Well, the plot thickens. While reading the manual, I noticed there is another area highlighted as having radar aside from the visible circular sensors, and it does note that PPF can affect it (on a previous page). Note the red area on the left and right of the bumper here. I thought this was...

That's a nice spec. Good luck!

Another user figured out you can put the Torque app up on the smartphone display on the center screen. That's what I'm intending to do. But yes, modding the center could still be handy so you're not taking over the center display.

OP noted Aerie, but GRP has them as well.

Weird...these are earlier VINs, well before my 3915 VIN. So the 10 out-of-sequence I4s (4000 VINs) must have been rushed high-priority dealer demos, as we had assumed.

They share the VIN when it's being built. Yours may not be built yet. While I'm not the person you asked, I would imagine the process is the same for the autos. The Atlanta dealer gave me mine when it was being built, but it's not here yet. (V6 manual, 982 days since deposit)

If you look at the reliability thread, only two owners on the poll have noted they have been to the dealer multiple times. The later cars are decently well-sorted. Not Lexus reliable, but not Land Rover laughable.

Ah! This makes way more sense. Thank you. Yes, part of what I was deciding when ordering the Emira is if I would use it for autocross. We (my wife also races) decided to keep using our other cars for cones and keep the Emira as a weekender. For autocross, yeah, you definitely need the factory...

What stands are those? I'm using the old four-leg style with the U-shaped pad that are intended to hold a pinch rail. I'd prefer to have the puck style like these.

No front plate on my other cars that do this (rear only plates in my state), so I'll update if the behavior is similar when I get the Emira...981 days now. I would be interested to hear from the front plate folks vs. the no front plate folks.

Well, I'll be damned. I'll stick with the OEM spec until there are crazy improvements in tire tech over time. Thanks!

I have an old Mitsubishi Evo VIII and have been very happy with the Pilot Sport 4S. I think that's what I'm aiming for with my set after the Goodyears go. I'm also interested in exploring the Pilot Super Sport, which is an OEM Ferrari tire. Edit: Much like the Pilot Super Sport has a "K" spec...

Yeah, from the Harry's Garage videos in the factory, it's just 415 instead of 400 springs, and different shocks. Should be a simple swap.

Hello! I live in Chattanooga. I debated long and hard about this before I made my order. The sports suspension on my Elise was great when being pushed hard, but we have some rough roads on the mountains around here and that's when it seemed to come apart. And not even mentioning the ride...

My VIN is 3912, and it appears they stopped just before mine and then sent the later I4 demos. So I'm hoping mine inched down the line just behind them, but out of priority sequence for shipping.

Nope, V6 manual. Deposit 12/21, ordered 2/24, got the VIN 6/24...no car.

I'm also still waiting...since 12/1/21...For my FE2 V6 manual. I have a VIN but no car.

Yeah, when they chatted with the factory manager on Harry's Garage, he basically said that back in 2023. He said some customer cars had arrived before the dealer demos, and the sales staff were miffed at the production folks, but they had to balance what they had parts to complete with the...

I always assumed it was frequency filtration (kind of like the old X-band radar detectors and the grocery store sliding doors)...It never occurred to me that it could be a sensor angle issue. Interesting! That's possible. The G80 appears to hate specific things more than others and will...

Especially considering we know they have been produced. They're just waiting for some unknown reason (including mine).

My S600 and my G80 do this CONSTANTLY, to the point that turning off the parking sensors at start-up is in my muscle memory. Oddly, my BMW and my Miata do not do this...but the S600 is so bad that it will pretty much constantly squawk at any point while driving at parking lot speeds. This isn't...

Probably similar to the ultra-compact 10" enclosure I have in my antique standard-cab pickup. It definitely does a lot for low-end fill, and response goes down to about 40 Hz if I recall correctly.

For sure. Although the sample is still from a tainted well, but it's better than no sample. Of the ones you mentioned, I think only the paint bubbling is still an issue, and the poll done on that thread indicated it was something like 4% of the cars made after 11/23, if I recall correctly...

My VIN is 3912, so these 10 with later VINs are definitely out of sequence. I guess that is part of the "prioritization" effort where VIN sequence does not necessarily match the relative importance of each unit. They build what they can when they can. The sad part is mine is built, it's just...

Also, although your poll is certainly encouraging, don't forget about the "adverse selection" aspect of forums. Most folks are here because they needed a specific answer at one point. However, you will notice as many folks talking about painting the numbers on their shift knob as complaining...

I live in Chattanooga. We'll have to get together!

As an uneducated (non-audiophile) American, I had never heard of KEF before this. But I also thought the system in the demo sounded fine...Not great, but my expectations were not very high for a sports car, so it delivered just fine for a sports car that is not a grand touring car. My Mercedes...

I'm still a fan of Occam's Razor and think someone forgot to remove some shipping tape from the air inlet or outlet. Enough bass dislodges it, and...magic!

Makes me wonder if there's some kind of a piece of film or tape over something that eventually dislodges and improves airflow?

I just noticed the open-air sub is visible in this YouTube video at 1:21 (the link should go directly there). It's more obvious how it fits than in the previous diagrams I have seen.

I messaged WeatherTech with a request on 6/1 as well, so hopefully seeing multiple requests will get them motivated.

I'm in Chattanooga, and once my Emira arrives (allegedly this month) I'll be doing the PPF, breaking it in, then heading to the mountains!

Since my Emira has not yet arrived after 974 days since my deposit, I have been consoling myself by reading the owner's manual. 😋 There were some interesting items, such as having a solar sensor to help provide extra cooling to the side of the car where the sun is entering (common on nice cars...

Interesting. What I was told yesterday by Lotus USA is this: I texted my dealer, who replied: "I just checked and it's showing produced but no port arrival date yet". So...yeah.

While I am genuinely happy for you, it kills me that I deposited two years prior to several of you and we have essentially the same delivery date. I guess I'm the end of the CARB delays, but geeze. It has been 974 days so far, and it should crack close to 1000 days before I get it. I wonder if...

It doesn't look objectionable to me, especially compared to the paint on my former Elise. But if it bothers you, certainly mention it to your dealer for documentation if nothing else.

Hethel Yellow, yellow roof, but with black wheels and black calipers. I have yet to see another one exactly the same, which is odd.

Definitely do a test drive. It was not until I saw and drove the Emira that I said, "Yes, this is what I want. I'm glad I put down a deposit." I had test-driven an Evora 400 previously and decided it was not for me. So yes, experience them all!
