I took one. There are no internal mods to the engine. The transmission gets internal and external mods. .

I’ve looked at your data set. I’m very curious what you are seeing from this incredibly limited input to say it’s helpful.

Depends on what it will be used for.

This is interesting data, but speaking as a guy who has done a bit of statistical analysis, I can caution you that your sample size needs to be significantly higher to draw any useful conclusions. Also, your sample population is highly skewed toward forum/fb users and not the general...

You can set the units to either system.

The $3400 is just the normal destination fee in Canada $. There should be no PDI fee as dealers are reimbursed by Lotus for that service. The other freight? Are you picking the car up at the dealer or are they shipping to you?

I’ve been playing around with pressures, hitting the same roads to reduce variables. My main complaint was understeer in hard cornering. I prefer at least some mild oversteer. The last 2 days I’ve run 2 lbs under front and back. The backs heat up more so eventually it goes to about a 4 lb...

I've tried to find one before, but couldn't. So I just moved the PDF over to my iphone and can access through acrobat. Works great.

Yeah, the last 10 minutes of a BaT auction can get crazy sometimes.

Remember that a lot of buyers are not on the forum.

@Life411, I wasn't replying to you. I was taking issue with some over-the-top statements. That said, you've made your point. You'll get some agreements and some disagreements on your posts. In either case, I hope you soon get the message that your car has arrived!

I don’t agree. They aren’t under any obligation to disclose employees personal information to the public. Perhaps a better practice would be for forum members not to lose their s#!+ because a guy is out of pocket for a week.

That is not normal. It should drive arrow straight with no vibrations. One thing to check is your tire pressures. I had a similar problem one time with another car (different brand) and the tires were way overinflated. I brought them down to the correct pressures and it resolved the issue.

Yes, a few days ago. I was careful to separate my comments from Lotus US, the car itself and the dealership. If they read my comments, they'll get the message!

Remember to add 5% to winning bid up to $5000. Buyer pays the fee on BaT.

You could NOT be more wrong about Gator. As far as I can tell, you would be the worst kind of customer for any dealership to deal with. Take a few minutes and read back over the last few years of this forum and perhaps you'll find that Gator has probably been the best dealership in trying to...

FE1 and final deposit was in '22 along with everyone else. It arrived in Baltimore in early December. Luckily I don't live far from Gator so I can drop in and bug them in person. I'll echo what others have said, though. They are pretty swamped with a small staff and lots of cars coming in...

I love clever plates, but didn't you just place your order in January 2024? Seems like yours would be closer to SHORTW8

I took delivery on 3/29. Great experience with no issues.

After a couple hundred miles, I've switched from the converter to the mirror tap. My unit cut out a few times during hard driving. It didn't seem to be from the voltage, but more from the usb connection not being really solid. I could wiggle it and it would cut out. So, I went with the tried...

I grabbed it in 2005 and it’s been on an Elise, Evora and several dailies waiting for the day I got a new Lotus. I’m glad I held onto it!

Just mounted mine…

In recent cars I’ve owned, the SOS feature was either subscription based or free for a limited time. I’m already a little irritated that the SOS error comes and goes. Is there a way to just kill the SOS feature? I have no intention to purchase a subscription, so it’s just there to annoy me...

Many people don't show up (including me). Moderator said it's based on IP address, and those can be squirreled up by VPN, provider proxies, etc.

It’s probably a safe bet that most owners didn’t make it 100 yards before switching to sport. The only useful feature of Tour is to remind you to switch to sport.

I’m getting senile. I read that page twice and skipped the window part. Mine didn’t work either. I’d like to figure out how that feature works since it’s very useful.

I couldn't find that feature in the manual. What page?

A couple of questions for the moderators… I added my color but my badge color didn’t change. Is that feature TBD? Member map not displaying location. Is there another privacy setting that needs to be updated to get that to display? Thanks!

Bored this morning so checking out the Supporting Member features. I increased the number of posts per page and I got the NA Delivery thread down under 400 pages. So I can now relive the excitement of hitting 500 again.

A lot of dash cams like yours are designed to to run off USB power. Many (most?) radar detectors require the higher voltage since they pull a higher wattage. Mirror taps or step-ups are just about the only choice for detector users.

I have the MAXcam 360c with a 12" converter cord. I'd have guessed my detector/camera combo would draw more current. Maybe my Emira and step-up converter tolerances were both on the high side and it's enough to keep it powered! I really thought I'd need to go with a mirror tap, but I got lucky!

Out of curiosity, did you go with the short or long cable. I think these step-ups are right on the ragged edge of having enough power and the longer the cable, the more power dissipation. I got the short cable version and it's still working ok.

I had the SOS issue when I picked up mine this morning. I drove home about 15 miles. Restarted and it’s gone.

Just picked up today!

I'm replying to my own message with an update. I picked up the car today and connected my Escort 360c with the above mentioned step up cord. It worked just fine with no intermittent issues. I'll keep an eye on it but it's very practical.

Today I took delivery of my Emira!! Almost 6 months after my M2C crash and resulting surgeries and rehabs, I am finally cleared to drive again. This feels like a reward and the coinciding timing of delivery is perfect! Drove home and it sounds terrific and looks terrificer! I did full PPF and...
