    Final spec changes after dealer visit

    I agree, the yellow looks amazing… I will likely go non black pack, as I am not sure about the 3/4 view, and even though I love the evora, the black pack gives an evora look where the colour meets the black near the first edition badge. I will get the lettering and exhaust done in black by the...

    Magma Red with Red interior

    That's interesting - I am going with yellow and likely altantara with yellow contrast - I have that in my exige, and it looks great

    Alternate configurator renders of the other 4 FE colors

    Both - promise you - you will only see a difference close up with the yellow. My exige is saffron (very close to Hethel) - my friend has metallic on his s1 - you only see difference close up - in photos, you can't spot it..

    Surely alcantara is a no brainer?

    I have Alcantara in my exige, after 15 years, its still in good condition, and I like the mix of textures that @TomE mentions. I have yellow contrast stitching in the Exige on the seats, and its looks great - so that was no brainer for me (plus it will be a weekend car)

    Update of colour choice poll (plus black pack), post Harrys Garage / Roadshow and better photos.

    Just some perspective... the car in the foreground is 'flat'. background is metallic - you really don't see the metallic unless you look closely - no one has ever said to me that its a shame my car isn't metallic :)

    Anyone got Assetto Corsa racing sim game?

    think its the v6 as it only has 6 gears and changes are slow (ish) and actually says v6 later in the clip

    Hethel Yellow Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    Look at the rear 3/4 view with black pack - looks a little odd to my eyes, hence going with yellow roof

    The great black roof dilemma...

    I like the black pack, but with the black hatch, the rear 3/4 looks odd in the brighter colours... hence me going for coloured roof

    Anything mentioned regarding Launch Control ?

    Tom - is that even with the touring suspension ? And do we know what 'track mode' means ? :)

    First viewing at Bell & Covill

    Fully agree Tom - I have even heard that Scott has given 2 different answers on when the i4 FE will come - that's not the Scott I know, so I wonder if there is something lost in translation... I asked Lotus directly btw - and they said q4 2022 still for the i4 FE

    First viewing at Bell & Covill

    Lotus really do need to get their shit together..... the configurator right now has the lower black pack as std which includes the black tail pipe finishers. Different people at the event said different things on those type of details - but to buyers of a car like this - the detail is key. I...

    V6 manual or I4 DCT?

    mixed messages tbh - a Lotus person told me late autumn for the first i4 cars

    Which alloy wheels will you choose?

    exactly this.....

    Black Pack?

    I think the rear 3/4 view looks a little odd with the black pack (especially with Yellow) - the black hatch adds enough contrast for me...

    What are you driving until the Emira arrives?

    Ha ! Actually, I plan to not to have the black pack, as the 3/4 view looks better if the roof is yellow..

    Another long term Lotus Owner..

    Hi all - I have a 2004 Exige S2 that I bought in 2005 and have had ever since. It started life as a 190 NA in touring spec, it now has 295hp and may have some carbon inside an out ! Emira is first new car that has tempted me to think about moving on... I am worried it might be too big for the...

    What engine will you go with Toyota V6 or AMG 4? [poll]

    Answers to both recent questions are in the cafection video, Gav Kershaw confirms its the M139, and the engine cover on the i4 is for thermal management.. I was also told at Goodwood that although it will be tuned for 360hp (this is as its a world car and has to run on various different fuel...
