Yeah, you might void the warranty and good question for Chevy. You might be ok with high performance air filter and the AWE exhaust, and it wouldn't cost much for the air filter change to find out. From my experiences with my 2004 E46 M3 and current 2018 718 Cayman even an aftermarket...

Well, they must be able to recommend someone to you who does. I can't imagine putting an exhaust system like that on a C8 without reworking the air intake. You've got plenty of air intake options under 1K if you're seriously considering getting the car. You might consider giving someone like...

That AWE exhaust sounds incredible and needless to say increases the performance. Do they have anything for the intake?

I think perhaps "Proper" would be the better word use here.

This is a 2016 488 GTB in my vicinity here in NWFL land that is currently for sale. The tires are 245/35 20's up front and 305/30 20's in rear. Emira will have same size up front and 295/30 20's in rear. I'd like to think we'll be fine with our Emira ride heights especially that I personally...

Things were a lot different back in 2019, a whole lot different and my BMW buying experience on a 2021 X3M in early 2021 was a whole lot different than what you have described in 2019 or my prior BMW buying experiences on 2 other new BMW's from the same dealer in the past. Did I blame BMW at the...

You bet! You also have some great country roads in the UK as well. Perfect the Emira! Looking forward you your review of your forthcoming test drive. (y)

I originally contacted WI on 7/16/21 and finalized my Emira deposit the next day...I will say that I really like my salesman there a lot, even since the get go and that hasn't changed. But I have not always gotten accurate information on the car itself including the DC wheels and will leave it...

Your UK weather this summer was making quite a few headlines here in the States and looked rather dire in some cases, hopefully things will cool off for you now as it has here just recently. Anyway, thanks for the update and continued Good Luck getting your Emira asap. I'll look for your and...

Thanks for the input Tom...I like your spec too! We get a lot of sun here in Florida so I might be onto something with the DV and the yellow calipers which will tie into the interior if I go with Alcantara and YS. You're right about the red color being stunning as the real-life pictures of it...

Yeah, well any way you slice it you're gonna have a lot of fun with your V6 6speed Emira. Each of the 2 tires Lotus has chosen for the car have their merits. I'm not gonna track mine so it's the Goodyears all the way. A lot of time went into the Goodyears and many tire compounds were tested...

Well, being that I haven't done business with them before and am like 288 miles away (but at least in FL) they asked me for a 5K non-refundable deposit, which I am comfortable with as that is it until I take delivery. I didn't get a guarantee on a FE but being #7 I was pretty confident that I...

Yeah, my 718 is nice for what it is although a little underpowered compared to its fellow 718's and my past 2004 E46 M3 but adding octane booster and fuel injector cleaner with every gas dosage helps with that quite a bit. Really makes the Sport Exhaust come to life too. Easy to drive and a lot...

Thanks Tom, it's a pretty crazy world nowadays and the delays are happening all over the industry as I'm sure you know. I'm used to it and have a couple nice vehicles with low miles to keep me going so I'll just enjoy the wait on the FE i4. Yeah, YT was all over it during the reveal...I was...

Right!

Hey Thanks! Yeah, that YT sidebar really knows what to hit you with doesn't it...Last thing I expected to see when watching a 718 video was a new Lotus (especially one that looked like a baby 488), which turned out to be a really nice surprise. I guess there are quite a few Floridians around...

Yeah Thanks, when I missed out on the V6 FE I was a little bummed for about 5 minutes. Then I figured getting a V6 Base might be a good thing whereas Lotus would potentially have some of the bugs worked out by then and also being able to spec it out the way I wanted to would be fun too. But...

Yeah Thanks, I've read a lot of your stuff...Excellent!... Not to mention the pictures, even more Excellent! Thanks for all you've done so far!

Yeah, I know having been in since the beginning last July...But, I also feel fortunate as well.

Sorry, I meant for this to show up on the intro thread.

Hey all, I've owned 7 Hypo German cars this millennium with my current 2 being a 2018 Porsche 718 Cayman and a 2021 BMW X3M. After accidently seeing the Emira Launch (while watching a 718 video) on YouTube the day after it happened and then doing a bit of casual research over the next 10 days...

FWIW, USA is Lotus largest and most important market and with the forthcoming Emira the potential is more than Huge!...Heck, I might even give up my 718 once I get my Emira i4.

Actually, a strong dollar is a very good thing for Lotus as all cars sold in the USA will be paid for in dollars and then converted to pounds...The higher the dollar goes the more pounds that go to Lotus when each car is sold in the USA. So, it really behooves Lotus to start delivering cars to...
