Got a cut to size trunk mat. Also had found a 'tote' size from Lowes that fits pretty well to put stuff in that could possibly spill. It still allows for bags to go in the corners and can easily remove. Doesnt really slide around either. Used the existing trunk floor carpet piece as a template...

This. I take pics of my parts receipts with date and mileage on odometer, one of new oil filter in housing, one of the oil plug out of the vehicle as well. Then link those photos to my spreadsheet that denotes date and service done. It is illegal for them to void your warranty solely based on...

Do you mean 9 quarts for your Audi and not for the Emira? Emira should be just over 6qts according to the manual.

Mine were grabby also was almost embarrassed but have got more used to them. They seem to shed quite a bit of dust compared to other cars so far. Maybe its the silver wheels that i try to keep the dust off so notice it more.

I just hope I dont have to find that out. But probably will

If you havent been told you were getting a FE2, then youll have to wait to til the new base configurator comes online. Ask your dealer how many people are in front of you that also have a base edition now and how many allocations they have per month. That should give you a guesstimate once they...

Beauty and the Beast

Good images. Also I think they put the forward lift point as far forward and the rear so far aft to allow for stability if the engine is removed on the lift. The CG will shift forward and dont want that moment arm to be so short coupled if the fwd lift point is where that fwd bend is. If just...

Got mine today (USA). The rest of USA should get theirs 'soon' as I was an early order. BTW these are not snaps at the ring. Prob said somewhere earlier but I missed it apparently. Figured out quickly it unscrews.

My guess is you do not have a wheel balancing issue or alignment issue so they are technically correct. Totally unacceptable for them not to fully test everything before handing it back to you like that. Seems better to just show them the problem and not suggest any fixes for them to appease...

Anyone figured out how to disable the touch feature yet? Have had problems getting this right from day one. I continue to be terrible at getting it right.

Went to Lowes to get some 2x4s and manure. jk. Trying to find some totes that fit in trunk. I like to have something like this for food leftovers or anything that can possibly spill. Kind of a challenge to find one for the emira that fits. The small ones are too small and the larger (17 gallon)...

I'd be calling LotusUSA to report this dealer and try to get them involved. Have the tech drive (not just you) your car and their car back to back first. Go on the same stretch of roads at the same speed, let go of the wheel and see if any difference. Any wheel shake is also unacceptable. Make...

113k+7.5k fees=120.5k I predicted 120k :p

Lots Of Time Unlikely Soon

Definitely doing myself no later than 1k miles. Good time to check everything else out while got under panels off. Every 12 months after that regardless of miles always do 5k intervals if sooner.

I predict around 120k. Never underestimate the power of the mob. Seen so many cars on BaT go for way over market...and people buying sight unseen usually. Scary. Barret Jackson the same way. Can't believe what people pay when they're emotionally caught up and competing to get it.

Drove the car to work...can keep an eye on it and admire from my desk.

Thats clearly the wastegate valve on the turbocharger. ;) actually overheard at cars and coffee.

Be careful of those upsell guys. When got my car they tried to use language like 'it extends your factory warranty for so many years'. I asked them if it extended the FULL Lotus warranty. Then he eventually admitted it only covers the powertrain. The one they offered me was thru Axiom though...

At least they got to it quickly. Maybe they will at the dealer also. Just curious what gear did you start the car in or N? Even with the car off it wont go into any gear? Never knew either Lotus was using a plastic MC. Guess they have some ex-BMW engineers working there.

The car going to redline (super scary I bet) is very odd which doesnt sound like it should be clutch related but.....Lotus. Curious what they find the problem is.

Make them sign a letter saying if they drill the bumper they owe you $5k to get their attention. This is the way. https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/front-license-plate-mount.4331/page-2

Good info. I dont like the red cover piece either. finally see what is involved though with removing it or painting. Too bad its not easier...I'll prob just live with it as it easy to push start without playing fighter pilot with the red cover.

I saw it was up before posted here and ordered. Think I was first...did i win anything?:p

What info is in the 'members only' forum? Do we get members only jackets also? ;) Is the map fixed for members? It works for non-members but doesnt have many users on it.

+1 for Walmart AGM. The last H6 battery AGM and another AGM one I got from Walmart said "made in Germany". Have a 4 or 5 year warranty too. What I plan to put in our 911 when the OEM factory one dies (been in there 10 years)

wait is more correct. hard to remember so many years ago but dont think they ever promised delivery in 1st quarter of 21 (which would be 3 years late then) Both are funny to fellow Emira owners who will get the joke...but no one else prob will. Could also do: NOT SOON

I dont let anyone (except my wife) drive any of my cars (even if value almost worthless) without being in the car myself....ever. Dont see how Turo is even a thing for nicer cars. You place too much faith in people that would be renting your car. Most are renting it to abuse it and see how...

I've bought a used car from a dealer in FL (live in AL) before. They had me sign a form saying that I did not pay sales tax and would pay it in home state when registering. When I got the Emira in TN they charged me the "state" tax rate where I lived. They send a check for that amount to the...

I always put the sun shield up in cars. I'm really a fan of the twist and fold up type having had the fitted roll up and accordian style. Easy to put behind the pass seat. I took one out of one of the other cars for the Emira and it fits perfectly everywhere. Benefit of the type since it has...
