara worked out for you. I recall you were on the fence about that. I'm also really happy with it. Gives it that extra special feeling since I've never had an alcantara wheel before. Monday was a bit surreal experiencing the new 'normal' just hitting the gym on a sunny day in...

    ROAD NOISE

    I noticed some wind/noise coming from the rear as well but once I pushed up the call volume to max it was easy to talk at 80mph. I don't expect the Emira to be a quiet ride and it isn't. Have you tried adjusting your call volume all the way up?

    Members from the Carolinas

    Whenever you can, please post more videos of this setup. In particular, I really want to make sure the burbles/cracks are not loud pops that sound like backfires. My BMW M Perf exhaust is really awesome on my 340i but when you let off the throttle under heavy acceleration is makes some pretty...

    What can I do about Tiny Pedals, Huge Blind Spot and Touchy Brakes?

    My two cents: 1) I have the same issue w/ size 10. I found that my gym shoes with narrower and shorter soles (more feeling) help immensely. I'm sure the driving shoes mentioned here are great as well. I've just accepted that I need to adjust/up my shoe game for this car. I don't love that I...

    I hate to say it: Nimbus Colored Side Sills / Skirts?

    I know looks are subjective, but before @VL3X posted this I was about to say the exact same thing. Please. Don't.

    I was going to the gym tonight and noticed a bunch of cars with their hoods up in the back of the huge lot (it was late and empty). I decided to go say hi so I pulled up in my Emira and was swarmed by at least 15-20 18-24ish year olds and several knew about the Emira and were all but freaking...

    Seems like lots of us received different items. I got a nice pen and the Emira keychain but no lanyard or key tag (or book).

    More details for KEF Audio

    I didn't go 80mph today but I was cruising around 60 on some backroads with the windows down and the system sounded plenty loud and good at no more than half volume. I think you'll be fairly pleased once you tweak it and experience it. HTH! EDIT: BTW, I don't notice a major difference in...

    Keeping the car in Tour mode for the 1000 mile break-in

    Spoke with one of the good dealers around. They said they'd never heard of the Tour requirement and specifically mentioned their demo cars have been run in sport/track almost entirely prior to run-in. I'm not saying that's best, but I hardly think any dealer or Lotus will reject warranty...

    More details for KEF Audio

    Honestly just go to Audio > Equaliser and turn them all (Bass, Mid, Treble) up to max. So far that seems to be the best sounding setting for me and that's what I had in this video. Seems like it just gives the system more oomph across the spectrum by cranking them all up.
