Yea, no offense to him but he is not a "made man." I am sticking with kitkat for now. Going on 3 years you can't just walk up and cut line.

Has anyone purchased an outdoor cover for the car that they like or know where we can get then? Covercraft doesn't seem to have the pattern yet.

How do we know carb is approved?!?

Oh, okay. I am not going back 14 pages! Just more speculation so no need to break out the box of Girl Scout Cookies yet to celebrate. I checked the carb site and saw nada.

What's happening? I am behind, is CARB approved???

I posted the link for heavy trucks for CARB certification a while back, no Idea if its the same as light duty cars. It showed four "bureaucratic" steps that must happen before an approval. 1. Preliminary Staff Review, Full Staff Review, Peer & Management Review, Final Decision. Each of those...

I didn't think any left hand drive Autos had made it to the US, but this is an Automatic. Did anyone notice that?

Oh it's a hot hatch alright! This Corolla has our Emira Toyota Camry V6! Lol

How about a: Toyota Avalon, Highlander, Lexus ES350, Rav4, Sienna, Corolla, and about a dozen more. The engine is everywhere!

I am fairly confident things are about to break. It's one thing to shoot a few hundred cars across the Atlantic in hopes of CARB approval, it's a whole other ballgame to keep producing and shipping cars. Surely Lotus has gotten updated since the first big shipment, if things were not going as...

This will be my first car that I assume will get constant attention. When I went to the Eletre reveal this weekend the Emiras were among Lambos, Astons, Ferraris, McLaren's, Shelbys, Koenigseggs. The first thing that popped into my mind while staring at @DaaS spec (lol) was that people aren't...

What car did you drop him off in? Lol

I came from the perspective that Supercar was not coined in a car enthusiast forum/environment and it's a term that was derived from the general population on playgrounds, driving on the interstate, watching movies, etc. EDIT: Magnum PI, Miami Vice, etc.

I just saw DV in person this past weekend. On these dark colored cars with the black pack the Lotus wording on the back is black as we all know. I was just thinking that people will have absolutely no idea what the car is.

I strongly consider it a Supercar. The majority of people, myself included, never get to experience or drive exotic, rare, sports cars. I lump all that into Supercar. Thing is, since the majority of people don't get to experience them, a Supercar is not about performance, it's about heart...

Quick, look behind you!!! It's just a diversion. I had to get out of the North America / Canada Thread for a minute. This is by for the best forum to talk cars and I knew I would get pages of cars I have never heard of so I will be going through the thread Googling these cars. But you are...

I clarified my post. The point is to use the car the same as you will use your Emira. Update your selection!

Sorry, I will edit my post to make it clear. What would you choose instead of the Emira, money is no object. You must drive it in the same way and can't flip it.

The USA/Canada Delivery Thread is getting a lot of work! I am hoping to divert people's attention for a bit! If you could have any car, what would you get? HOWEVER, You can't flip the car, you MUST drive it, use it, park it in the same way you plan to use the Emira (DD, track, etc). And yes...

Did you test drive the Emira? If so give a quick comparison between the two. Correct me if I am wrong, I think the Supra is known having surprise performance based on its price. Will you be tinting the windows?

What is the best drive you have had in it so far???

It looks like they may have stopped in 2020. Scroll to the bottom of the article. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrari_F154_engine

The MC20 is the Ferrari F154 engine.

So I got to see the Eletre R in green. Great looking car but don't really want to dive to much into that. I am not that much into SUVs and EV SUVs to boot. The star of the show IMO was a Seneca, Black Pack, Black Gloss Rims, Yellow Caliper, Ice Grey Interior spec which looked absolutely...

Absolutely. That new MR2 is incredible. I am monitoring all "lightweight" EV sportscars and the MR2 is at the top of the list.

Listening to you describe this makes me think about my first track experience. You make a good point, if you go EV get ultra light. It probably drives just like these track cars. Instant! I would like to drive your Mini.

I would recommend mapping a route that takes you through the Devil's Whip on your way to the Dragon.

The Dragon is close to me and I go about twice a year. I usually show up during the week right at day break, run it about a 1/2 dozen times and then leave. No traffic. I have never ran it during prime time. My Emira will be there in 2024 for sure. It's a pure momentum car road staying in...

I just got word my DV Ice Grey is in Baltimore! Going to see the Eletre this weekend.

I second this^^. But also I like to problem solve in logical, cost effective steps. When the cups wear out replace with the bespoke Goodyears and then make another assessment. If it's still to bouncy/harsh, proceed to the next step. In short be careful about making too many changes at one time.

As I have stated before, the Auto in the Evora (assume it's the same as Emira) is excellent if you are a regular driver like me. IMO for a weekend car I am 50/50 manual or auto. Driving mountain roads I like the sense of just keeping my hands on the wheel and shifting. My daily is a manual...

I am literally watching every Emira youtube video on repeat dating back to the summer of 2021. I am so excited about my ICE GREY interior. I haven't had an update from my dealer since December when he said plan for March or April. I forgot the individuals post on here but he talked about all...

It worked for Ford and it is the reason they have V8 Mustangs. The following is an excerpt from the article I linked below. "Mr Farley {Ford CEO} says the success of the Mustang Mach-E – the electric SUV which bears the same name as its two-door sibling – and the F-150 Lightning has allowed...

I wanted to believe him.

At the end of the day the best cars are not the fastest, lightest, most powerful, etc, they are the cars that are the most fun to drive for you. I test drove the Emira twice on the same curvy road so I got a really good feel for the car in those turns. I took the Dark Horse there today. And...
