Hmm, that might have changed since then. On the configurator it still says Base is not available until "Mid 2023".

Huh I didn't know that. Interesting.

I'm opting for it. I like that it matches Full Black Pack more, which I want for my spec.

That's not a glitch, that's how the seats will be delivered. 😂

Hethel Yellow is looking so good......😍

Can we have that Eletre green as an option for the Base Emira?!

I can't read Dark Verdant without reading it as DARK VERDANT?! 😂

It's the Rozzers!

The Aisin 6MT, no? EDIT: I'm dumb. I thought Aisin was subsidiary of Toyota. It's its own firm.

I love that the Emira has a bigger fuel capacity than my M2 Competition (51.86L).

Can anyone else chime in about this. This doesn't sound right to me.

V6 Base (to my knowledge) isn't even available until mid 2023, with delivery in 2024. There's really no way to get into a new Emira any time soon.

I mean I'm all for on-time deliveries; but given the nature of how the world works now (aka nothing is ever delivered on time), I would add 2-3 months to whatever best estimate you receive. It'll just save a lot of disappointment.

I'm pretty concerned about the leather used for the seats. The side bolsters (from what I've seen so far) look like they'll wear out extremely fast. I shouldn't see any creasing at all on a new car.

I actually think deliveries of FE for US would be Q1 of 2023. They're barely making deliveries as scheduled in the home UK market and we're heading into June.

How is this a debate? It's a no-brainer for me. :ROFLMAO: I'm 100% on board with this and is what I'm going for:

It's a bit alarming when delays are occurring in the UK home market. I spoke to my dealer here in Atlanta and he told me I actually go moved UP the list a bit for the Base Model I want because several people backed out from both FE and Base. People are getting sick and tired of playing the...

If I had to compromise on my exact spec to get an early allocation - call me insane, but I rather wait. I'm so OCD about stuff like this that even if I had the car earlier, the entire time I would be nagged by "it's not MY spec."

I was just going to do BRI ISH. I have vanity plates now on my M2C that says MMMBRAP :ROFLMAO:

Would it be possible to make "color threads" more uniform by using DARK VERDANT?! as the primary naming convention? HETHEL YELLOW?! MAGMA RED?! SENECA BLUE?! I like it.

Agreed 100%. I am still irritated that as an Android user, I have no Android Auto in my 2020 M2 Competition (and zero chance of even retrofitting it), nor do I even get basic stuff like Spotify integration for my music. Tech wise I am in the Stone Age in the M2C.

This is an excellent point actually, and I agree.

Here, here. Agreed - if it wasn't for this community and the hard work from the Admins, I'm not sure any of us would get as much info as we do on the Emira.

100%. I too get random bouts of impatience, but overall, (and this will be kind of a shocker) I'm kind of okay with the 2-year wait, lol. Because, seriously, there is literally nothing else like the Emira. Gorgeous British-penned supercar body lines, rock solid Toyota 2GR-FE and Aisin 6MT...

I would totally order Lime Green!

I ordered back in November. But my guy said I am still in line for a Base?

Agreed with this and have the same mindset. As it is now, I'm in line for a Base, so I already know I'm not getting delivery until 2 years from now. But it's all good. More time for me to enjoy the M2 Comp until the Emira arrives!

I don't get why we get so many Vette posts/mentions in here.

I think it's safe to say that we'll get our cars when we get them. Timeline-wise, I've accepted it's just "TBD". There are simply too many variables at play (continual R&D, supply issues, releasing and focusing on other models, building up a bigger dealership network, etc.,) and I think LOTUS...

I ordered my 2020 M2 Competition 6MT without ever driving it, or even seeing one in person. Not a single dealer I visited across 3 different States (Texas, New York, Connecticut) had any in stock. And keep in mind this was in 2019 when the pandemic wasn't raging yet, nor did we have any supply...

Am I missing something? I'm 5'7", 143lbs and it's cramped AF back there. It's difficult to climb, difficult to get situated, and once you get in, you can barely even move. I'm struggling to believe how anyone can call the backseats of an M2 Competition or M2 CS "comfortable". Seriously.

I wonder how the Emira looks with BBS LM's?

I feel like the Emira is the last brand new ICE performance coupe I'm able to order/buy with what I look for in a performance coupe - amazing exterior/interior design, 6MT offered, great engine options, etc. Reason? No one is making the "traditional" sports car anymore. And that's kind of...

Oof, that's pretty. I don't even wear pants anymore.

I am not convinced the C8 will age well.

I had to do this with the M2 Comp when I first got it. It was so annoying, lol. For the first 1500 miles it felt like I bought an economy car. But after..........HOOOOO WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

That's what I've been waiting for too. Which is going to be a WHILE since BE for U.S. isn't even available until 2023.

1. YES. It's subtle, but apparent on a track. 2. DEFINITELY YES. 3. NO. Because iced coffee. 4. YES. But only because I've owned so many cars ranging from super soft to super stiff suspension. 5.. YES. Weight becomes apparent during challenging mountain twisties. That's when being lightweight...

I wanted a BE to begin with and that's what I put down my initial deposit for.

0-60 times don't matter to me. My M2 Competition has a published 0-60 time of 4.2 seconds, but when I'm slowly sipping on my iced coffee, I tend to shift really slow. Which is quite often. (I mean, I really just can't be bothered being all 2fast and 2furious every time I go for a drive, you...
