I just added my info to the list.

I'm not slapped in the face. I'm pumped they arent killing it anymore. The V8 is still years out, maybe even a decade knowing Lotus. Ill have a manual in the mean time and if it comes out Ill find a way to buy it. Hopefully in aubergine.

Rising this thread to add a data point. I got a full Stek wrap from Xsiv in Newbury Park. They quoted $6500 for paint correction and all paint ppf. I also added llumar IRX on the doors and windshield as well as the Stek windshield wrap on the windshield and headlights. Total for everything...

Is the seat pass through wide enough where they arent rubbing into your neck?

Anyone get the red leather version? Is it close to the red leather in the Emira? It doesnt look as bright in the photos.

So will the next meetup be this Sunday the 27th?

Well this wasnt today but I picked up my car from tint and ppf on Saturday. Its a full wrap of stek dynoshield plus stek windshield. Its also tinted with 15% llumar irx on the doors to match factory privacy and 50% on the windshield. Time to get some miles.

Looks like I'm not picking up my car till tomorrow so I'm out on this weekends festivities.

I would have loved to wait for aubergine but who knows if it will be around before they have to dump the v6.

4500 is in line with what they want for the other special green and bronze options. The orange i was told was going to be like 7k

For those wondering about Grundy here is the acknowledgement wording which basically sums up the limitations of the policy: "In consideration of the premium charged, it is hereby understood and agreed that any vehicle insured under this policy will be used for hobby purposes and exhibition and...

So with the replacement ECUs, if you use it and swap back to stock for a service can the dealer tell?

Yeah Lotus has used 3 greens that are similar from my limited research. They had isotope, krypton, and verde. It seems they vary in metallic but in general isotope is the yellowest green and verde is the greenest green if that makes sense. Isotope and krypton are very similar Here's a pic I...

That positive side plastic piece is a pita. Its just there to stop things from accidentally contacting the terminal. If nothing is in your trunk then you should be good without the plastic or the cover. I would suggest just doing the permanent connection though and routing the cable outside...

Im tempted to go because I pick up my car from ppf on Friday so it will look as good as it ever will but on short notice Im not sure if I can peel off from my usual saturday stuff with the family.

From the Lotus release "Pursuant to the agreement, the Company will issue new shares valued at $10 per share in consideration of Geely and Etika’s transfer of Lotus UK shares. Lotus UK is valued at 1.15 multiples revenue plus cash minus debt of LGIL, based on LGIL’s audited consolidated annual...

Did anyone else get the invite for Galpin this Saturday. Seems they are doing a British C&C.

Its cool that it will no longer be Chinese owned but I think that means the financials are worse than expected and likely given the current portfolio they are still tied to Chinese manufacturing for the EV range. Its going to be rough for awhile.

Breakfast club is a Friday meetup is it not? I mean I'm down for just going to Newcomb on Sunday too if that's the plan.

chapman gets a chapman edition side badge were the FE or base badge goes. it also gets a 1 of 60 dash badge

Dodge already has claim to that. I'm not sure how old Isotope is but I know it was an Elise color back in the day. Not sure if they used it before then.

So the Chapman treatment is just the paint and badges?

Any shots of the interior. Did they use isotope stitching?

Friday morning would be tough so I voted Malibu although I work some Saturdays as well.

i got a quote for 1200 a year from Grundy.. Theres restrictions on where i can drive it but its to places i dont want to take it anyways and theres no mileage restrictions

I'm pretty sure the MSRP is in the 2.5M range which is a lot seeing as how you can pick up a 918/P1 for that right now which already has collector status.

Great color palate on that run, minus the white and black behind you in the mirror shot. Hopefully I can make the next one.

Admittedly I haven't driven mine much but the only quirks I have encountered are the alcantara needing a trim on the passenger a pillar and when I first rolled down the drivers window it rolled right back up on its own. Its never happened again so I think it may have been its calibration run...

my car is currently at the shop for paint correction ppf and tint. i wont have it back till late next week

Hmmm. Pranking Emira owners with fart sound injectors. Sounds fun.

Can you confirm if it was a different color than the 3 special colors already orderable?

I use it to initiate voice calls and navigation.

I can change the language but I would like to change my assistant voice to female if possible. Is there an option somewhere?

We're gonna need to organize some cruise nights so we all get through our break in and can start having some fun.

Rarity is only cool when the car is no longer meant to be driven. We dont want rarity for this car. We want lots of parts availability and owners right now.

the US configurator was like that for awhile but they fixed it to allow both. Although in the US the drivers pack is standard and you are just picking suspension

i made the mistake of leaving the dealer before figuring the radio out and it was stuck on npr for 20 min till i found the tuning tab.

Lotus simply made too many for the UK.
