Because they designed the car with the batteries where an engine would be, they may be able to reconfigure it for a V12. They'd probably sell a lot more of them if they did.

The only thing that would get you where I live is a request from the police to pull over and get out of the car lol.

Aston Martin Lennox Green... this is what Dark Verdant should have been. The Emira would look absolutely stunning in this color.

Just got the news today that Park Place which is in Bellevue, Washington, is opening a new dealership in Boise, Idaho! That's right in between Bellevue and Salt Lake City, which helps fill in the gap for service and support.

For those who are interested, you can watch the Emira in action at the Paul Ricard GT4 race:

You're welcome. Quickjacks are really nice to have. They're heavy (100 lbs for each rail), but make it so much easier to work on the car.

Lotus needs to start thinking in practical terms instead of trying to instantly be another Porsche. What they did in Wuhan was a huge and expensive overstep. What they should do is go back to the basics and make fun cars that people can afford. Hethel should come up with something like the...

If you don't want to do it yourself, you might try taking to a Toyota dealer. The only real difference is the under tray pan. It's a Toyota engine; same filter. If you want to buy the oil and filter yourself, see if they can just do the change. Any independent shop might do it if you supply...

That is absolutely ridiculous. Even if you have to buy the tools, the filter wrench and a drain pan, including the oil and filter you can do the whole thing for less than $100. The most time-consuming part is removing and reinstalling the under tray pan below the oil filter area. I have a...

The ones that are the specific Lotus spec say LTS on them.

Was that the result of just adding the sound deadener? You didn't change the speakers or anything else?

I think you misunderstood what I said. It's just a volume control, not piping in engine noise. I've done modifications to my car with the intake, exhaust, and heat shield sound proofing in the back and I can tell you V6 engine noise is not being piped into the cabin through the sound system.

That suggests automatic volume adjustment based on speed to offset road noise levels.

That just shows the electrical common ground connections.

Right but the point was negotiations are still going on.

According to this article the tariff right now for the U.K. is 10%. but negotiations are still going on to get it down even further. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2025/04/05/trump-says-uk-pm-very-happy-with-britain-being-on-minimum-rate/

I'm waiting for the weather to warm up so I can take my car out and drive it again. I want to do some Dragy runs with it as-is before I switch out the factory brakes to the CCB set I bought. Once I put the car up on the Quickjack to switch out the brakes, I'm planning on removing the wheel...

Okay, since the handful of babies complaining (not you Benjh1028) need their safe space from any kind of disagreement, so be it. It doesn't matter that much to me either way. I'll stay out of this "toxic" thread so the babies won't have to see anything outside their own opinions.

I requested this be closed many pages ago because I could see where it was going, but nobody wanted to.

Are we going to stop this or do you want to keep it going?

Telling people to stand 6 feet apart does not stop a virus. Medical masks protect others from possibly being infected by you, only certain masks can stop a virus, and those weren't what were being handed out. Read up on the reports from the medical experts. I've read a lot about it, including...

If you'd paid attention to what I actually said, I said Covid was real. I lost both my mother and one of my brothers in 2020, so I understand how you feel, but the comment about scamdemic was with regards to what we were told about it, the force that was used against people with regards to...

It actually is history, and you literally have no idea what you're talking about, but that's not important now. This is not the place for that discussion.

Actually the thread is about tariffs as the title says, but I get your point and appreciate the sentiment. I don't think Lotus (at least Hethel) is going to stop production for U.S. cars. What I expect is they'll at least apply for an exemption as a very small manufacturer in the industry...

lol in it's "infancy"? You know nothing about ancient history, do you. Oh well. Byeee

"Voodoo mysticism"? Have you tried reading those two chapters I referred to in the Bible? Daniel's is about 2,500 years old, and the Book of Revelation was written almost 2,000 years ago. Try reading the descriptions in those two chapters I referenced, and realize how close what's happening...

Until something official is worked out (and Starmer is in talks right now with Trump to do just that), we just have to wait and see what they come up with. Nobody knows yet. You can be sure U.K. manufacturers are talking to Starmer, who's talking to Trump. The U.K. is actually in somewhat of...

World politics and economics is essentially a version of Game of Thrones. Massive amounts of money being moved around along with all the mechanisms it takes to either make or take that money. The ban on flights was only from those countries that were openly hostile to us, and were sending...

You're not picking on me. I don't mind a civil conversation. Yes Trump is not playing nicely which was my point about him learning from his first term and not playing that game anymore. The situation is far more serious than people realize because everything appears to be somewhat normal...

You don't say.... tell us more. And since you like to pull what I say out of context and quote it to pretend I'm saying something I'm not and didn't, how about these: If you read what I actually wrote in context, you'd see that I was in fact talking about the Federal budget and Federal...

This should help. There's more blue in Osmium that you might realize. It makes silver look almost grey by comparison.
