Very pleased to see the i4 info released today, also my annual bonus day - what a coincidence! I guess I need to stick that away safely. A question for the group, will early depositors (June 8 here) be allocated the first i4's? I seemed like the doors would burst open on the 8th April to all comers

Excellent news. I got a bit too excited there as the op was about the i4 which is what I am waiting for as well

For an i4?

I have just paid the initial £2k, nothing else so far for my i4. I had the first phone call to pick V6 or i4 and nothing since

Many thanks Tom. Any concept of potential delivery time. I placed a deposit on the 7th July

I had a good look around and could not see this question asked recently. Is there any clarity when the FE i4 ordering (phone calls) process will start? All these updates are building my excitement and am now regretting not ordering a V6 just to have got one of the first cars. Nah, not really...

Dang, the red is stunning, I have gone from firm Blue to Yellow both with black pack and now Red without Black.

I had a little boy around 5 I guess get very excited when I pulled out of a parking bay today in my Tesla jumping about pointing and pulling his dad's sleeve. So some people still excited about them even if they are only 5 years old.

I have a Tesla Model 3 Performance as a daily driver currently (LOL). It is a company car so bought for mainly tax reasons but also because I like new stuff and gadgets. I also have a M235i which I also love even if it is slower in almost every way to the Tesla and range is not much better...

Took my wife to see it and she went from "why are we going to this stupid car event for a car that is a year away" to "can we get one sooner and can we have the blue one".

You should read what he said about Ferrari a few years back, puts the Evora comments in the shade and he is back praising them again.

The Blue car is 20mm artificially low as befits a show car

I asked the Lotus engineer this question at the Ashford event. He said you were unlikely to get the full benefit of sport suspension on public roads, it was really tuned for track days and really getting on it. He also said the touring setup as probably way more than most people will exceed on a...

Ordered on the 8th of July and just got my Lotus call today. Started by asking if V6 or i4 and I chose i4. He then explained that there would be more info on the i4 specs and prices at the end of Nov/beg Dec. We will get another call after that to spec and confirm our i4 FE or defer further for...

Had a great hour or so in Ashford today, danish pastries, fruit platter, tea and coffee if anyone wondering about the food ;-) Very well staffed with folks from the dealership and the Lotus team that travel with the car. Not much to add to the information reported and confirmed in previous...

That's encouraging as I am 5'10" with short legs, space looks excellent for the two of us on a weekend away possibly longer with that space.

We have an appointment to see the Emira in Ashford on Sunday, anyone else on here on the list? Will be bringing my slightly uncertain wife to try and tip her over the edge so to speak. My thoughts have always been i4 but the temptation of sooner is a powerful influence even if extra money is the...

Nice work sir. I will tell you when I have chosen my colours LOL

Paid on the 8th July and no call yet

I am curious as to how many folks will be using their Emira as a daily driver. Mine will be used by either me or my wife as a daily driver but we do have a Tesla (my company car) that we share as well that will be used for shopping and taking the bikes out etc.

I need to think more, a V6 would be awesome but I was hoping closer to £60k than £80k

Thanks @prestonc Did you get any idea what the process was for those wanting the i4 FE?

I am still in the honeymoon period of the Tesla, it is just soooooo fast and easy to drive so probably my fave daily driver. Still get a kick from the M235i engine and the way it handles but it is the BMW that will leave to make way for the Emira.

Deposit paid on the 8th, no specs defined yet but will probably be Blue V6.

Hi All As soon as I saw the Emira I had to have one. Deposit placed on the 8th and looking forward to seeing one in the flesh. Never owned a Lotus before but the Esprit was my dream car when I was a kid and I had a friend with a couple of old Elan’s. I have a Tesla model 3 performance and BMW...
