TLDR

Forgot to mention "China focused role".

I have not. I'm talking looks, brand and what Lexus means to me. But it may well be a fine performance car.

But let's face it, Lexus is kind of boring Mom/Dad car.

Congrats! Thought it was going to be HY because of your shirt and shoes!

For us less technically versed, are autos more emitting in nature?

Not for drifting. But fun an d inexpensive. I had a tuned R56 and it was a blast.

No way. Mini, Mx5 or equivalent.

Blue with a hint of purple?

Cash buyer here. I feel these are toys and my personal view is these should not eat into your credit capacity. I don't know many people that will do much better on their personal investments than current borrowing rates. And it's not like the quantum is large, say you get a spread of 200bps, on...

Great commentary, thoughtful and measured, and so enjoyable to watch. His style is so much more easy to watch than the Schmeeeeees of the world.

This is great, it's really good to see them all lined up and helps with the color and black pack decisions. Magma suddenly looking amazing and HY may benefit from upper black pack in my opinion.

Can't fix the body shape, that's not covered under warranty 😉

You can't just hit the gym once and pretend you are stronger. You need to be consistent, increase loads progressively. Stay at it and you'll see that the issue is gone. 🏋️

Did you hit the gym the prior evening? 😀

I don't disagree, other than Geely having invested billions and billions. I do feel my comment holds true for the ICE Emira ownership. ICE are dead, ICE customer experience is lacking and ICE is non core. And I'm totally fine with that and my expectations are very low so I don't get frustrated...

Thanks. I meant as an addition to the Emira and for serious abuse. 20kmiles a year. I do a lot of highway, and GT sounds good. I agree that 911s are more along the GT vein nowadays. 718s feel a bit small inside for me. I'm sold on the Emira but that will be for weekends.

What about a 992 T for daily and long commute purposes? I will not baby it. Any thoughts? It would replace an F80.

For those who have the car AND the lotus diecast model, how close is the paint of the diecast model to real life?

Lol has gotten worse and worse indeed

Jalopnik used to be much better. Now it's mostly click bait.

I'm still perplexed by this. Especially those that call LCC...

Also, how will lotus launch the S and R versions if the base one has to be detuned?

I've said it before. Lotus is and will always be small, borderline bankrupt or a non core business for its owners. Like it or not, customer service is unlikely to change meaningfully and will never be comparable to some other manufacturers. If you like Lotus products and can live with the...

Why would she be on the phone with Lotus customer service?

Nice. You added the yellow pinstripe?

Seems they just want us legacy customers to pay extra for the proper orange and green colors. Shame. Especially that zinc gray, very mediocre choice.

Do they sell covers? Would come in handy to avoid scratches and accidentally pressing buttons.

Precisely, get an F87, E46, E92…all within that budget. Just don’t support BMW horrible design!

Still looks horrible/tacky, it's a pig, zero exclusivity, weak color palette...

Better depiction of the color

Saw an Emira for the first time, in Dubai of all places since I missed the tour in California. Pics really don't do it justice, looks wider and has a more aggressive stance in person. Beautiful color, but hard to assess given the artificial light. I stopped by the Ferrari dealer next door. 296...
