Well that guy measured 4.78sec. not that I would care though…

is this really confirmed? I think I haven‘t read it here on the forum.

Thanks for the opinions. I will try to testdrive the GT430 and I will also try to testdrive the Emira again because it has been 2 years since my testdrive. Maybe I can schedule it so I can testride them almost back to back. I can report back if anyone is interested.

Hey Need some opinions here. (Didnt know how to start a poll, maybe I can add it later?) My plan was to order an Emira V6 base later this year once V6 base prices are out and the V6 is finally back in the conifgurator. Also thinking about buying used if base price would be too high and the...

Well I dont have an Emira yet but I would try to put it between the two seats on the rear window just in front of the engine. If this is too far back (which I doubt, as with a suction cup you can extend the arm a bit and with the hypersmooth feature there wont be too much movement), I would...

-2.5 seems a bit much, at least if you have the Goodyears and stock suspension. I am not sure but back in the days I believe my Track Audi TTS by Raeder Motorsport (Dunlop Direzzas with KW Clubsport suspension) was at around -2.5 and that cars turn in was fantastic. Can anyone confirm -.5...

just came across this review. Everything this guy is saying (especially in comparison to the cayman) is spot on and is exactly my point of view after testdriving the Emira and the 718 GT4 almost back to back (two years ago)

Quick question. You say front camber is maxed out at -1.3. What is the stock camber setting on the Emira? As I felt like turn in didnt feel that good and thought whenever I get an Emira first mod would be to increase camber at the front. So I am quiet curious what the stock setting is and if...

Thats what I am saying😂😂😂 No I think you can see the green hue and the blue hue if dou look closely ;-)

Since when are suction cups on track (inside the car!) frowned upon?

Not really, both colors show its nature even under clouds. This is verdant and meridian (with silver wrap)

Hmm I dont take my chances. If anything goes by plan I could see myself order one at the end of summer so it will be here by spring 26.

This! Noone knows if Toyota keeps on building the V6 for Lotus. They might, they might not. I believe IF they stop making the engine (for Lotus), its out of emission regulations that are getting too strict and not that they dont use it in the camry anymore. We‘ll see. Either way I do believe...

I dont like to put out random rumors but the dealer that told me order books for base models will open soon (in switzerland) said there will be only a limited number/orders available and once these are done there will come something different but also with 6 cylinders but he didnt have any...

looks like they didnt sell the i4 well in europe, you can actually get a new i4 with 20%+ off. Lotus knows this and they will come up with a solution. If the Toyota V6 runs out (which it might does) I bet there will come something different.

Today I got a call from the dealer. Looks like V6 order books should open again (for the first time after the FE) this year. (Switzerland)

I already spoke to my dealer and he still hasnt any base price informations but he said 2025 V6 Emiras should arrive in autumn. My question was directed at @hentzG

Well I asked the same in a different thread and OP said its not only for the Us but for the whole world, as toyota is closing production of the V6. So many confusing rumors without anyone knowing facts… well its the internet I guess. Only time will tell whos right and whos wrong.

Thank you very much, this is good information and is getting my hopes up!! Do you have any more info when the order books will open again in 2025? I am planning to get one in switzerland if base price isnt higher than the original FE.

This on the other hand was already posted a week ago and its not clear what is meant exactly, as it says the closing date in Feb is for 2025 cars abd order books might open again for 2026.

This is just a copy paste of the Mail that Wizz33 received AFAIK.

My dealer just told me to expect MY 2025 Emiras in autumn this year. Hasnt got any base price as of now and dodnt say anything about V6 running out… is this only for the US??

Doesnt matter who‘s fault it is. When your dead your dead…

Ok thats it. All it needs is the yellow brake calipers and I am done

This is my bet too. As soon as its clear that there isnt coming a hotter manual V6, i jump on a V6 FE or base car, either new (depends on the price of the base car) or used. I am patient, just bought a new XC90 for the family so can use some time to save up.

You know there has been said so much on the internet, I believe it when I see it. Plus V6 can still be ordered in some countries. We will see.

I will wait to buy as long as I am sure that there wont be coming a hotter/faster V6 manual version. Only then I will get the V6 manual with a piece of mind. And I wont even be disapointed as the base car is already more than enough for public street. Nonetheless, if there is coming a hotter V6...

This is the absolut perfect amount of lowering the Emira. Very well done!

Yes the i4 on my dealers lot had paint bubbles on the doors.

Yeah no that is a no from me. Too big, looks kinda off and destroys the cars lines/looks.

Hmm I would take that with a grain of salt. And certainly doesnt explain why there is still no laptime published. I think a lot of people would be curious where the emira stands compared to the other Lotus.

So fast forward 3 years and we still have no (in)official laptime of the Emira on Hethel testtrack? If the Enira GT4 (!) did it in 1:26, the normal Emira V6 must surely be a lot slower…

Well switzerland does not even have a base version in the configurator, only the 2.0 FE. So there‘s that…

Learning that the Elise S2 and the Evora had the same problem, there is probably a zero percent change Lotus is going to resolve the problem on the Emira. Looks like one has to live with it…

Again, its not only the doors. They would have to change basically all the panels in the process which is likely never going to happen.
