DARK VERDANT!?

[eriegz]

Has to be the best angle of the car I have seen for some reason; looks amazing. Color is also much better than expected!

Don't you start now! You're getting Magma Red, and you're gonna LIKE IT!! 😆

Needs Black pack in that pic!

If only the rear black lotus lettering could be optioned in silver with the black pack. It gets totally lost on dark colours.

Another DV photo in the sunlight.

There's absolutely no way that's the same paint as the earlier DV cars. This one is WAY brighter. I really want someone at LOG41 to ask Matt Windle about it. I'll post over in that thread.

It’s probably just the camera overexposing the ‘dark’ image. However it is in what appears to be direct sunlight.

Sure, but this one was also in direct sunlight. And seems completely different.

It’s all about the camera and how it processes the image.

That's gotta be doctored in some fashion, right? Way too different than other images.

Could be the camera (or phone), could be the software in the phone, but I think the overabundance of hashtags is messing with the sun.

Not to that level... and though your hand edit of that image is lovely, it doesn't reflect the kind of default correction that's common natively in cameras or cell phones. Yes they all have a particular style or tone signature, but they aren't punching up the color and contrast by 30%. It's just not the same thing.

With you on this @Porter. If it truly looked like that photo I would have stayed with DV.

If that's the way mine looks when it comes out of the transport trailer, I'll be over the moon. I'm okay even with the darker look we've seen, but if that's an adjustment, that's gorgeous.

Are there any other Upper Black Pack and DV deposit holders on here, or am I the only sucker to do it? Haha

I am DV with BP too. Ordered without seeing real DV photos. I would prefer to do away with it. I can live with it.
Ties in nicely with rear hatch/trim that is already black.

I am BP with DV. That has been my spec from the beginning. I think it will look amazing. If the car is too green, the BP will break it up. If the car is too dark, then the BP will be subtle. That's my 2 cents.

Mine is too.

Good point on the trim along with privacy glass option for me as well.

Having fun with my DV birthday present & some yellow masking tape! Now, to reattach that pesky wing mirror.

This looks similar to an Inozetec supergloss midnight green. Really a standout IMHO. Love the nearly black color with the metallic green highlites.

Dear all, today I was at the Lotus dealer where I've ordered my lotus emira (dark verdant, silver heels/calipers, tan interiors no privacy glass) to do a test drive of one of the two demo emiras they have and one is with tan interiors, black wheels, red callipers privacy glass and..dark verdant!!! I'd like to share pictures/video with you.

On one note I'd like to point out that I really really like the color which could look lighter or darker therefore looks differently according to the light conditions.

Hope you like the pics
