  1. Atlantis Blue Emira

    Thank you McLaren, was a fun outing and the Emira handled it like a champ 😉

    Great outing on the back roads near Oklahoma. Appreciate being invited by McLaren Dallas to test out if the Emira could hang with the big boys, and in my opinion (and my wife confirmed in the passenger seat), the Lotus did NOT disappoint! It was the only stick shift, had less power but had...

    Cruise control speedometer vs Google maps speedometer don’t match so which is correct?

    Anyone encounter this when they are on cruise control? (I have only used it twice as I like to drive the manual, but was cruising in touring trying to get my mpg to 20 mpg and failed 🤣) The dash speedometer shows one speed while google maps shows usually 2 to 4 mph less. Depends on speed...

    What is this sound after you drive and park, coming from the engine?

    What is this sound coming from the engine Bay Area? First time I have heard this sound after driving about 20 miles (usual routine a couple times per week), normal driving (well mostly in track mode, took rpm up to 5-6k a couple of times, with 15 miles freeway stop and go and 5 miles in...

    Theory 1 Thoughts?

    Well, I was surprised by the reveal on 9.16.24 of the Theory 1 by Lotus. Obviously a concept car. Thoughts? Who really thinks this will become a production car? Since they started the name with a “T” in theory, doubt it gets produced as all cars historically start with an “E”. Maybe they will...

    Why are Rotors not completely round?

    Silly question, but was cleaning my Emira and noticed the rotors are NOT completely round. Can someone explain this to me from a physics standpoint (or like I was in 7th grade)?

    Lotus Emira battery dies while driving or can it be the alternator?

    Hit 1,000 miles yesterday and right after I stopped at a store and restarted the car I get this message (pic below). Drove home, put on battery tender for 6 hours and went out at night. Battery error gone. Valet comes in to find me at restaurant and said my car doesn’t start (initially thought...

    Window(s) malfunction or doesn't want to roll all the way down?

    I rolled down the windows for the 1st time in 500 miles (wanted to keep the new car scent fresh :), however just noticed the passenger window does NOT go all the way down and peaks its head above where you would rest your arm (see inside photo from driver seat, and outside photos when parked)...

    Clutch malfunction and Gearbox can't shift into gear

    The Video explains it all, but some background. Didn't drive car for 2 weeks, had it on battery charge (was 100% and light green), doors locked. Come back and cold started, and clutch stayed stuck on the floorboard, and had to pull it back with my foot. On cold start, the car went red line...

    Does the Emira come with standard Ceramic brakes?

    Anyone know if the Emira comes with Ceramic brakes standard? If they want this car to compete on a track with a Porsche, you would think they would offer Ceramic brakes, so either it is standard and I can't find the answer, or it is NOT an option and will be an option in later models.
