Hello from sunny Fort Lauderdale

[StreetSpirit]

Hi all, I am Andrew, proud to call Fort Lauderdale my home.

I'm excited to be here and happy to finally have a car to become excited about! Lotus has more than nailed the package on the Emira.
My spec: Hethel yellow, black pack, v6 manual, black rims, yellow calipers, yellow stitch alcantara interior.

I've always loved a good manual (even in traffic) and also have a good history of racing from my late teens / early twenties.
I was beginning to get sad by the direction of the market and thought I wouldn't see any new good shifter with a decent engine anymore.
The emira does feel like the last hurrah! of ICE shifters.

That being said, I'm looking forward to becoming part of this community and sharing a passion for all things driving with you all.

Welcome - that was my exact spec first time around, it's changed about 1053 times since, LOL. It's a beauty.

I'm with you, it's not a "real" sports car if you don't have to shift!! Plus here in So. Cal. today a manual transmission is also an anti-theft device because none of these kids know how to row gears...

It would seem as if you are easily excited and proud....Ft Ldale makes you proud? Ive been there and I am far from proud, but instead embarrassed to say it....
okay, thats the UK sarcasms and black lack of humour out of the way, its a very nice place actually, full of nice long sandy beaches and less "miami" than Miami. I imagine there are some nice roads too, just low speed limits, but I guess you know how to get around that in places and seems as if you may be tracking anyway.
Yellow Emira in the Fl sun will be fantastic...
