Wow, that is really good news. My dealer had no information when I stopped in on Monday of this week. Think I will keep the early 2025 in my mind just so I don't get excited.. But I will be texting and asking my dealer about the Lotus email your dealer disclosed.

Oh, no of course not. I called Lotus USA and confirmed that they had my correct email. once I did that I started receiving email from LotusUSA. Including the 2025 delay email, and the email on the "Free Gift", that they sent to the wrong address, and it sat for 5 months out in the elements until...

Just ran my information through Geico quote configurator and got $106.14 (1273.68), at 5k miles a year. No Vin to use yet, but not sure if rates dropped or not based on the numbers I got.

Have you heard some news on the deliveries moving forward? I had heard they may be pulling the i4 deliveries forward for the US, and even paid a visit to my dealer last week to ask, but I have not been able to confirm the news is true. I'm still operating under the 1/18/2024 email stating early...

100% - my exact thinking in making the decision, on Options 1 and 3, didn't really consider Option 2. Additionally, I took the opportunity during the delay(s) to put the Option 1 cash in a high return account to build above what was needed for any incidentals (beyond insurance, delivery/tag...

Speaking of modifying oneself, I am trying to move away from calling this the “Harry Spec” since he no longer owns the car. However, someone did have this spec on order before Harry, but for the life of me I cannot remember who? @Bilbao-Emira maybe? I love seeing the pictures, my exact spec...

So, I have to admit I have posted my share of snarky comments about having never received the “free gift” promised by Lotus. However, after a very early morning flight to beautiful location where I maintain an infrequently used getaway, I rounded the corner and spotted an extremely weathered...

Looks like this vendor has rubber mats as well as stitched. https://www.onlinefussmatten.de/fussmatte/lotus/emira/ Last entry on the page - DuoGrip Gummi

Satellite radio phone app - works great through CarPlay and Android Auto, tested both.

I am in the exact same timeframe, 7/22 reserve 9/23 lock in. The 1/18/24 email with the 2025 date was heartbreaking. I'm glad this thread was started - I had not heard of any production/delivery dates being pulled forward, but its welcomed news..

I'm not affiliated in any way, but I did find this while looking at car covers. It includes the "Date Signed From Production", assume thats the date it was completed. https://shop.thelotusforums.com/en-us/products/lotus-certificate-of-provenance

Received! The quality is brilliant, the instructions are perfect as well. However, the topper was the small Emira art piece included in the package, now I need to figure out what to decorate with this cool piece of art. Now I really wish I wasn't still in limbo on the US deliveries of the i4...

My dealer in Palm Beach was straight up honest and told me Naples is the largest dealer, after Summit NJ told me they were. However, I am running in to the same "lack of communication", both from Lotus and the dealer - locked in Oct 2023, and nothing from either since. I will say though when I...

Reserved in early 2022, locked-in build config early Oct. 2023, was told delivery Feb. Mar. 2024. Then I received the post-Christmas present email that "certain checks and certifications must be finalized...blah, blah, blah... so expect 2025. 😯 Nothing since the 2025 slip 18 Jan. 2024 email...

Mid-2025 if you ordered early 2022 - ask me how I know..better yet don't, its too painful..

The doors don't unlock when the car is put in park? My Jeep does the "lock at speed", but when I stop and put the it in park the doors all unlock.

Was in San Antonio Wed. - Fri., and saw the news after I landed Friday afternoon. Shocked when I saw the damage, it was threatening in San Antonio all day Thursday, but we got nothing.

Any reference shots for the the filter location? drain plug seems easy enough..

Agreed, I am assuming that there will be similar access to the drain and plug as with the V6. However, I have not seen a view of the i4 with the panels removed. I have been trying to get a feel for the location by looking at A45 photos/videos - not sure it will help, but you never know..

I am planning on a 500mi change. Following advice from a lubricant expert formerly of Gibbs Racing. He suggests a change on a new car after a few hundred miles, but anything less than 500 sounded to overly cautious. Have a friend with several lifts, so I'm just going to ask to borrow some lift...

The quick answer in my case was 14 months from deposit to build order - and being locked in. The longer, more accurate (and concerning), answer is - I'm currently at 19 months and waiting. Have been informed I have an FE, but sitting on an I4 allocation/Lotus confirmed build order, which has...

When will the realization set in that the plural of Lotus is Lotus, not Lotuses...🤔

Me too, I'm told all the time I'm wrong..

Low battery in the fob? Ive had that happen in a few cars. I've also had it happen when I've left the fob in the car on a brisk night too.

I have nothing to do with the company, just a customer, but if you go for a clear use KBS Clear Diamond Finish. Its not cheap, but unbelievably hard, so it will not wear with all the touching. Also, it's almost impossible to get runs even when sprayed with a 1:1 reduction mix - but you can buy...

Did anyone ever locate the official Lynk & Co part numbers for the tactile buttons? I did some research based on the photos from the China i4 swap, but got nowhere..

Wife keeps telling me I am wrong so I wasn't sure, I appreciate the validation.. :ROFLMAO:

Wasn't there a post from a while ago, one of the first delivery owners, that mentioned this exact rain scenario - also after washes - where the dealer finally wrapped the ECU in a plastic wrap to solve the issue? I may be imagining it, but I swear I remember reading that a long time ago..

Longing for my Emira

Nope - got the email from Lotus promising a gift "soon", but opposite of @idleuser I have never received the tracking email.. or gift.

Well yeah, 11K? Holy Buckets! That changes the story..

Think that @DerTheDer 's comment was referring to the Dealer - not the customer. That is how I read it anyway...

Frog in the pot, my friend, Frog in the pot...

Should have phrased that differently. there are a ton of articles on tuning the M139, but AMG has stated that the engine was built to withstand at least 155k miles without any sort of rebuild (with diligent regular maintenance). I also ran across this article a while ago, which talks about how...

I saw that, but then some of the pictures of China delivered i4s have the pod on the front lip - so I am wondering why some are delivered with and some without? Thinking future software updates to support if delivered with the pod.

Does yours have the ADAS pod on the front? I am hoping the delay will mean mine is delivered (was early 2024, now early 2025) with some of those systems available?
