#2 So reliable it could handle 7200 RPMs? :)

My wife really loves induction noise in a car. It was one of the main selling points when we drove the Emira the first time. We have a jaguar F type R, so we already have an “exhaust car”. What are some of the ways to enhance or amplify the induction sounds in the cabin? Sorry if this is a...

I really like the forged carbon spoiler by Aerie. Does anybody know if the other carbon exterior add-ons can also be had in forged. Seems like it would be weird to mix that with a herringbone side skirt or front splitter. It was confusing from their website. Are there any other companies doing...

I know there are some amazing car collections held by the members of this forum. Please show us a picture of what you got, explain why you chose what you did, and how the Emira fits into it.

https://maps.app.goo.gl/EDfAyWeiYKgVgLM96?g_st=ic Just wanted to highlight an amazing road I drove this week. Highway 89 in Arizona from Prescott to Congress is the stuff of Lotus fever dreams. If you’re in the south west might be one to tackle! You can also take the road over Jerome and up...

Needing to put my build code in and I am very interested in Hethel Yellow with the black pack over tan leather. Does anyone have any photos of this combination or without black pack? Any thoughts? Seems like a way to keep it fun but also classy.

I just picked this up a couple of weeks ago to keep me smiling while I wait on a North America Emira. Is it acceptable?

Some thing that seems to bring up quite a bit of grumbling in these spaces is the fact that Lotus chose to lower the horsepower and redline figures. It looks like the figures achieved in the Evora 430 were obtained by recalibrated ignition, fuel and camshaft mapping. My question is were the...

I’d go Nimbus>zinc>shadow

How do you feel about the sound of a supercharger?

One of the consistent criticisms is that the engine cuts off quicker than competitor engines and you lose the drama of that last thousand RPMs. Can anyone enlighten me on why lotus couldn’t run it up higher with this power unit?

I know this is just a fanboy pipe dream but wouldn’t it be fantastic? Reunite the Andretti name and the history of the type 79/JPS with Lotus again. It just makes too much sense. You have a competent racing team that is begging to get into F1. Some of the media reports say they want to take...

Is the Lotus Emira: 1.) The greatest sports car bargain based on its exceptionally attractive packaging, incredible handling and steering, and rarity on par with Ferraris, Maserati‘s, and Lamborghinis costing 3 to 4 times the price? 2.) A complete rip off because Toyota Supras, Nissan Z‘s, and...

Since apparently we have some time to kill on our hands and there seems to be some really smart (and passionate) folks on this message board I was curious about people’s thoughts on the relative pluses and minuses of a V-6 (say somebody was thinking about a Nissan Z ), versus a flat six (maybe a...

Play along with me :) Car journalist review blinded to V6 engine source but given specifications: “ The V6 has everything you want in a modern engine: aluminum, DOHC , four valves per cylinder with Variable valve timing on the induction and exhaust. To boot it has Japanese origins with...

For me: 1.) Vivid Green Metallic 2.) Black with Gold wheels (JPS’esq but I do worry a black car doesn’t do justice to the Emira’s figure and vents) 3.) Private parts pink (credit Off the Shelf 😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥)

I spoke to a salesman at a large dealership. He answered a few of my questions. I asked about vivid green being an option on the base. He said they are coming out with a similar green that will be slightly lighter. He said the base configurator will be open at the end of July. I talked about...
