The red cover looks great on Vivid! Congrats! 🎉

Yeah, you might luck out. I signed up to be a beta tester for some of their VW R&D years ago and got free service for a while.

I'm not aware of anything that works like that for Lotus. You could try reaching out to Carista and ask if they can make some adaptations for Lotus, but I doubt they'll have a test vehicle.

Ya'll already know me and what I drive. I'm in Wilmington, DE and occasionally find myself in the Arlington/DC area for work. @Porter and I actually met up down there last week! My bright green Evora GT is hard to miss and I drive as often as possible. You'll likely find me at the Mainline C&C...

Agreed! A Mid-Atlantic sub would be great in addition to the current east coast subs we already have. Especially now since NA owners have taken delivery and we'll be organizing local meets and events. @supersix @Dragoon

VW did something similar with the new GTIs. MK8s debuted a couple years ago with haptic touch buttons and 99% of journalists and buyers disliked them. So now they went back to actual buttons for MY2024 and everyone is happy again.

I don't understand. I run a dashcam too. No issues.. 🤔

Ha! Even I didn't know that. Nice find!

Just get quality ceramic window and windshield tint. You don't have to go dark and it'll still do a fantastic job rejecting 99% of UV rays and a lot of infrared heat.

https://electrek.co/2024/04/16/lotus-opens-eletre-suv-orders-north-america-shares-pricing-delivery-timelines/ TL;DR: $107k for base and $145k for the R. The Eletre R was an awesome test drive experience. Exceptional build quality and stupid fast with 900+HP. $145k though... 😬

Yep, I stopped by Philly on Sunday to check them out. The Seneca FE got delivered to the lucky buyer yesterday. They also have a Atlantis Blue with Ice Grey interior getting delivered soon.

This. People overlook windshield protection and care when detailing. I have the lightest possible ceramic tint on the inside (70% xpel xr plus IIRC) and I polish my windshield yearly and apply Gyeons Q2 View ceramic coating. It makes a huge difference. I plan to eventually get the ppf like film...

We actually have 2 in my area! Really cool cars. I love that exposed shift linkage. It's a work of art.

Summer is finally here and car season officially back in swing in my part of the world. This morning's local Cars & Coffee season opener was something else! There had to be around 4k people there and I saw everything from Paganis, Bugattis, and Rimacs to Cyber Trucks, a Huracan Sterrato, and a 3...

Welcome to the party! Glad you decided to sign up. 🎉

Lotus QC at its finest. 😂

Any updates on your delivery date? I'm tempted to take a ride up to RDS to check out Atlantis in person.

PPF posts have been moved.

Glad we're getting these documented. Sourcing windshields for Lotus vehicles have been known to take quite a long time, so hopefully this doesn't turn into a recall. I'll merge reports into a single thread if we have any more similar incidents posted here.

Does yours look like this? https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/windshield-internal-crack.4197/

Interesting.. I recall another owner posting about something very similar a month or so ago.. Wonder if this is a design flaw.

Epic spec! Congrats again!!

I noticed, but been out of town for a conference all week. I'll try to clean it up a bit when I'm back home. For now, please continue the [non-dealer specific] PPF discussion in our dedicated PPF thread. Thanks!

Fixed it for ya.

Spotting another Lotus in my area is a rare occurance, but hopefully that changes with the Emira. I'm lucky to see 2 or 3 other Lotus in the wild each year (C&C and track days excluded). Figured I'd start a thread here in our Northeast regional sub to post any exciting local spottings. I'll...

Nice! What's your interior spec?

*25EmiraUS 🤣

You're never getting your car bro. Just be happy I let you drive my Evora now and then. 😂

I sure did! Great turn out. Here are a few highlights including a Murcielago, Pantera, and SF90.. a Cybertruck even showed up, which you can kinda see behind the crowd in this first pic! There were two GT3RS, a wide body NSX, and a ton of other great cars.

It was @ott - See their post about it here.

They literally told an early buyer to do just that. I don't think it was scoates, but didn't someone have an issue with water getting into the hatch and freezing? Lotus told them to drill a hole in it to let the water drain.

That's some good customer service. 👏🏼 Let us know if this ends up fixing the problem @beardp.

Gummi Pflege is awesome for keeping those rubber seals around the windows and door frames fresh and moisturized. It's popular in the VW/Audi world, but I use it on all my vehicles as part of a yearly detail. It's easy to apply and ~$12 on Amazon.
