    Apple Car Play Issue

    I had the same issue. When a song ends, it sometimes would not automatically play the next song (stays on pause instead). No fix yet, but it doesn't happen 100%.

    Sorry to hear that. Having a dealership nearby is must for me before I decided to buy a Lotus.

    Any Ice Grey regrets?

    All my previous cars had black interior, so I wanted a non-black interior. Out of all the colors I liked the Ice Gray most. 1 year and 2000 miles in, the Ice Gray interior is still holding up well. I did the Gtechniq coating when I first picked up the car but haven't maintained it ever since.

    Tint Percentage with Privacy glass?

    I ended up removing the 50% tint on the wind shield because the shop didn't do a good job keeping the specks away. But I didn't experience any issues with visibility at night or with sunglasses. Probably a bit more reflection of the dash under the sunlight.

    US used car market confusion

    Car prices vary a lot by location. Basically all cars at the dealerships near the Seattle area are priced higher than everywhere else.

    US Lotus portal updated with 2026 models, Raceline is now available

    $7800 for a paint is getting crazy, especially when Lotus is not known for great paint quality.

    I'm most interested in this new driver assistance package. Curious to see if this can be retro fitted.

    Which options would you drop if you ordered now?

    No scorpion tracker for me. It doesn't work so well and requires a subscription. I would also add this newly available assistance package. Wondering if it can be retrofitted into previous model years.

    iPhone holder win!!

    Very similar to my setup, but I liked the wireless charging function. The vent can blow cold air to cool the phone and charger. Wireless CarPlay only pooped itself a couple of times during the 1 year ownership so I enjoyed the convenience.

    3rd Cat Delete on Emira – Is the Milltek Valve Controller Really Necessary?

    I did the VC first and then 3rd cat delete. I think the VC had a much more noticeable difference. Even in sport or track mode you would not get 100% open until high revs.

    Auto only: Turbo vs V6?

    Manual RS cars will be fantastic but also super rare like the 911 R and ST and come with an insane price tag. I don't think Porsche will ever release a manual for 718 platform as it's coming to an end, even if they could use the manual transmission from GT3.

    Newbie: Considering a switch - 911 to Emira

    It's difficult to predict the overall reliability of Emira. My friend and I have owned the V6 manual for over 1 year now, no real issues so far except for occasional warning lights. But another owner had a radiator fan failure and broke down on the highway. Your mileage may vary.

    VF Tuner for the Lotus Emira

    Highly interested in this as well. I prefer an ECU flash that unlocks the rev limiter than a piggyback system that adds more power.

    Removing factory seat and installing Tillet B10-tips and tricks

    The seat pads look really good. Replacing just the driver seat doesn't look like it's out of place. How much does this cost?

    Track talk modifications

    It is on my list, but I prefer seats that kept the reclining feature for easier access to the storage space behind. I don't track my Emira very often so still would like to keep the daily drivability as much as possible. But either way I will need to try them first.

    Zinc Grey I4 pics with Aerie cf and exhaust

    Another benefit is that the Bride ones can offer recline adjustability. They are not track-focused fixed bucket seats. The weight is 14 kg as listed on the Bride-jp website.
