    Insurance

    I am using Progressive, no restrictions, excellent high $ coverage for two drivers (even for rentals and the like), $500 deductible in Palm Beach where they assume a stolen car is out of the country by the time you report it, because of the ports - $1250/yr (just the Emira, no bundle)

    2nd check engine light in less than 500 miles

    Just out of curiosity, V6 or i4? Not that is makes a difference. But, I'm picking mine up next week, and this is the type of situation I am dreading.. Like you I would have thought we would have been past these issues..

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    Took a closer (blown up) look at your photo, it looks really nice with the slight leather texture in the yellow.. Picking my car up on Monday, so I am putting together my to-do list.

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    What did you use? I was thinking of trying a strip of vinyl wrap, thought here is that it would be more robust than yellow electrician tape, or something along those lines..

    Has anyone seen the Emira logo that is offered by Witamats (one of the selections before adding to cart)? I was looking for an example, and did some Google-Fu, but could not find and example.

    I4 Emira Turbo/AMG DIY oil changes?

    Incredible information!! Thank you! The Mercedes-Benz Operating Fluids site is easily navigated, and provides good guidance, as I was trying to match the standards from the manual, but the MB site gives plenty of options on vendors..

    Hello and seeking advice

    Odd, Brent is usually on it. Responds right away every time I call or text. You must have caught Palm Beach on an off day.. I know there are a couple of nicely configured orphans on the lot too..

    USA/Canada Delivery Thread

    Mine was on the 12/15 boat as well - Dealer said it was on transport, would be delivered to their site this week (S. Florida). Traveling for work, so I'll be delayed for 2 weeks before I can pick it up..

    Painted my garage!

    Thanks.. Yeah, I was figuring it was reaching out to the seller via email, but thought I may have been missing something - a notes option while ordering or something.. Been following the thread closely, looked at other purchasing options too but haven't had much luck. All others seem to be...

    Painted my garage!

    Where do you indicate US version? Trying to purchase, both using "Buy Now" and through the Cart, but I don't see any place to indicate a US version. (I assume to prevent ending up with a Lotus NYO version of the logo)

    Painted my garage!

    Ok, where did you find the puddle lights? I have searched for ones with either the Emira logo or the Lotus logo - but best I could find was "add your own logo" type.

    OK, so having to travel through 1/16 isn't really slowing down my pickup by too much time - I was seriously trying to come up with excuses to not travel for work the first few weeks of the new year.. crisis alleviated..

    I4 Delivery Date USA/Canada Updates

    Anyone heard from the dealer or taken delivery of an i4 that was on the 12/15 boat, or is it still to early for those to be available? Just wondering when I should be expecting a notification from my dealer in S. Florida.

    World Imports/Lotus of Jacksonville?

    I have a neighbor, who owns a small dealership for collector cars, who has worked with them before. He says they are a good dealership. I was going to work with them, even paid them a few visits, and had very good conversations with the staff. They answered all my questions early on without...

    As I said, mine is on the list - but the screen shot from my dealer confirming included some VINs that were "On the Water". So, I thought I would post in case anyone on the forum has any of those VINs.

    Fitting a battery conditioner... Do's and Don'ts

    Glad to see you jumped on this @silent cilantro. I was looking at this solution a couple of weeks ago, because I am not fond of the idea of rigging the lock to "trick' the car into thinking the back deck was fully closed. Any chance of a write-up on par with the one I received from you with my...

    First oil change question

    I am planning on the first oil change only @ ~500 miles. Have had that practice with every car I have owned and they always seem to last a lot longer. Just got rid of a 2006 Miata (to make room for the Emira) with over 220K miles, and still started and ran great - never any issues.. ..and the...
