    All the Lotus info from Goodwood FOS...

    Sadly I don’t think this is the case. I suspect it’s due to chip supply issues still. I asked whether things like active cruise could be added to early cars later on, and was told “only if the hardware is there, which is not guaranteed”. So you may get the pod but not actually get many of the...

    Complete lack of touch up pens and paint code formulas

    Info in this thread, there are aftermarket suppliers who can match the paint from the code https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/emira-paint-color-codes.875/

    ADAS pods will be fitted to all i4 FEs. First batch cars will only get limited functionality, which does include road sign recognition but other elements including adaptive cruise control are all TBC. Later cars will have more features.

    Arrived and talked my way in before gates opened. Bigger stand than last year but not so many cars. 3 Eletres and only one Emira. Evija hidden upstairs in the VIP area. The Emira is a black i4. More to follow. Staff briefing and then we’re underway

    More price news in the UK due today

    I got one email in relation to my deferred V6 FE deposit, which is provisionally a Q1/Q2 2024 build and spec is submitted but not locked yet. I didn’t get one for my second deposit on a 2024 Base Edition and am now expecting that will have had 3 or 4 price increases by the time it is delivered...

    Odd about problems joining. There are two people who have joined Thursday, so it’s not the group settings.

    If you want to meet up with other forum members then let’s aim to be in front of the Lotus stand at 10.30am on exact day. The stand is in a different place to last year, closer to the course and next to the Startline Bridge. I’ll be there on Thu and Sun and will be wearing a dark grey and...

    Lotus number 7 and loving it

    45 years of ownership is amazing. And after seeing pictures of your cars I realise we've known each other for about 20 years through the Club Lotus track days at Goodwood. Your yellow Evora S and my blue Evora S lapped together probably 8-9 years ago. I snapped your Emira here...

    Welcome to the forum and congratulations on the car. B&C are excellent. Great car history, do you have any pictures you can share? And of your Emira of course. We have a monthly Lotus owners meet near B&C at Newlands Corner - you may have been with one of your previous cars. Every third...

    What Will Lotus Show At Goodwood 2023?

    Yes you can and I suspect they will announce the date for the order book closing at or soon after Goodwood, coinciding with them announcing Base Edition options pricing and timing for start of build. If they are still aiming for Q1/Q2 2024 start then they will want to get specs from the first...

    I'm out - the cancellations thread

    In the UK you can’t wait till you get to the front of the line and then go into a holding pattern, you have to take the slot or drop out. I assume some dealers in the US may operate a similar approach, as they have to submit a preliminary order to Lotus when you place your deposit. I’m not sure...

    As well as the Hethel Arms in Off Topic, we probably need to start the Hotel California. For people who have cancelled their deposit but can't quite manage to leave the forum... :)

    📓 Journals Diaries of the first Lotus Emira picked up from Hethel - V6 FE - yellow / ice / silver / sport

    They've fitted the GT4 wing and splitter and tuned it to 430hp by way of an apology? ;)

    Seneca Blue Lotus Emira Photo Thread

    There were cars in Magma Red, Seneca Blue and Hethel Yellow but not a full set. We had all the colours at Lotus in the Peak - pics in that thread.
