    My car is scheduled to go into Eurowise to have Phil install my 3rd cat delete pipe and the electronic exhaust valve controller this upcoming week. Looking forward to the improvement in sound. I don't think this should impact break-in assuming I follow the other rules.

    Keeping the car in Tour mode for the 1000 mile break-in

    I'm just curious how many people have stuck to the recommendation of keeping the car in Tour mode for the first 1000 mile engine break-in? I certainly plan to follow the other recommendations for break-in but I'm struggling whether I will adhere to the Tour mode. I'm just curious if others...

    Yep I flew in to make an event out of the purchase! I thought about bringing the checklist but worried what they would think when I pulled it out! Agree on Brian - I declined all additional services as well (I always feel guilty), but he didn't push at all and said it was good practice to go...

    I am heading to Cape Fear Lotus later this afternoon to sign the papers and pay for the car. I'm then having it picked up by a transport company tomorrow for a Saturday delivery in Charlotte, NC. I may take my car for a quick test drive tonight after the purchase.

    Looks amazing! Almost my exact same spec. Is the car PPF'd and/or ceramic coated or is that factory paint?

    My car is in Wilmington, but I was at Charlotte Lotus this past weekend to bide the time and all of the rotors were pretty rusted on all cars, hopefully some heat and high speed braking would take care of it. Wilmington also stored most of its cars outside as well and I pick up Friday. We’ll see

    Looks amazing! Super jealous! I think that was the only Magma Red that Charlotte had. Enjoy!

    Given my spec is very similar to yours, would you mind posting a picture of the car with tint? I'm debating on tint and would love to see it with the Nimbus. Thanks!

    Although the 1000 miles are going to drag on, I’ll still be happy I’m finally driving the car. Enjoy the delivery tomorrow!

    Purchasing and signing the papers at Lotus Cape Fear on Thursday afternoon, however I am having the car shipped to Charlotte so there will be a slight delay in me officially taking possession. May still take my car for a spin around Wilmington after signing the papers on Thursday. Super pumped!

    My dealer (Lotus Cape Fear) confirmed the CARB document is legit but Lotus hasn’t received their official certificate. They hope that will happen over the next day or two. He’s scheduling delivery appts for later this week (hopefully).

    Blendmount for Emira

    Here is Colin's response: Hi Russell, We are still trying to figure out the correct mount for that vehicle. I suggest having us cancel the order until we can confirm what would be the correct mount. Up to you. You mentioned you saw a post of someone who has the mount. I'm not sure if it's...

    Blendmount for Emira

    I just placed an order for the Blendmount last night unfortunately. I've reached out to Colin with the picture of the rearview mirror and also your picture to see what he suggests. Maybe there is an easy modification to the mount to extend it further downward?

    My Nimbus showed up yesterday and my dealer was able to forward along some pictures. Only disappointment was they put on an alcantara steering wheel when I ordered leather. My dealer double-checked and a leather wheel was submitted for the order and accepted. He said he will reach out to the...

    ~30 HP more power and a tad more nimbleness?

    I have been looking at the JUBU 435 tune/kit as well, but $6k is a little steep to get there. I'm coming from the BMW world where you could buy a software tuning license for $600 and do everything pretty easily yourself. I'm hoping another option stateside might become available. I'm not...

    I suspect our cars are going to arrive at Lotus Cape Fear on the same truck. I'm also expecting mine any day now! Still deciding on whether I"m going to use a shop local to the dealer for PPF and ceramic prior to driving 3.5 hours home, versus using local high quality shops who I've used in...
