    3rd Cat Delete

    Waiting anxiously for whoever is the first to get the third cat replaced with a straight pipe. See how much louder that is before considering full exhaust upgrades from Larini or 2bular. I wouldn’t mind the option of pressing a button and having it scream like an F355 on the B-roads

    The great big "all the customer test drives" thread

    Interested to hear how much louder the cars sound after having clocked about 2,500 to 3,000 miles. A comment on Facebook from someone who just collected their car yesterday was told the car it will get a bit louder when it’s been well run in

    Emiras advertised for sale on other sites

    Can’t seem to find the post anymore, maybe they took it down Someone was just saying they were taking delivery this month, blue car in the same spec as the show car. Due to change of circumstances they are willing to take offers. No indication of price given.

    2bular looking for UK Emira owner to help develop exhaust options

    3rd Cat Delete

    I was in contact with David before Christmas, and he told me that they have one car coming in next month (Jan), but ideally they would like a second car to work on

    3rd Cat Delete

    I think if you want a full 3rd cat delete, lowest cost option could be waiting for Greg (GRP) to make a straight pipe. It would good to see a pic of the 3rd cat on the Emira to see if the existing Evora one would fit

    Matt Windle interview with Car and Driver

    I’m surprised that they’re still taking deposits on the V6. I don’t know how they can produce all of these ICE cars as well as a new line of electric sports cars. It wouldn’t surprise me if the electric sports car doesn’t look exactly the same as the Emira. Given that it wasn’t too...

    Finance tool disappeared from Lotus website (Edit - Now working)

    @Evotion I thought you were dead set on an Emira after that test drive video, if not we need to nominate you for a BAFTA after that performance 😃

    Finance tool disappeared from Lotus website (Edit - Now working)

    8.9% is very steep APR, especially when you will struggle to find more much than a 3.6% return on a GBP time deposit at this time. If you have cash it makes sense to pay in full

    Finance tool disappeared from Lotus website (Edit - Now working)

    I don’t understand these PCP offers, they just appear to be a total ripoff Basically costing you £50,000 to borrow the car for four years

    Finance tool disappeared from Lotus website (Edit - Now working)

    Not planning on trading in but was curious just to see what their site would offer. still offering £6000 more than “we buy any car” but shaft you

    That’s a 22% drop on my six month old Tesla

    The part exchange values are very low but higher than some other sites. Lotus is showing depreciation of 22% on a 6 month old car

    Matt Windle interview with Car and Driver

    What do they have to say about V6 Auto’s ?. It’s possible there is still no type approval in the UK

    Matt Windle interview with Car and Driver

    If the V6 Auto doesn’t actually start production within the next 3 months, I am sure that will trigger a lot more cancellations. As for the i4 cars, I wouldn’t be surprised if they never materialise

    Matt Windle interview with Car and Driver

    10,000 orders seems high, The way things are going It will take them 10 years to produce that. And then on top of that they’re going to be producing a new electric sports car. Good luck to them

    What's the first mod you did or plan to do for your Emira?

    3rd cat delete, or replaced with Larini sports cat if that improves the sound

    Emira Review Index [V6 FE]

    I would safely guess if you put an Emira next to a Cayman/911 and BMW M2, did the equivalent of the Pepsi challenge where you picked 10 people off the street to look at all three, and sit in them all, then started the engine in all three cars. Told them they all within 15k of each other, and...

    Exhaust valves

    When Larini get a car in next month for exhaust development purposes, we will find out if the Emira was fitted with a petrol particulate filter, despite us being advised it wouldn’t.

    Lotus cancelled my order

    Looks like Ford also reneged on the deal, by extending the production run Those handpicked customers thought they were buying an exclusive car, and it turns out that there were far more produced than initially thought

    That’s good news

    Exhaust valves

    Komotec offer a remote control for the valves on some Evora models, hopefully they can offer a workaround for the Emira I think @TomE had suggested previously that you should be able to fire the Emira up in Sports mode by switching modes prior to second button push, but @scoates is saying not...

    UK deposit to order checkout to delivery process

    By nature you always hear problems first, I am now starting think I have dodged a bullet by having my car delayed 6 months into the production start. Assuming it’s still on for March build. But I could be in the first batch of Auto’s with teething problems, sigh!

    Call from Lotus to receive an Emira FE 1 year earlier !

    Better not be, anxiously waiting for the lotus site to update to show the final stats for the auto. Keen to know if it’s still coming with higher torque than the manual Previous auto Evora’s had lower redline’s than manuals. I suspect due to the gearbox weakness, so it may be they have...

    The great big "all the customer test drives" thread

    Does anyone feel that the exhaust sound is a lot quieter compared to the shadow grey car touring demo car. That sounded really good Or did that only sound louder, because a lot of the videos of it being revved were taken inside ?
