Japan - Emira Ownership (エミーラ納車とその後)

[geoffbland]

Yes. Concept, lyrics, and cover art by Gemini and exported prompt fed to Suno. Now I have some music to include in videos without worrying about copyrights!

That's pretty impressive - and kind of scary, as someone that use to play in a band and write songs, that AI can compose and play music like that. I would guess many listeners would not be able to tell the difference. I'll have to have a play with this.

Thanks for sharing all the photos in here. They look great.

This lingering cough (and associated medication) will not allow me to drive or operate machinery. My Emira hasn't moved yet this year!!! AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH

What's the difference between these and the AD09?

 

[virtualmacho]

The A052 are more track focused, and not recommended in wet conditions.

AD09

AD052

For reference Sport Cup 2

Basically all road tyres, but getting more and more track focussed (and less good in the rain).

Which do you think is better in the rain, AD052 or Cup2 ?

@virtualmacho from experience with S2000's, definitely A052s, at least full tread.

Thanks! I should try them next.

If there's standing water then neither probably - the AD09s would be better.
If it's just a little wet then sorry I have no idea. I expect a lot of it will be personal preference and the intended use of your car.
I really like how planted my Sport Cup 2s are but only when there's no standing water on the road. Equally I've never had a problem with Yokohamas and have AD08RS tyres on my Elise.

The lopsided interior wasn't as weird as I thought.

Just whizzed past a Seneca Blue with Silver wheels on R1 going from Kawasaki to Tokyo today.
