    The Gator thread

    I understand the frustration but I’d say Gator and their employees have been a pleasure to work with. They are doing the best they can given the situation. When it comes to taking some well earned vacation, We all need time to decompress no matter the circumstances. I’d encourage everyone to...

    OBD II reader/scanner recommendations

    Great question...Unfortunately the answer (as best I can determine after extensive search) is Lotus OBDII readers are proprietary and only the dealers have the ability to conduct full scans and diagnosis. However The next best thing is the OBD Link product. Since a lot of Lotus' info is...

    I wish people would verify information such as the "fictitious" 150 mile limit before stating as fact. Better to pass along no information than bad information. Thanks for clearing that up

    Lets face it, NOBODY INCLUDING LOTUS knows what the heck they are going to do. They haven't met one single production goal or proposed timetable since announcing. Lotus doesn't even try to communicate to its customers...Never mind its dealers. Examples include, the CARB debacle that was...

    Appreciate the note and understood...Last week I called Lotus Customer Service to get an update b/c I know you guys are busy and didn't want to fill up Tony's inbox. Lotus USA weren't much help. Transferred my inquiry back to Gator and I got an email from Young saying..."We don't know when...

    CARB is behind us...But What Actually Happened?

    Not to mention how P.O.'ed the dealers must be.

    CARB is behind us...But What Actually Happened?

    A non event is difficult or impossible to measure. how many potential SUV and sedan customers will now bypass lotus as a viable option b/c of the way this played out? No one knows, but I'd bet its alot more than zero

    CARB is behind us...But What Actually Happened?

    Glad the wait for CARB approval is over but I'd like to know what ACTUALLY happened and why this was an issue in the first place? Is Lotus to blame, is the CA Air Resource Board (CARB) to blame...or is it some combination of the two? TMK, no one from Lotus UK or USA has offered any reasonable...

    USB port near rear view mirror is intermittent

    So stupid to put a USB power cord in the mirror and not provide it with enough juice to power a radar detector. WTH?

    That might or might not be true...But ask yourself this question. Has the community complained about these sorts of abusive greed enduced business tactics from other dealers? Answer...Nope not really. Just Dallas

    USA/Canada Delivery Thread

    I agree...All businesses are entitled to earn a fair margin. But what Dallas Lotus is reportely doing is NOT that. Their reported behavior is beyond obsurd. Screwing customers over with thousands of dollars worth of last minute add ons is unscrupulous. In essence they are holding a product...
