absolutely I would never park the Emira in a place without enclosed + locked parking. that sounds super scary ill be parking it in a public-ish parking garage for a little bit. it requires a keycard and its huge + tons of space + posh part of town so im not too worried, but I am a little. my...

thats such a relief, i wasn't a fan of how that large orange band looked. im hoping I wont be compelled to get rid of them now

keeping that looking clean would be a full time job looks great tho

its usually about $1 more than the normal stuff, so averages about $4 per gallon atm i was told when I bought my bmw that the B58 requires 93 so thats all iv used since

yeah coming from a lotus race car driver, he didnt think it was as good on the track. pretty high bar at the very end he gave praise towards it when it comes to being a road car

im in Austin and there is an option for 93 at every single gas station iv ever seen here

iv never heard someone say "40th week of the year" before. thats such a weird way to describe a date

probably most tho there was a post earlier calling out people in their 20s with a surprising amount of posters and I also dont match being 31

yep certainly possible there is a poll feature already built in

yeah i know. maybe this was the cause for confusion and why they were so sure

I just received an email from the Lotus of Dallas dealership about a test drive on October 11th

yeah im not totally convinced a lip spoiler can even look good on the Emira.

yeah it was mike or mikey. hes the main Lotus guy over there from what iv heard also damn 17 notifications in a few hours :LOL:

im still new on this Lotus waiting journey, my hopes and dreams havent been crushed yet 🤞

I just got off the phone with the Dallas Lotus dealer. they said they would get their demo cars (one i4 and one v6) and 7 FE1.0 for customers in just 2 weeks! (maybe that 7 is including the demos) sounded so soon I had to ask a 2nd time to make sure. he seems to be really sure! I am now #118...

my deposit was in July 2023 so this will be my first Lotus Delay Experience. oh boy 😐

huh they canceled it?? when did they mention that?

When I asked the Dallas TX dealer about it they insisted and promised they would never do that then gave a long speech about doing the right thing so they gain trust with their customers, so hopefully I wont be

I forget if it was this exact video that sparked this post or not but iv seen lots of similar ones too

my favorite software of theirs is Borderlands personally /s

why would burglars respect parked exotics?

im in Austin. the Emira wont be my only car so it wont be to much of an issue. I dont need to go east side very often im sure even there it would be fine 99% of the time. for years even, but it would just take one bad instance for me to be sad

992 GTS is a great car but I would bet most non-car people dont realize what they are looking at because its way less flashy. I dont think non-car people know that a base 911's start at 6 figures and I dont think they would notice its a GTS or even know what that means if they did

yeah i will be very carful. obsessively so probably. I will take the Emira out only when I have every step planned out, at least at first. I imagine after years of ownership and years of scratches/dents/blemishes ill become less obsessive some things will be out of my control though.

I am kinda worried about the negative/dangerous attention this car could receive. The Emira is absolutely GORGEOUS and looks like it cost 3x more than it actually does putting a huge target on your back. im also getting it in red which certainly doesnt help. I am worried about being aggressively...

iv rewatched this video at least 10 times now. its pretty much the best video/audio example of a Emira after-market exhaust upgrade. includes drive bys too :) sadly its just the axle-back upgrade and not the 3rd cat delete as well

well thats super disappointing. I was fully expecting to remove them but now its going to be way harder

where did you go for the carbon fiber? how much was it?

HYPE it sure is nice getting good news

but why would it be open more often in sport compared to track? that seems backwards?

I remember reading this years ago and being confused. even based on the exact words the only difference between the two sound wise is "open at idle +200rpm" what does that even mean?

there was some testing in here about sport vs track exahust sound and at least from that one person, they couldnt discern a difference. do we really not have a definitive answer to this? surly there is some mechanical specs out there that would describe exactly whats going on its weird we dont...

I think the Emeya looks sick. its now my fav car in that category

the only lip spoiler example iv seen is this. its AI/CGI of course so kinda useless, but maybe it could work, tho id want a smaller one

it sure is hard to visualize how it would look with that hideous camouflage. thats the the point i guess im certainly going to keep my eye out on all the carbon fiber bits. I like adding them to my cars. im more of a trunk lip guy than a wing guy but I wonder how that would look when the Emira...

I actually like how it looks 🤷‍♂️ im only interesting in buying sports cars tho

can you link the source for this info?

similar situation for me. I live in Austin but made my deposit with the Dallas location. I didnt get any sketchy option to pay extra to jump the line but I did get the impression they didnt care at all about me. I called them 3+ times trying to give them money for a deposit but they wouldnt...
