It looks like Garmin hs a secondary kit that plugs into OBD port and allows you to switch how long you want the power. I am thinking if I get one of their usual cameras and add this kit to use only when i need it (the parked mode with say 5-6 hours) i cn just store the cabling in glove box and...

I'm in a bit of an odd situation on this. Ideal would be a quick USB wire to mirror, and a unit that could record say 4-5 hours without external battery when parked. It appears I'm out of luck right?

Very cool. Summarizes what I've thought -- Osmium is a "cold" silver and Nimbus is a "warm" silver.

what color s this? nimbus?

just got mine. Now to get a car to attach it to...

Yup. I still think it looks like a modern Dino.

Congrats to those who have taken delivery! Has anyone noticed any difference in the way the car behaves? Specifically, is there any change in throttle responsiveness or rev hang from the demo (european) cars that many of us drove?

Should we set up a badge exchange thread?

Not a fan of wings myself. I really like the design language of the Emira and to me it looks like a modern Dino...and I've never even heard of someone putting a wing on the Dino. That said my personal taste tends to the lower-key. Ordered Nimbus in part for this reason. I get the flashier look...

This makes me very pleased with my choice of Nimbus! enjoy!

just don't put them in the trunk...

Baby supercar. I actually think its looks, V6 and performance make it a spiritual successor to the Dino. In fact, put a Dino badge on it and a prancing horse on the steering wheel hub and it would sell out at a quarter million. And all the issues would immediately be forgiven.

I think of Nimbus as a "warm" silver and osmium as a "cold" sliver

It is a convertible, which we were told we'd never get. Will likely fail rollover test...

a roll of electrical tape an a pair of scissors will fix that

Hey -- do any DC (or Alexandria!) folks have a PPF person they like, or is there any sort of group purchase? I have a referral but haven't called yet.

Yup. To be honest I kind of like the idea of the look of an Emira with a bike on a Seasucker. Sports car goes to support a, um, sport.

Alas not viable with Carbon wheels, even if the car allows for a hitch connection (not sure whether the Emira does). These racks put the bike wheels close to the exhaust, and expensive carbon wheels can be melted as a result.

I concur. I have a good friend with a 911 who uses one for our rides. Indeed, we've talked about taking both cars out, doing a ride, then driving the same roads. Should be fun. The seasucker thing makes me think I can't ppf the roof, though I'm on the fence about ppf anyway (yes, I've read...

I really really like him. I'll never be him (alas), but I'm happy to be inspired. Also, based on the cars we have both driven, he seems to notice and value the same things I do! I have a similar opinion to his of the new 5-series abomination.

Happy to! I was a ride leader for a long time and am more than happy to get you some inspiration to ride again. Lots to ride around here...and I'm looking into a rack so I can take the Emira for my longer country rides.

Hi everyone and thanks for the welcome! @Porter I've never been, thouygh I have ridden past it a number of times (I'm a big cyclist and Ft. Hunt is one of the neighborhoods I frequent). My great friend lives down that way east of the GW and has a neighbor whom I think has an Elise...I assume...

Hi everyone -- Been reading this for some time. I've wanted a Lotus since I was eight. I love the Giugario Esprits and the Stephens Esprits, but at 6'3 and change I simply don't fit. I've had some fun driver's cars over the years but nothing at this level. I've enjoyed several Hondas in my...
