    What did you do to your Emira today?

    Just dropped off my car for ppf, window tint and wheel caliper ceramic coating. Waiting for pick up next Monday. ;)

    Exhaust recommendations in Seattle/Eastside?

    I have been to Car Spa in Bellevue for clutch replacement on my Evo. Pretty good price (lowest among the several shops I quoted) and no complains about their work. Exhaust mods should be an easy job for them.

    I live in East Redmond near Ames Lake, so the way back home from dealership along the NE Union Hill Rd is the twisty bit. You can check the link below for some of the fun roads to drive: https://maps.app.goo.gl/6fWsnbScyXjxfLyr6 https://maps.app.goo.gl/GwHvCVpzvSa5US2x7...

    I have the sport suspension. I only drove the Emira for 30 mins and it reminds me of my Evo. They both provide very raw and mechanical feedback throug steering and chassis and the shifter feels kind of similar too. But Emira is even sharper and more planted through the corners thanks to the...

    Guys, I took delivery of the car on 7/3 and I can finally enjoy the moment of becoming an Emira owner. Took me a couple of minutes to get used to driving it first time but man, this is amazing to drive. I loved my Supra but I never had so much fun driving a car on a twisty road. The excitement...

    Never will sell that car

    I've seen them side by side. Emira has super car vibe while the MC20 is a proper super car (also like 3x the price). The MC20 could be a good choice after years of depreciation thou

    Emira 2026?

    For future models, some Chinese Lotus dealers are taking orders for Emira X, a road legal version of the GT4. Not sure if it would come to other markets thou.

    Harry sells his Emira

    I traded in my GR Supra for the Emira, but it doesn't mean I don't like the Supra or anything is wrong. The Supra has been a phenomenal car and arguably more reliable and tunable than the Emira. It's also holding the value really well. Supra and Emira are very different animals and I just prefer...

    I saw my car yesterday at the dealership when I traded in my GR Supra 3.0 MT. Seeing the car I ordered in person is really exciting, especially when the spec is kind of unique with white interior and silver caliper. Unfortunately, the dealership had a queue of Emiras waiting for PDI and...

    How to improve Emira blind spot?

    Since Emira does not have lane change assist, a blind spot mirror like this will help. I had this before on my older cars and it work pretty well.

    According to Nova's shipping info my car has arrived at the Baltimore port on 5/13. I've been checking with my dealer but they don't have any updates either. Does anyone from the 5/13 batch have any updates or take delivery already? How long does it usually take from at port to delivery?

    Post a pic of the car you replaced with your Emira! And impressions too.

    Haven't received by Emira yet but I will be replacing my manual Supra with it. Had the Supra for over a year and it's been a really great sports car. In stock form it's very refined and a great daily (poor visibility thou), and this platform has so much potential. But I still prefer the raw and...

    Specifically for WA you need to own the car for more than 90 days to avoid paying use tax. Check out the link below: https://dor.wa.gov/forms-publications/publications-subject/tax-topics/vehicles-brought-washington-out-state

    We made the list!

    I like Emira more for its raw and mechanical feedback. I only test drove an Emira shortly so couldn't say much of a comparison, but the overall setup of the MT Supra is very refined. The steering is very BMW, precise but not much feedback. Suspension wise Supra has adaptive damper and softer...

    Arch Guards / Mudflaps - anyone have these installed?

    Can you share more photos from further back? Thanks!

    We made the list!

    GR86/BRZ and Miata are in another class of "affordable sports cars". I have a MT Supra and ordered an Emira. I would say for most people Supra would probably be a better choice than Emira.

    Should be able to do this by some coding, but I'm not sure how. With Bimmercode, I can choose which mode my GR Supra starts with. I would assume the same can be done on an Emira.

    Ppf full body

    Not all ppf's are the same, so you really need to look into the shop. I was quoted from 5k to 10k for a full body ppf.

    They may look similar at first glance but still very different. The blue on the MC20 is deeper and stronger and more metallic. The Seneca Blue is deeper than I expected too.

    Spotted at Velocity Honolulu. Looks just like a baby supercar next to the MC20, which is like 3x the price. And they both have V6 :sneaky:
