    No Emira for me 😕

    Now you're just doing it to do it. Stop with these old posts! You can just read them and not comment; it just clogs up the front page of the forums where I am just trying to read new stuff.

    Harry's Garage videos - visit to Hethel and Matt Windle interview, Emira collection and drive

    This was buried deep in the comments, but may be a helpful explanation for some: Harry's garage 6 hours ago You have to have EU type approval first before you can go for UK approval. Hence why they could ship cars to EU before UK. Same thing happening in the USA, I understand they have...

    Limited edition Evija...(all sold)

    You see this, then you see the FE badge on the dash, and you wonder if they are even the same company?

    Who has experience owning an R8? Any thoughts?

    Beautiful ride! $10k for a clutch=ouch! Whole engine have to be removed for that? That's a car worth keeping for sure.

    Anyone received their 30 day notification yet?

    Emailed my dealer this afternoon for an update on test drives or demos since it will be snowing here within a month or so. My paragraph got this response: "I haven't heard anything yet." Awesome, perfect.

    Who has experience owning an R8? Any thoughts?

    I knew you would chime in :) That thing is a beauty! Love Daytona Gray on any model Audi. I am guessing prices will drop some in the coming months with everything happening in the financial world, I will keep an eye on them. I think overall the servicing costs aren't terrible, and I think a...

    So where's the US Emira demo(s)?

    My dealer only wanted a refundable $2,500 deposit, and I am in for an FE, supposedly to be delivered Q2 '23

    Who has experience owning an R8? Any thoughts?

    I have loved the R8 for years, and everytime I see one I think they still are an iconic/classic design. I have always believed the V10 to be the best sounding engine, and sound is very big for me. The earlier models with the manual transmission is enticing, but they are getting up there in age...

    So where's the US Emira demo(s)?

    I think I might keep my deposit in and possibly just pursue something else. Worst case, I get my deposit back next spring, or maybe I FINALLY see a car in person and test drive it and love it and keep it. I don't know, just a bit miffed by Lotus themselves at this point.

    Anyone received their 30 day notification yet?

    About ready to up my budget by 50% and move on from this trainwreck. @TomE is feeling it more then me after the way he's been treated! I think by the time this over, the original 4 that met with Lotus people and toured the factory early on will not end up buying the car. Been how long now and...

    Hethel Yellow Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    LED lights pulse 60x per second normally. Meaning if that camera has a shutter speed of 1/120th if a second, then it will likely not catch all of them lighting up. If you wave an led light in front of your eyes quickly back and forth, it will appear to strobe, because your eyes can start to...

    @Watstone had a similar tone/sentiment to most of your posts aimed toward @Leonard :)
