    Lotus Emira interior is pretty much Lynk & Co...

    I believe those are the oem parts. Someone here found a source for the tactile button version which is a direct drop-in. I believe a member in China had them replaced while having some body repair.

    For those of us not getting an Emira soon

    That is amazing! I love the lift!

    $10,000 Gold Titanium exhaust on a Lotus Emira

    I couldn’t watch more than 2-min of that video as it put me on the verge of a seizure. That guy needs to seriously lay off the caffeine.

    JUBU Group Buy 15% discount

    For clarification, one can just plug the original ECU in if needed for warranty work?

    Chinese 2.0T 0-100km/hr test

    It should be upgraded for free as in all likelihood Lotus will impose a large price increase prior to 2025 deliveries.

    An Unreal Driving Adventure of a Lifetime

    I looked at the reviews of the Twingo and most every one says it has a "surprisingly robust air conditioning" so I'm in. How fun would it be to build and rally that car!

    Anyone seen Nimbis/Ice combo in real life?

    I would never have thought to match ice interior to a lighter colored car, but it REALLY works! If you haven't seen the pictures of Osmium Silver w/Ice interior they are quite stunning (maybe my favorite spec): https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/usa-canada-delivery-thread.2183/post-135074

    An Unreal Driving Adventure of a Lifetime

    This looks like one of the greatest adventure vacations ever. Yeah it's expensive, but it's almost worth the $72k just for the opportunity to "get a Cayman across a raging river" (note some of us would sink the Cayman and claim we could have done it in an Emira because of it's significantly...

    Words can’t describe the quality! Phenomenal deal. Thanks Marty - we all know it’s a huge lift and are very appreciative.

    Congrats! But I think you are wrong that it makes your other cars look dull. Great collection of true driver's cars. And awesome garage as well!

    Sorry about the rock chips. Hopefully it can be fixed like new by a touch up pro. I sent three requests through their website to find a dealer in my area and never got a response. Will definitely stop pursing this product.

    Look up Window Sticker online?

    Is there a way to look up Lotus window stickers (Monroney labels) online? I can find plenty of options for domestic vehicles but not Lotus. Thanks!

    I'm hopeful that paint blisters were an early, non-U.S. issue as there doesn't seem to be too many reports of this issue stateside.

    Lotus Evija Fastest Production Car around the Ring

    And even more so a full roll cage. After pushing a relatively stock vehicle on the track for a while I made the jump to a dedicated track car with a full cage. Also saw several times what happens to a 911 going 120-mph around turn 12 at Road Atlanta and "kisses" the concrete wall.

    Lotus Evija Fastest Production Car around the Ring

    A Civic is faster on the track than an Exige Cup? Yikes.

    Emira and Quick Jack

    It would not be exclusive to the Emira. Good point on portability - have no idea as to how well the trolly works in moving it around.

    Emira and Quick Jack

    Thinking of this as an alternative as it has adjustable lift arms and a much higher lift height. Anyone have experience with this type of lift...

    Red starter button cover

    Great work! For us lazier people, there is a thread somewhere on this forum with a link to buy that part (and the starter button) in different colors. The manufacturer is Lynk & Co (a Geely company).

    Eagle you still don’t have your car? Seems like there is a handful of you guys that have been waiting forever. Hope you hear something soon (and not the Lotus definition of soon).

    I'm out - the cancellations thread

    I totally disagree here. If I’m told I better wire my money now if I want a car by Spring and then a week later it’s pushed out a year I call that a breach of contract. Verbal commitments matter in a court of law. Intent matters in a court of law. The law does apply reasonableness in deciding...

    I'm out - the cancellations thread

    General contract law can still apply. I'm no attorney, but it seems like fraud may have been committed with the "secure the last spot now for Spring delivery!" followed by "just kidding". The fact they wouldn't discuss the situation after it was revealed deliveries would be delayed by a year...

    This! Also, your deposit was predicated on a Feb/March delivery. You had to wire funds to ensure you got this slot. Even if orally stated, this was a condition of your deposit and should be considered part of your contract by intent. And now, they broke the contract. The dealer's "policy"...
