I know North America is on a high due to CARB, but I wanted to share this article. The more you read the crazier it gets. Examples of going after companies to private citizens. https://theautowire.com/2024/03/03/the-epa-is-targeting-aftermarket-car-modifications/

The USA/Canada Delivery Thread is getting a lot of work! I am hoping to divert people's attention for a bit! If you could have any car, what would you get? HOWEVER, You can't flip the car, you MUST drive it, use it, park it in the same way you plan to use the Emira (DD, track, etc). And yes...

I don't think I have seen a list put together like this. I guess EVs are coming. The Nissan Maxima surpised me. https://www.yahoo.com/autos/cars-being-discontinued-2024-beyond-221800852.html?guccounter=1

I know they probably can't modify this to fit an Emira but I just wanted to share this transmission with my fellow enthusiasts. How cool would this be in any car. Anyone have a car with something like this installed? Skip to 2:30 if you just want to see it shift.

Saw this online and thought it was interesting and wanted to share. https://www.motor1.com/news/677033/2026-aston-martin-ev-will-use-pirelli-cyber-tires/amp/

Very excited that I had an allocation for a Dark Horse and submitted an order yesterday! No delivery date but I expect this year. My spec was Blue Ember, 6 Speed, Recaro Seats, Handling Package. Therefore I am now hoping my Emira slows down a little. Would like the Emira of Q1 2025. These...

Interested to see who is on the cusp of a 2.0, if they plan to buy, what color they may want, and most important of all when does anyone think dealers will start contacting people? (One thread said about 3 weeks from when they announced the 2.0.

Hoping for a speedy recovery. Would love to see him review the Emira. https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/16/entertainment/jay-leno-recovery/index.html

This car is background for the Smoking Tire youtube channel. This is all of the car that shows. What is this? I can't make out the name on the back.

This was discussed in some very old threads on this forum. However, I don't really remember this being talked about for the USA, only Europe. Maybe California. First EVs and now this. When I saw this the wind just got knocked out of me. However, maybe one bright spot in the article, for...

Welp, the clock is winding down and soon the conversation will be switching to just cars. I love the energy the new people bring to the forum. Whether you are new or old, here are my Top 8 posts of all time. Ain't no logic here, I just liked these. Post your favorite! I can't say how many...

This doesn't have anything to do with comparisons or the Emira. I just thought this was a good video and wanted to share it with other car enthusiasts. When you get some time at night or the weekend have a look. The title is misleading, it actually is a video speaking very well about Porsche.

I know this has been discussed extensively but the argument has been that no car manufacturer would have less power on a new model. In reading up about the new 2024 Mustang GT launch I learned that the 2022 Mustang was detuned compared to the 2021 and had less horsepower. TomE always comments...

This isn't Lotus Emira Talk but the Off Topic category won't let me make a poll. So not your IDEAL weekend that you can dream up, I am asking about your regular weekend driving habits and when you are satisfied. We all have busy lives and stuff going on, so when you get in your car on the...

When I go back and watch all of Lotus's videos they keep talking about daily driving the Emira. It seems as though they really want to see these cars on the road and not just on weekends and on tracks. I am wondering if after the reviews if people are considering daily driving their Emira or...

Just got this email, looks like we have a winner!

I keep hearing this statement, "Lotus held the I4 to 360HP as to not upstage the V6 in markets where they are both present." I guess I don't really understand why two different engines with the same HP but two different transmissions would be a problem or an "upstaging". Recently @digilotus...

Did my FIRST ever track day in an Evora GT. I realized though that since I am a beginner and not pushing the car to the limit, nor do I have experience tracking another car, I really don't know how good the Evora is! Here is the track: https://www.atlantamotorsportspark.com/ (Course...

I believe during one of the prototype videos I saw a screen of a G-Meter. I am interested in how people use this feature in their cars. Even if you just like to play around with it and watch, whatever, interested in how people are using these.

This is just a poll to see what are people's top priority that they would like to see covered/addressed in the reviews coming out this week (I think this week!). I only allowed for 1 vote. If you want to add a category just post it and I will update poll.

Please let me know if this has been posted. It's starting to look like I will have all Lotus cars in the near future right after I win the lottery. Lotus 132, Emira, and the MR2 Sister Car. In just a few months I have gone from never ever will I want an EV... to bring them on. Why not...

I haven't had the opportunity to really drive a lot of cars. I have never driven a DCT. I just wanted to hear from forum members why they like them. I understand if you are trying to set lap times you want the fastest shift as possible. But just kickin around back roads, what do you like...

Dear Lotus, uhhh, I mean other forum members. Cast your vote if you would like side sill lettering (LOTUS) on your Emira. Also indicate if your would change your spec to get a pleasing combination with the Side Sill Lettering? Thanks to @CanadianEmira for posting this picture.

This is a cartoon and I am wondering if this is actually how the DCWs will look in motion. I think it's cool, especially if this is how the actual wheels will look moving. Start at 5:53 for the wheels.

I was just wondering if anybody was going Seneca Blue, Diamond Cut Wheels, Yellow Calipers and Black Pack. Essentially, has anyone chosen to go with the configuration? I'd have to say, the thought did cross my mind the more that I looked at it but it isn't my spec.

I just assume everyone is catching all the new content that comes out on the Emira. But just in case, here is the latest one. This is an exciting time to be a car enthusiast. Seems like all brands are going for broke on their last ICEs. And please, by all means, current and former Lotus...

I have been searching everywhere on this forum and the internet for a photo of the visible linkage with the manual. Please post a photo if you have one I would love to see how it looks.

As with most everybody on this forum I am 24/7 Emira. I watched this video which is interesting because it talks about putting deposits on cars among a lot of other things. As I was watching and I saw the date of the video, I said to myself, "If he doesn't mention the Emira, this is hogwash!"...

Fell in love with Lotus watching James Bond For Your Eyes Only and the white and brown Esprits. I have never seen a Lotus on the street but tonight an Evora GT pulled out behind me. I then got behind him. That engine sound is incredible! Oddly I believe I saw a Green Evora last week but...

Ok, I know this is a very specific thread! I was just wondering if anyone has driven a WRX STI and can compare the hydraulic steering in a Lotus to the STI. I am familiar with STI's and love their steering but it's the only car I have ever driven with hydraulic steering and was wondering if...

I have been looking at all pics I can find and I can't figure out what this is behind the windows. Some pics even seem like there is a number there. Is it just part of the styling or something else? See arrow pointing to it below.
