The context from other post with Naples cars and the reaction to your post was angry face emoji. It wasn’t accusing anything or attacking you just wanted to set the record straight that this car is a demo.

This is their demo car not a customer car.

Obviously this is not scientific at all but no CARB EOs are posted yet for 2024. I did look back at 2023 and the first batch shows a date of 1/18/23. Hopefully we get a mid-month approval.

Yes Lotus of Atlanta. They only had two Emiras on the showroom floor and none that I saw outside. One was their Verdant demo car and my Hethel Yellow. I know that they have others that they are storing at a sister store offsite.

Had a visit with my FE2.0 last night at the dealer. Sticker was applied on mine as well. Has to be getting close. Order was correct and can't wait to take delivery.

I don't believe this changed.

I would jump in on the 2nd group for Herringbone, gloss.

This is something I've been noodling. We've been waiting for so long and timeframes promised slipped so often. Why would we believe that the CARB process is going to be as promised by Lotus? In the meantime, my Supersprint Race exhaust and 3rd cat delete are sitting in the garage waiting for...

Lotus gonna Lotus....or maybe something really bad...

Understood, my point is that cars, even high end special ordered cars sit outside. Now in this case maybe not as long, since these cars are here, but we cannot buy them because Lotus forgot about emissions certification. The bigger thing to protect your cars when taking delivery in my opinion...

Storing cars, even high end cars outside is normal. Lotus is in between a normal car and "high end" anyways. Go over to a Porsche dealer and you will see 911 Turbo S outside. The lotus dealer in town here is also Lambo, Rolls, McLaren, etc and they have all those cars outside as well. I don't...

Yes, I have a 981 Spyder and the insurance is about 1/2 what they quoted on the Lotus. Oh well, hopefully we get the cars soon so we can move beyond quotes. I expect my car to be at dealer any day now so I can have a visit.

Who has called their insurance to get a quote on the the Emira yet? I called my fun car insurer this am and was SHOCKED at how much they quoted me.

I hope it is earlier than late Feb. My car is on way to dealer after arriving at port on 12/10. I'd assume that they are going to start calling people in as soon as the approvals are in place which should be late January. Maybe one thing will be a little earlier in this whole process and get...

Asking mainly for the actual vins that arrived. I couldn't wait so I paid for the BOL and mine 10878 was on Atantic Sea and is in Baltimore. Maybe this car actually exists!

Do we have the VINs on the cars that have arrived at port?

August I submitted the order officially. Depositor since 2021. I missed the 1.0 cutoff by one order.

I have a FE2.0 that is at port.

Got call today that my Emira is on boat and got a VIN. I’m not sure I really believe it.

Train coming head on I'm sure.

On the way to ships.....soon.

I had hope thinking that the first cars hit the US last week, but after reading the forum seems like that might not be the case. Crazy that I have now had my bridge car for over two years! I thought I would own the Boxster Spyder for about 5 months!

We could only hope.

Exactly, have to try Hagerty or Grundy. Especially if you have two cars to put on a collector policy the premiums are really low, the only catch is a limit on commuting days and you must have a daily driver with another insurer. I am paying $4k for a year with 5 cars at Hagerty.

Just received call from my dealer and looks like FE2.0 allocations are out. I made the cut so he was asking for my order to lock in by end of the month. Would be expected to be here in "March" but not holding my breath.

About right in line with what I thought, especially if that includes destination charges. While there was hope that it might be mid 80k, a base Evora costs 3k more than a FE Emira, so the FE V6 at $94k is still cheaper. Most Evoras are around $105k+

I for one am very excited about this. The pricing looks to be a very good price and specs are impressive. Cannot wait to get this car in my garage!

I think they are targeting the S and GTS with the Emira not the base or T. Also, one must always take Porsche base prices with a grain of salt as every little thing is an option and even a lightly optioned car is 10-20k over base price. My bet will be on starting at $85k.

This is what I am heavily leaning toward myself. What calipers and interior?

The way the headlights and the front all fit together. To me looked a bit generic and didn't match the side profile or rear view. The Emira fixes that with an incredible front end look. I still looked for a good deal on the Evora many times!

Hello All: Put a deposit down on the Emira. Looking forward to speccing the car and driving it when it comes in! Currently drive an E63 Wagon (will keep) and also have a 2003 Lexus LX 470 (offroad camping truck) Have owed many cars and used to be a big BMW fan. Wanted to love the Evora but...

Deposit down a few days ago. Trying to absorb any new tid bits on options by watching every single video out there. Am leaning toward yellow, green or maybe the red. Looking forward to a car coming to sit in and play with around November before the official orders start. (per dealer)...
