Yep! It’ll be with the meet all weekend.

It seems Hethel Yellow id the only consistent color in pictures...

 

[TomE]

That’s probably because it’s the only solid colour. The metallics vary a lot more in real life and in how they appear in photos.

And this different Hethel Yellow demo car also in the US, currently with Lotus of Western New York:

Yes, turns out we didn't get the grey car from LOG41, had this at Lotus Western NY. Sports suspension. They are pretty in person. Small, but big compared to an Elise.

Can you find out where this will be at on Monday? I’m in Los Angeles but busy through Sunday. I live in Phoenix so it’s difficult to see the car.

Looks very good without the black pack too. The entire shape of the car is nicely visible without a blackened roof.

I would add window tint to all windows and it would look even better.

I believe it’s going to Galpin next but not sure which day.

Same spec I viewed in person. Black wheels (BP too) might have more impact, but this is still a really nice looking car with the silver wheels.

This Hethel yellow is just so gorgeous! It has such a warm tone to it, not shouty and bright as racing yellow. Exactly my taste of yellow!

But I‘m still really torn between the upper black pack or lower black pack. I decided for lower black pack only, but will probably go for a wrap eventually.

Update: the car will not be at West Coast Lotus Meet concours today.

I think that color yellow with black pack and black wheels would be a second choice right behind magma with the same combination. It really is a nice yellow, and I don't usually like yellow cars.

The car will be at Lotus of Pittsburgh in Wexford, PA today and tomorrow...

This must be a different car. I've heard there are ~6 going around.

It seems Lotus have sent out lots of HY cars, without BP and silver wheels. Black wheels and BP might be the more obvious/modern choice with HY, but after seeing it in person, there is nothing wrong with the above.
