    Emira JB4 Tuning Now Available for I4 & V6 Cars!

    Bro, go inside and rest! Thanks for doing this though. Let the tune smooth out after a bit of driving and do these runs again next week or whenever you're feeling better.

    Matt Windle promoted, says he wants to build more cars at Hethel

    Exactly. I can only imagine how many angry letters they received during the long and painful Emira rollout. Most companies now just have a social media marketing team manage customer communications.

    Anyone moved away from 'LTS' bespoke tyres?

    PS4S is the popular choice, for good reason, but I opted for the Conti ECS02s on my GT. They are on par with PS4S, but have a stiffer sidewall and usually a few hundred bucks cheaper. TireRack frequently has Continental rebate offers. I run PS4S on my daily driven GTI, but wanted to try...

    Cracked windscreen

    Good call. I made sure my Lotus policy had zero deductible windshield coverage.

    Dash Cam Install tips

    I have a pinned story on my Instagram that covers the important parts of the install. It's basically the same for the Emira, unless you just want to plug into the usb port in the rearview mirror...

    Insurance quote: 4.8x the price of my 2007 Exige S

    Bumping this thread with an update on my end... I'm currently paying $1907/yr with State Farm for my Evora GT with no agreed value (so market value only and this is added to my existing policy with daily drivers and home). So after Progressive said they wouldn't insure a GT, I ended up getting...

    Jokerz Performance Supercharger porting

    Olympic Motorsports has tuned a few Evora GTs with the Jokerz ported blowers, as well as smaller pulleys, larger throttle bodies, etc.. You can call and speak directly with the owner, Luiggi, and I'm sure he'll give you all the info needed. They've been posting some impressive dyno charts with...

    Jokerz Performance Supercharger porting

    I've heard Jokerz does good work, but actual performance gains are minimal. Money is spent better elsewhere.. Like seat time and brake pads. 😉

    Introducing the Clark edition Emira

    Same V6 powertrain but special livery and interior bits. I like the wooden shift knob. Unsure about the single red seat. Either way, it's a very cool tribute to one of the greatest drivers ever. Limited to 60 worldwide. More details on the Clark Edition Emira here.

    Lotus Emira V8 in Testing & Other News

    Easily considering the i4 is damn near $100k.

    Stopped by to check out the Isotope Emira in person today. Here are my thoughts and some comparison pics..

    Lotus introduces ‘Lotus Chapman Bespoke’

    Sounds about right. The special metallics will likely be a $4-5k premium and the fancy tri-coats $8-10k.

    Lotus introduces ‘Lotus Chapman Bespoke’

    Yeah, a fully loaded V6 MT first edition was $93k when I ordered mine. I realize they're a lot more now.

    Insurance quote: 4.8x the price of my 2007 Exige S

    And they just said they won't cover my car. They just straight up won't insure a Lotus Evora. When I asked why and told her I had friends with their Emira insured through Progressive, she said something about it having to be +/- 2 years old.. Wtf?

    Insurance quote: 4.8x the price of my 2007 Exige S

    Currently talking with Progressive because their website didn't have Lotus as an option in the quote dropdown. Now I'm on hold because they can't even pull up my car by the VIN... :sneaky:

    Same in DE. Calling Progressive this afternoon... State Farm hates Lotus. 😂

    Isotype Green in the Flesh

    It's a Lamborghini color. Same as a couple others they painted with the bespoke program. My window sticker does say Verde Ithaca, but the brochure says Verde Pearl. I've also seen "Ithica" spelled with an I instead.

    Isotype Green in the Flesh

    Yep. Verde Ithaca was an $8100 premium on the Evora GT. 💚

    It's a limited color introducing the Chapman Bespoke program. 60 have been made in Isotope (so far).

    MY2025 less problematic?

    Haha, I just heard it at yesterday's C&C. More so about the cars being annoying and problematic, not so much the owners.

    Lotus introduces ‘Lotus Chapman Bespoke’

    Lol, yeah.. a 60 identical car run for a bespoke program is just silly. People will buy them though! I'm excited to see what they actually do.. imagine an Emira getting the McLaren MSO treatment. Custom paint schemes, wheels, seats, interiors, etc.. 🤩
