For the love of God why isnt this video longer??!! They should have slowly walked around that car w the doors shut. Ive been dying to see better pics/video of Nimbus/BP/Black wheels (Vs Nimbus/Diamond Cut/No BP) Thats my Sophie's Choice at the moment

While Lotus fiddles and time goes by other appealing options could start hitting the market. While this seems a bit underpowered at forst glance it does catch the eye. Come on Lotus - would be a shame if the Emira's heyday came and went before our very eyes without even a test drive...

Try working w a dealer who still wont give you a straight answer about markup over MSRP. Try adding that to your cocktail of misfortune...

Does look a little sloppy

Ill take it - where are you located!

Interesting color i saw on an Aston today. (Not saying I LIKE it...) Also 'bronzy'? Almost light olive.

One silver lining about having to wait for me is getting more smart-tech (particularly parking sensors). But id still grab an FE if a spot became available

Tick-Tock Lotus...

Did they tell you what # you were at Galpin?

Wondering when/where we'll see something in the flesh stateside.

Would love to compare notes w fellow prospective West Coast Emira owners. Who expects to see the first Emira? Im an Oct deposit so probably a year out

Me too in the $90ks - my fear is a 2023 Base V6 spec'd close FE - given inflation pressures and demand for Emira could push me over $120K (almost THREE golf Rs) It' would be hard for me to spend that kind of money on something slower than an ancient Evora

Dec Car&Driver shows 0-60 3.9 sec for 2022 Golf R. Maybe 'smoke' is too strong but still...

A VW Golf R will smoke the Emira off the line for under $40K. A Z06 will go 0-60 in an astounding 2.5sec for around $100K. I loved the idea of a $93K FE when i put down a deposit in October. But if my config comes in closer to $120K for a car whose acceleration I have to apologize for w a low...

Just got this (US) I seriously DOUBT i'll be given the opportunity to place my non-FE spec anytime soon...

Are you in US?

Happy to see they are offfering an 'off-road' package...

Would so love.to see Nimbus and Silver side by side. Im now considering Nimbus to be more of a pewter. Still not 100% sure on it. Looks promising but will have to see in person. (Anyone else sick of that Coldplay.song now...)

Id lock in today if it looks like that

Id rest easier if Nimbus car in factory photo had front logo emblem affixed. Could be still waiting on rubber seal as well (sorry)

How does Magma compare to Tesla red? (Which also looks VERY different depending on lighting)

If all that weve seen on video thus far is accurate i cant imagine anything in a new review that woukd dissuade me. Id gladly buy 'sight unseen' at this point. I love the styling and trust the rest will meet/exceed. Manual, hydraulic sterring, sound, it's a Lotus - How bad could they possibly...

Wouldn't it be nice if enough people were turned off by review to push me up to FE Lotus-Land!

I would say yellow if they didnt clash w the yellow in the centercaps. Can't get past that for a car this expensive. I'd go red. Or if you go yellow switch to black centercaps

Black Pack' Ferrari in Vegas. Emira has such a better profile IMO

I'll take your winter delivery! #forTheCalifornians

Do you think flower-DC wheels could work with Nimbus? (I just cant warm up to black wheels)

I bet it drives like a dream but to my eye they missed the mark on styling. Wish it was more 240Z and less 300Z. Something off to me.

Have you ever had an issue with it being too hot to grab when it's been parked in the summer sun?

It's just dawning on me that the shift knob is metal. As i ponder this on a hot day in sunny California it occurs to me that hopping in and reaching for that in the summer will be like grabbing a handful of molten lava. Does Lotus use this shifter in any of there other cars? Can anyone speak...

I agree. I think Lotus totally missed the mark not getting creative w the interior. Black alcantara w a trace of yellow stitching you can see if you squint? Way too monotone and dark for most (even Harry was surprised in his video) Could have gotten much more aggressive/creative w larger...
