Thanks for your feedback and congrats to you as you look that you're being taken care of.
Seems like you, R35_J and I placed our reservation deposits around the same time (mine was on Jan 25, 2022) and I'm afraid to say that my suspicion as I described to R35_J above is proving correct. I just completed a form on the Lotus Orlando website to indicate my interest in ordering the Emira and within minutes I got a call from them. I get a felling that I would commend that type of interest from Prestige Imports in Miami only if I were seeking to buy from them a Pagani, Lamborghini and McLaren (and I mean all 3 simultaneously). There simply so much customer $ and demand going on down here that one quickly falls in to the "peanut gallery" classification and treatment. Since leaving my deposit, I haven't once gotten a call initiated by them, on the other hand, I have called them 4 times. Sorry to vent on you like this, but I do appreciate your and R35_J's feedbacks.
