    Any other young buyers?

    I ordered mine ~600 days ago! Lol. Soon after I ordered, I lost all my 'play money' in the crypto crash; Have taken until now to get back to where I can pay for it again. Given all the delays, I guess it did not matter as much in the end, and all that stress in the middle was just in vain XD. I...

    No regrets on reversing my position

    Haha well, it's literally my last cent. Cannot afford the car anymore, when placed my order it was around 25% of my portfolio value. Now it's right below 100% of my portfolio. Guess I will have to work up the money and pay for it, maybe there will be a special edition when I have done that.

    Different spec. Emira Safety Car for BGT at Silverstone this weekend

    The seats are made by Lear i was told on the tour. "It's does not make sense for us to make seats when they better and cheaper" well so far that does not seem to be the case. The handmade seats they did for their old models are really nice.

    Different spec. Emira Safety Car for BGT at Silverstone this weekend

    On my factory tour the leather looked saggy like that in one car i looked into. But never asked if this was acceptable to them or not. The guide did mention the interior needs to be perfect before they release pictures, "people will complain about the slightest thing if we relase pictures...

    DARK VERDANT!?

    I went to the factory in Hethel hoping to see the Dark Verdant car. Was the only one I did not see, they said they had one but did not know where it was at the time XD. The test driver said that it was closer to British racing green than black. Was really hoping to be able to make up my mind...

    My trip to Hethel

    Haha seems more mad to put down 100k on a car you never seen XD. Talked to lotus and they said you can sit in and touch the car and materials on the tour :)

    My trip to Hethel

    I have also booked a tour of the factory now! Very nice, never seen the car in the flesh. @3MIRA is there a place where one can view and sit in a show car and view the options on sight? Thinking if i should arrive early for my tour and spend some time in the showroom (if they have). Says not...

    DARK VERDANT!?

    This was my dream, classy, Aston martin vibe. But the DV in the current configurator does not show the lines of the Emira that well in my opinion. I don't have any images. If it looks like this I want it. But people say it's over-exposed.

    DARK VERDANT!?

    Nothing new under the sun? Have switched from DV for now, what I have seen has been too dark. But if it's more green in reality I will switch back.

    DARK VERDANT!?

    I found this image in another thread but that is the only image i have seen. And people are saying that it's not a true representation because the phone is trying to do an HDR photo or something. I really don't want it to be too dark, this looks good to me. Original post here...

    Mr Grumpy Pants

    Ohh I misread this! You are saying I DON'T have to lock in my spec yet! Here I am spending the weekend trying to find pictures of Dark Verdant that do not appear to be all that green anymore in the configurator. Maybe I have more time then. I will call them Monday instead and see if we just have...

    Mr Grumpy Pants

    Thank you! I will send in my spec Monday and hope for no fuss.

    I will, but how can one even have an order without a spec?

    Mr Grumpy Pants

    Thanks, you have given me a window to let off some steam too. The salesperson I'm in contact with has never sent a single email to me, I keep prodding them. Today when I emailed about something and he said that it might be too late for me to change my spec and decide any options. HE HAS NEVER...

    Only allowed to choose body-color

    @Leonard haha I was actually not too displeased when I could only choose body color. At least then I don't have to go through an existential crisis choosing black-pack or not or what interior to have XD but i guess that will be back on at a later date now! @TomE Hmm okay, I wonder why Lotus...

    Only allowed to choose body-color

    @Bilbao-Emira Thank you very much for taking the time to give that detailed answer. > If when they request us to choose between FE V6 or 4cyl AMG, we opt for AMG, we will not be able to expect delivery until 2023. This I need to double-check with them, I was told I could have an AMG in 2022...

    Only allowed to choose body-color

    Thanks all for the answers, I will try to communicate with lotus UK, see if they have answers. When talking to the Bilbao dealer they explicitly told me that I could only choose the color and that the rest would be"something special". I have also asked if there is a date where I can come to...

    Only allowed to choose body-color

    Hello, all nice to be joining the forums! I have put down a 15 000 euro deposit with Lotus in Bilbao, Spain. They have told me that the only thing I can configure on the car is the body color and engine. No black pack, no wheel options, no interior, etc. Does anyone else have the same...
