I mean... they made it $12K special in my opinion

Guys... I just watched my Kansas City Chiefs win Back to Back Super Bowls. This has to be a sign that I'm on a personal heater and that cars will pass Feb. 12th the next day...

Our Tesla Model S is our daily. The Emira is a toy because I'm a 40 year old child.

This...

ADM isn't MSRP. The question was is MSRP $119K. The answer to that is no. You can pay any amount in total to acquire a car, doesn't make the acquisition price the MSRP.

But MSRP has a definition. It's literally just the list price from Lotus for the car and it's options. XPEL, Destination, and any other add-on will always be below the MSRP line on your purchase form.

Current MSRP with no added options is $105,400. Black pack adds $1400. Alcantara Steering Wheel another $530. There might be other options, but those I know.

I'll throw my hat in the ring on speculation bingo. I think yours would make sense if they could say $89,999 and try to say it's in the 80s. But I think realistically they will do $95K base, which is still significantly under the FE2.0 pricing, and makes FE1.0 feel like a real deal. Fully loaded...

I hear what you are saying... but the other guy has a woman on a stripper pole as an avatar. It's really hard to know who to trust these days.

Website is dated, but comes highly suggested by the one classic car shop near me that does vintage repairs.

I say this tongue and cheek, but my sales rep when I ordered the car openly told me that based on history it could take years for them to arrive if they ever do. It was the most honest and least reassuring statement I've ever encountered from a sales person.

You have to have a daily. That's really all they hold you to. So far they are the most reasonable on price I've encountered.

You guys got promises?

You should contact @R1272 he was claiming that he and the 4C forums had dealers willing to take less than MSRP on orders. I don't believe it personally, but that was his claim. https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/usa-canada-delivery-thread.2183/post-118288

1) Lower the weight by having the driver go on a diet. 2) Driving schools to make the driver be more capable of using what I've already bought.

Ok. Well $10K on top of the $105K is a different story.

Is it $10K on top of the original $95K or $105K? If it's the 95, I don't mind the dealer reselling at the current rate. Honestly makes sense to protect the value of all the other cars. Also if the person backed out after putting on XPEL, I understand the dealer wanting to recoup it.

I haven't received my free gift yet. I assume it's because they are waiting on me to pay a Market Adjustment on the free gift.

Looks good to me (I’m obviously not impartial)

Yeah, I was talking Hagerty. The funny thing to me is just normal insurance with the same coverage levels is a cheaper option for me, which just seems wildly backwards.

I'm 43. No accidents, no tickets. Live in a suburb of Kansas City and my Hagerty quote is 2.5X that. I truly don't understand the variances in quotes.

He said screaming into the void.

500 is in play...

Finally, someone in here who knows how to conduct themselves.

You think we are tired of the wait. Think of the poor Lotus sales guy who has years of Draw to cover and will only cancel that debt out once these things sell. That guys REALLY can't wait for CARB.

I'm good with pattern recognition. Dude pops on here awhile back to say that because cars are listed on Autotrader that their are tons of cancelled cars, not realizing automated inventory is a far better answer. Then pops on here with a singular unproven comment from a different forum as proof...

The funny thing is, I'm not overly excited about the gift AND YET irrationally angry that mine hasn't arrived.

To be honest, if someone has a deposit on a FE1.0 at $95k they should absolutely take delivery and ask for the $12K price hike when reselling. It's literally the same car and that is the current MSRP price. They earned that value by putting a deposit down years ago.

I'm super curious who this plan is with. Not even collector insurance is down near $1000 a year.

Did Europe have an option on lower black pack?

Someone had posted this before, but if it’s right it’s like a 60/40 split.

Did the fortune cookie come with the Lotus package? "You will receive something you've waited for... soon"

There is no data that currently suggests they will outside of how previous cars were handled. But that being said, none of those cars were known to be the LAST gas-powered car either. And if they do come out with higher output variants, they may not be on a V6 manual and may only be on an i4...

I can very much see the First Edition V6 being the only “named” V6. It took them 3 years to get CARB close to approval is US. They won’t try to up the ante on the V6

Wow. So we will have the FEs in the US being delivered "soon" and then maybe just 2 years of further production. At least in the US that should keep the overall numbers down.

If it's a mug, I'll tell them where they can shove it.

Tool set to remove the 5th cat.

It’s a print out of all the communications they forgot to hit “send” on.

I'm flying to London March 30th to go to Hethel. If it comes available mid-March I may just see if I can get it when I get back.
