My local dealer let me know I'm able to alter my spec as well. I wanted to love Dark Verdant, but with no official photos from Lotus - - and only very limited "real photos" submitted from the general populous - - I am leaning more towards Seneca because a) Lotus have actually put out quality...

My dealer called me and told me my FE would probably be an early Q2 2023 delivery. I'm not super surprised. I lucked my way into a FE allocation anyway, so I am not too upset.

His posts have been very helpful. A smart appointment.

Please keep us in the loop on what their / her response is. I'd be curious to know as well.

What number? I have 0137 and 0918 here stateside.

Yessir. It's a good time for sure.

I've never been in a GTI so I can't compare! It's a fun little hot hatch, that's for sure.

This is my current track car / never ending project. 2006 Mini GP with only 134K miles 🤣 She's got loads of performance modifications done and is a lot of fun.

Thanks for sharing that link so that us Yanks can see the review!

Howdy! Contact Shane Heffernan at Audi Cape Fear in Wilmington. They're opening a Lotus franchise in the fall. That's where I've got my reservation.

Since nobody else has, I figured I'd create a little roll call for North Carolina and South Carolina members. I am (theoretically) taking delivery of my V6 FE 6MT this fall from the currently-under-construction-yet-to-be-opened Lotus Cape Fear. I enjoy participating in track days when my...

I would still love to see it in actual sunlight.

OK, those outdoor photos are awesome. Indoor, not so much. I still would like to see one in true sunlight. The outside photo is still in a tent with spotlights aimed at it.

What's the reason for turning heel?

James, you had the opportunity to get Dark Verdant in the sunshine and you left us hanging!? 🤣 That's still the most mysterious color (and with the least media exposure) so far as I can tell. Did you have any thoughts on it?

Evo is conspicuously absent. 🤣

The need to condescend apparently outweighs posting something of substance.

I'm honestly kind of shocked by how many people here are so turned off by these journalists' critical reviews....like, to the point of wanting to cancel your reservations. All sourced from a couple of YouTube videos. Seriously?! None of us have driven the car. I'd prefer to make my own...

I'm honestly kind of shocked by how many people are so turned off by these journalists' reviews. None of us have driven the car. I'd prefer to make my own judgement after driving the car as opposed to relying on something said by some person I don't know. Correct me if I'm wrong here, but none...

I guess there are a lot of masochists (like myself) who can't resist being strung along for photos. 😂

You ask for far too much, sir! 🤣

I think the most reasonable way to get a true photo without filters or doctoring at this point is to hire Tom Cruise to break into the factory Mission-Impossible-style.

I saw this posted on a Facebook group claiming it was DV.... If that is true, I'm regretting my decision. 😬 That is not a flattering depiction.

I actually LOL'd at that.

Super cool. Thanks for sharing.

What is LOG? It's In West Virginia?

To throw another perspective on it... Remember this one (in the states)? Pork: The Other White Meat I don't see "other" as a negative framing. In this use, I see it as drawing attention that "Hey, you've tried [INSERT BRAND HERE] . Why not try the dark horse?" Just my 2 cents. I also think...

Super cool transformation! Always love a cool garage.

Do you have some more?! Full body would be awesome!

My final spec: Dark Verdant, Tan Interior, Full Black Pack, Black Wheels, Yellow Calipers. V6 6MT Not sure anyone knows what DV is actually going to look like though. 😅

Okay, for your next trick - - do one in Dark Verdant! 😂

If that is the case, I will be over the moon. I love that. Thank you!!

This thread has been a roller coaster ride. It's dark Verdant! It's been altered! Its shadow gray! I don't know what to think - - and I cannot fathom how Lotus can not just release a real photo and put the debate to bed. FWIW, I have an order in for DV. I just hope it actually looks somewhat...

Hello from Wilmington!

Hello all, Glad to have found this forum, it's been a wealth of information. A not-so-brief introduction: I owned a black 2006 Exige with a Katana supercharger some 5 or so years ago (that I barely fit in!). I bought it locally for a great deal because it needed some work. Lotus are very...
