My order form was slightly confusing as I had to select 'Yes' or 'No' for 'Privacy Glass Delete'. I didn't want privacy glass so I selected 'Yes' for this option which is counterintuitive.

Sweet!! I will try and make a trip up there this afternoon

I've been bugging Daniel to text me if he gets a Seneca Blue of Magma in as I really want to see those colors in person

Ha! I love the houses in Aero Plantation but the runway is too short and wonky for the planes I fly. I keep a plane hangared at the Monroe Executive Airport which is only a 15 minute drive away from the house. Planes and cars are my hobbies! I should have picked less expensive things.

That's amazing!! Have you scheduled your 'visit' to go see your car? Congrats man. We definitely need to get together once mine arrives. We probably live 10 minutes apart. I'm off of Antioch Church Rd. in Weddington.

2.0 Cape Fear (I got lucky!)

I have a VIN and my Emira is still on the water, as far as I know (boat #3 arriving).

Nice!! I assume this is ship #2. My Emira is on ship #3, so getting closer!

Charlotte Lotus has only received one Emira in Dark Verdant so far. Surprising based on what other dealerships have received.

Absolutely love Nimbus! Can't wait for mine to arrive.

There sure are a lot of DV’s being delivered

I'm a Nimbus as well and that's the only color I haven't seen with these US dealer delivery pictures

I was just texting Daniel today - I really want to see both Magma Red and Seneca Blue in person!

I'm also in Weddington and just texted with the sales manager at Lotus of Charlotte. His cars haven't shown up yet but I expect it will be any day now.

Do we know when boats #2 and #3 are arriving? I guess we're also still waiting for the first dealer photo of a customer car in the showroom. Should be any day now.

Do you know where you are in allocation line? I had a deposit with Lotus of Charlotte in July 2022 and was #51. I then switched my deposit to Lotus Cape Fear in December 2022 and was around #4 or 5 in line after the FE 1.0's.

This is confirmed!! I'll post a picture of my car once it arrives at the dealership hopefully over the next few weeks!

I just received word that my FE 2.0 is 'on the boat' heading our way. I was also provided a VIN. I'm in Charlotte (Matthews) however I purchased the car at Lotus of Cape Fear (Wilmington). I'm a Nimbus Grey, black pack, with diamond cut wheels and tan interior. Hope to see you guys around...

I'm also in Charlotte (Matthews) but moved my deposit to Cape Fear for this very reason (I could get my car sooner). We should get together once you have your car. Would love to meet other local Emira owners.

I'm a Nimbus and I finalized by build in mid-August of this year. My dealer did tell me that he still has some outstanding FE 1.0's that he hasn't received yet, so they are indeed building some 2.0's ahead of 1.0's it seems. I was told several months ago I was a December build with expected...

I just received a call that my FE 2.0 (early 2.0 deposit) is on the Atlantic Ocean!! I'm with Cape Fear Lotus (Wilmington, NC). Hopefully I'll be able to 'visit' her in the showroom soon. Amazing news!!

K_Squared is a FE 1.0 at that same dealership that I have my deposit with. I I am also an early FE 2.0 (Cape Fear) and was told December production with March delivery. Hopefully this is still accurate.

Daniel is great to deal with. I originally had a deposit with Lotus Charlotte from June 2022 but I was around 50th in line. I ended up switching my deposit to Lotus Cape Fear (Wilmington) at the end of 2022 as I was able to jump the line as they had a much shorter list. I should be receiving...

I unfortunately didn’t make the cut at Cape Fear for the initial shipment of cars ‘on the water’ currently. I’m in the first few FE 2.0 allocations at the store with scheduled production in December. Enjoy visiting your car when it arrives!! Exciting times!

Some Milltek goodies arrived today

In celebration, I just placed my order for the Milltek active valve controller and 3rd cat delete bypass pipe today.

Is is too loud or does it drone? I don't mind aggressive, especially if it's only when you really get on it at mid-to-high rpms, but I don't want too/obnoxiously loud and definitely don't want any droning. Sounds like you are happy with it, but wanted to clarify.

I am going to buy that valve controller as well. I know a lot of people are looking to delete the 3rd cat. On the Milltek UK site, they have a GPF/OPF bypass pipe for the Emira. I'm not sure if this bypass pipe eliminates the 3rd cat or exactly what it accomplishes. I have been in contact...

Amazing news!! I was hoping for this report all morning!! Now we get to focus our angst on the emissions approval.

I'm really excited to hear how your visit goes. I know the previous person who visited 3 weeks ago wasn't able to get confirmation from the reps there, and maybe it will be the same for you. However if they truly have started production now, maybe they will be more open with you. Obviously...

I had no idea they cancelled their order. Weren't they going to lose out on 10k if they cancelled?

I've also had really nice cars before (not quite to the Emira standard), and I do 'worry' about them when parking them publicly etc. It has detracted from the enjoyment of the car as you're always worried about it. I'm going to try to change that with the Emira as I plan to daily it and I...

I created a similar thread several months ago with a lot of responses to this question. https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/emira-front-ground-clearance.2932/

I was at a car meet recently and noticed a Montana plate (here in NC). The car owner went over the Montana LLC registration 'technique'. I've subsequently looked into this a little bit but I was curious what others think about this (pros/cons)? I know there are some insurance companies that...

Good insight, thanks. I think I'm going to stick with Nimbus at this time. I really liked it when I saw it in person, and I like the slight bronze hue in some lights - very unique. I'm sure Seneca will look amazing as well when I see one on the road.
