The PUN here. Anybody else see that? Oh man I love puns! Ah!

The golf course. A lot more often. :)

A golf cart. With a radio now too!

Dealer has let me know they’re giving me a full refund of the deposit. Good people.

Oh yeah I have them.

I did it. I hit the cancel button. Feels like that one Seinfeld episode… Anyway, the dealership will make out because they’ll sell her for way more. I make out in a few ways. Sad but true. I’ll be on here still. Enjoying the wait like an uncle not a father. :)

Right. Pro: more owners, more cars on the road, more things to learn from those cars/drivers/mechanics… Con: jealousy, like if I can’t buy it or drive it… but a dealer can? Just sucks.

Still. Sucks.

Sucks. We can’t have the car yet but the dealers can bring them to shows… I get the pros and cons. Just sucks.

Has anyone cancelled anywhere and received their deposit back without hassle? Asking for a friend.

Europe: hit 8k kilometers on my Emira today. US: hit 8k replies on the “Dude where’s my car thread” today.

If “Soon” was a drinking game, and I had the car delivered to me before 2025, I’d get a DUI just looking at it.

I’m sorry @Lotustoronto. You’re just trying to help and I took out my frustration on your posts. I apologize. Sincerely. Sorry about that. Please continue to help as much as possible.

Now it’s 21 days or less? That’s useful.

I’m here live at Lotus HQ. Melissa works in Marketing. Hi Melissa. Hey Melissa how do you know what to send next and to which email address? Oh we just troll that one forum online and see who we can best mess with. Great work Melissa. Great work. Success. How did you all come up with the...

Got the same email. I mean identical… Dear Lotus, A tiny F’ing thing to do would be include the buyer’s spec as the picture. Maybe even list some of the options like privacy glass that we know are frustrating our buyers. I don’t know. What are there like 500? 1,000? 2,000? F’ing...

Let me know when you head over again and I’ll try to join you!

Based on their ability to; get us paint samples, pictures, reply to questions, get us the vehicles, create a fair process, etc. - Nope. No way. Haha

I read this a few times. Each time making me more upset. Here’s a driver on their SECOND Emira. Hahahahahahahahaha Think about that. From the same Lotus company… 2nd car. Hahahahahahaha Meanwhile back in the US we’ve got negative temperatures and negative exposure to even 1 production...

So it’s a Lotus… Makes 100% sense. Argh

I was told the other day… Nothing. Still. Nothing. …awkward

I'm waiting by the phone Waiting for you to call me up and tell me I'm not alone 'Cause I want my F’ing Emira I need my F’ing Emira I want my F’ing Emira Oh wait it’s F’ing 13 below on Tuesday… All the difference in the world is just a call away And I'm waiting by the phone Waiting for you to...

Sorry to see your front plate needs. :( How are you liking that ice interior? Looks gorgeous!

After seeing the recent pics of those two Seneca examples in the rain - this makes so much more sense now. The Emira back wing is a gigantic hydrating saucer for animals. We may as well put STANLEY across the back instead of LOTUS. iykyk

This is the best example of not deleted privacy glass vs not not not deleted privacy glass we’ve seen so far. Thanks! Also the black pack vs not black pack but not someone doing some of it after delivery on their own and confusing us a whole lot who then had to figure out if there was some...

So odd that we consider this like a “benefit”. Like “oh the dealer is doing so good by us keeping them plugged in”… My buddy saw my Evora. He’s like “is that like a Tesla?” I was like “no, not at all, why?” He’s like “you always have to plug it in but it’s a gas car?” I’m like “it’s a...

Aka “Breaker of Chains”…

@TomE would have an easier time separating this ~7k thread post to where each comment should go than we would figuring out how Lotus is planning to please US Customers…

Soon

Sorry. What I’m saying is “there may be a way to do this and lose less than what you’ve paid in deposits”. Big if true…

It’s a smart bet for the luxury dealer. Lotus is that “entry level luxury” and if not that, it’s definitely unique… Yeah and as a bonus it’s right there so even if the dealer is closed you can check it out. Haha

Not contractual. It would be you taking it and then selling it. Bam.

Wanted to post in here. After all this time and all these posts… I’m still in. As of now, I’ve got this 3 car garage with just 1 car in it. It’s sad. It’s not right. Considering all the other options, the only other car I’d want - I just sold… So “why not” is really my only question. The...

This post reminds me of the “always garaged” I added in the listing when I sold my Evora. I HAD to go back and add something to the effect of “…while I owned the vehicle”. Imagine taking delivery of a brand new (supposedly rare model) vehicle, knowing that it was left in the rain and either...

Here in the US we’d have some itinerary modifications. Update* due to COVID 19 your shipment will be delayed. ETA TBD Update** due to the war in the Ukraine your shipment will be delayed. ETA Soon Update*** due to the war in Israel your shipment will be delayed. ETA N/A Update**** due to...

More time to identify the buyer potentially too. Good luck!

Recap: You have a $15k deposit on the car and you’re going to take delivery of it? If yes, list out the spec and see if someone will take it at cost (net $0) to you or even a smaller loss? That would be my plan, IMHPO.

Just in time for winter snow!

The HR & Recruiting Zoom meeting had AI transcription available. Here are some highlights: Do they need to know the US Market? No. Should we just keep using fiver.com? Yes. Why do they still use miles when everyone else uses kilometers? Doesn’t matter. Ok it’s 1pm. Where should we go...

The inevitable “who is your dealer” question here. Are you using Lotus of Chicago or another dealership?
