Sorry but it’s not pointless for those of us who need a car. This isn’t a weekend fun car purchase it’s a daily driver for me and I’ve got a car that needs replaced. It’s absurd that I can’t get a reasonable expectation of when my car might be delivered and that the time I was told has now...

Well this is bullshit. I placed my order with the dealer with the most lotus sales in the world because I was told they would be allotted more cars because they sold so many Evoras. And now dealers who haven’t sold shit are getting the bulk of them and my spot for FE apparently is gone.

Don’t want panels being removed on a brand new car so that’s out

Not sure how available spray ppf is.

With cup2s hopefully 😂

I will miss my blind spot detection!! Busy traffic has saved me more than once.

Bmw is a top notch automaker. You sound a bit fringe dude. Chill.

I really want the color stitched interior but don’t want alcantara. I assume that cannot be done

As much as you all are spending on this car, get your monitors calibrated 😂

Cup2 in cold weather might as well be hockey pucks 😂

Clear ceramic tint solves that. Except for our German friends

I did!

I would definitely consider a trip to pick up my car at the factory!! Not sure how that would work with left hand drive. No issues at the Welt in Germany…

ARGH, the new configurator shows the yellow striped wheel in video even though I can't get it - it's taunting me! (also doesn't seem to change the interior at all - was trying to see what that red interior would look like) edit: the calipers also seem to be self lighting, a definite bug there...

They better not drill my front bumper

Multiple European car companies allow this. I have done it on multiple occasions with German auto makers. It is generally time limited – I think Bmw restricts you for two weeks. They give you registration, insurance, and then when the car is imported into the US it’s actually imported as a used...

I'm back and forth between Yellow and Blue at this point - sticking point for me is that I can't get contrasting stitch with leather and plain black leather I'm worried will be dark and boring. Really like the tan, but lotus says Tan leather with Yellow is "not recommended". If I could get...

Next Up, @prestonc Fashion week in Milan All in good fun - no offense intended mate!

I’m buying v6 - I’ll trade for the turbo 4 r when I hear an exhaust that doesn’t sound like a farting bees nest.

That’s pissing me off. No reason we can’t have contrast stitching in leather.

You generally pull the trim and run the wire under. Will need to do that to connect to rear cam anyway.

Snobby may appeal to some but it turns me off big time. If I call to order a car and my money isn’t good enough for you then I’ll shop elsewhere. I’m not trying to join a secret society I just want a quality product.

Dimensions are not at all the same.

I remember the original x cars and have always had an affinity for them. I considered the new z but it didn’t quite stir the soul the same.

I get the topic/thread, but never seeing the blue and yellow in these comparisons leaves me wanting. Signed, choosing beggar

There’s a white one and dark blue - <confusion face>

Maybe you folks already new about this option, but I didn't. I didn't want a wrap because durability and longevity is an issue. But PPF was either clear or matte. I -like- many of the color options for FE, but just don't LOVE any of them. Apparently there is another option! I just today saw...

I think that’s an entirely fair summary. The interior is definitely a let-down. Compared with the porsche configutor the options to make the cabin an enjoyable space are almost non-existent. Never been in the others you mention as they are far out of my price range.

I don’t want ANY politics - my goodness I can’t go ANYWHERE today without fighting and arguing and politicians (and “celebrities” or GAG “influencers”) thinking that I should give a rat’s ass what they say. I want to come here and think about CARS and not have the same absurd conflict that has...

For some reason the mountain looks “right” that way even though you messed up the steering. 😁

Wish I do

That picture looks pretty flat / non-metallic. I was hoping the blue would not have much metallic flake - would you agree having seen it? I know the camera doesn't always capture all the details.

TLDR: bookmark and obsess. At first I could remember which threads had the best renders from @Eagle7 , but I've gotten overloaded as he's just amazingly generous. You probably all know this but in case you don't - hit the "bookmark" tag top right of an individual post within a thread, give it...

I think ppf lasts significantly longer. It’s much thicker.

Wrap doesn’t last as long that’s my issue. Otherwise I would get a bright orange wrap

😂😂😂😂😂

US seems to be 3-5K for partial PPF and 4-8K for full body PPF depends on where you live. No downside to getting it all done except cost. I hate paint chips and so will be spending the money.
