    Hello and seeking advice

    I'm quite certain Naples isn't the place where you're going to explore the handling capabilities of the car. Yes, the trunk is fairly useless, but it keeps your luggage or groceries warm, so that's a win :) It does get the job done though. At least you drove one -- I bought mine sight unseen...

    Look at you go with all the mods! The steering wheel buttons can surely be a pain with their sensitivity - I'm sure that's a welcome upgrade - not one I was planning on doing anytime soon tho.

    Bummah! My Uniden R7 has paid for itself many times over -- never a false alert and crazy range, I trust it 100% They have an R8 out now, unsure how much better it is -- but it's all cheaper than a ticket and insurance increase.

    Hey I would likely buy it from you, do you have a replacement gasket too? -- PM me a price, thx!

    Hello and seeking advice

    I'm not sure if you're joking or not -- but yes, the USB is ignition powered, so when the ignition is on, the radar is on. Depending on the radar you have, you may need an adapter cable, like I did. adapter cable

    Hello and seeking advice

    Ha! How can you not do the occasional bursts of speed in this car? I don't have a trooper in the family, but I do love my Uniden R7 -- money well spent! You know Lotus didn't put that USB socket in the mirror for a dash cam! LOL

    Hello and seeking advice

    I would strongly disagree with "not a relaxing car to drive" -- this car is a dream to drive, perfectly planted and power on demand...engage cruise control at 85 mph in 6th gear on the hwy and it's silky smooth. My ONLY legit complaint to date is driver / passenger window noise above 100mph -...

    Driving shoes

    I've found that my Alpinstar motorcycle shoes work rather well -- and blend in pretty nicely...but you can get them with a few color splashes if you prefer other than all black. Comfort, traction, and feel are great, highly recommend! (note that they're not stiff like work boots - they're meant...

    ✅ Solved Shifter Knob Covers?

    LOL, I have the plain white version hoody -- that ball is super cold when it's 20 outside...but in all honestly, the hoody is rather slippery -- more for fun than function...but I still have it on there because it's warmer than the ball!

    You have what most others don't -- dealers.

    after looking at the forecast for Saturday morning, I doubt I'm going -- just brrrrrr.

    This was a great score over the holiday weekend!

    $232 a piece, all aluminum (1/2 price) I'm already in love and ready to change some oil and delete 3rd cats in the near future :D Also to note - never practice jacking up the car with the doors locked - holy hell is the car alarm loud AF! I wasn't even remotely thinking that was going to happen!

    Hey congrats to you on the purchase! What a car! I often wonder why anyone would sell it so soon and can only think it must've been their only vehicle (if so, that would surely suck). Anyway, yes that was likely my wife and I out in Cary -- she works in the area and we often try out new to us...

    Car shows "limp mode" or "reduced acceleration" warnings (possible ECU issue)

    Happened to me in the 800 mile range during normal driving - shut car down, waited 3 min, restarted, hasn't come back in over 100 miles so far.

    Thank you! I'm no expert buffer operator, but it seemed to clean up nicely with only a wash then buffer applied wax (no polish). This green is super to look at, but man does it show swirls if you use crap microfiber towels.

    Dark Verdant Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    Hey thanks! The quality and price were both excellent...I didn't use anything fancy to hold them down, just the sticky pads that are already attached to the mats, I only used them on the door sill and driver left side footwell - the rest doesn't seem to need it at this point. Overall happy with...

    I finally took the buffer to it and removed all the dealer life swirls in the paint - figured it was a good time for some photos!
