    LOTUS EMIRA ─ ECU Tuning options

    They offer a base map with open fuel and ignition. Perhaps the hot ticket is that plus a local tuner. EDIT: If you look at the package page it says 91 octane US tuning available.

    I'm Doing My Due Diligence This Weekend

    I currently have a deposit in for an Emira but its still basically on hold because I haven't told them my spec yet. I think I finally have that figured out but before I really make it official I lined up a test drive for what is really the Emira's main competition. I found a 2022 Cayman GTS...

    First Edition vs Base Spec

    What s the deal with the surge of autotrader listings. Are those actually turned down cars that are available right now. I get they can be sold now but why are so many being listed.

    Post your spec!

    I requested to see some predelivery cars at the dealership to help me decide. I told them I had no intention of touching them and just wanted to see the colors on the cars. The salesman said he would get back to me today. Hopefully they have a Magma and a Nimbus available.

    Is this a leather defect?

    I prefer heavier grain leathers but those spots do look a bit odd.

    Osmium silver

    Its nice they offer both the warm and cool silver. There's a real paradox of choice. The Emira looks good in just about any color.

    NA Market Ordered: Sport or Touring suspension

    I think it will be easier to switch to a more performance oriented shock/spring than switching to a more comfortable one in the future so I think the safer choice is the touring spec. That said my heart is leaning me towards sport with the cup 2s.

    Post your spec!

    I'm torn. I want to put in an order but cant decide. I was told placing an order now sets your spec and you cant really change it so I'm in analysis paralysis mode. My choice is between nimbus/yellow calipers/alcantara with yellow and magma/black calipers/alcantara with red. Both would have...

    Exotic Car Owner's Code of Conduct

    I remember the first time someone let me sit in their Lambo. It was a Balboni Gallardo in yellow with that awesome racing stripe and a manual transmission. He saw me just staring at it and walked over and just opened the door and told me to have a seat. It was awesome. He even had me put...

    USA/Canada Delivery Thread

    For those in a CARB state has anyone purchased in another state and just brought it home from there. Ive bought cars in TX and registered in CA. Its just a VIN check and a smog test to get them on the road. EDIT: For added context they were new cars straight off dealer lots.

    The end is near....And no its not CARB approval

    I think the hierarchy for future resale will end up being V6 manual > i4 > V6 auto. Even if the manuals end up being the most bought Emiras a modern manual is still quite rare and there will always be the not-a-Porsche market to fuel sales. For those looking for an auto they will want the DCT...
