Osmium Silver Lotus Emira photo thread

Do you think adding the yellow decal trim with Lotus lettering on the bottom black pack (picture from another thread) would enhance the looks but keep it classy? Sometimes I feel the lack of badging or logo is missing.

To each their own, but I don’t care for much in the way of badges or lettering.

Thanks for posting! Looks absolutely STUNNING! I’m patiently waiting here in US for mine. Recently Got one of the final allocations for a First Edition. Nov/Dec 2024 or Q1 2025 ETA, so glad I went with Osmium Silver 😍

I think that Osmium Silver highlights the design of the car better than any other choice.

Also, I think this color will age very well.

I would have gone for a louder color if there had been one that didn’t distract from the excellent design. For me, vivid red was a close second, but I ultimately decided against it because some of the subtle contours disappeared in the color.

Picked mine up today. I am very happy with Osmium. I think anyone who chose it will be happy too when they take delivery.

Congrats! Looks beautiful in silver and full black pack. Would you mind sharing what percentage window tint you’ve done in the front? And is the back tinted as well, or is it just factory privacy glass?

30% on all side glass. No factory privacy glass. Nothing on the windshield.

I didn’t do privacy or aftermarket Toni on the hatch glass because I wanted the engine to stand out. I was worried tint on the side and no tint on the hatch would look odd, but it doesn’t to me in person. The vertical vents that run alongside the hatch glass help frame the visual presentation of the engine.

Now to paint or powdercoat the supercharger cover…..

Thank you, and yes I meant side windows when I said front 🤪

Will do. It has been raining for 2 days. I am eager to wash it, and get it out in the sun for a few photos.

Looks incredible. Very tempted to abandon my FE1 pricing and 4-6 week finish line in order to get one in Osmium and black pack. But, probably won't....

Reminds me of azzuro thetys metallic, which is a pretty special color.

What color do you have ordered right now?

What color do you have ordered right now?

seneca blue. Haven't seen it in person. Based on pics I like it, but don't LOVE it. I'm really loving the Osmium, though.

But, hard to walk away from the original FE1 pricing.

FWIW, Seneca and Osmium are my 2 front runners. I've seen them both in person on the same day, and you can't go wrong either way...which makes the decision all the more difficult.

I really wanted a true “color” when I ordered. There are so many white/grey/silver/black cars on the road now. Originally, I thought I was going to order a hethel yellow with lower black pack only, just to get a pop of color. I regretted ordering the osmium until I saw it in person and took delivery on Saturday.

I liked the Seneca blue without the black pack, again, just for a burst of color.

None of these opinions probably help you make a decision, other than to say I am very happy with what I got, and for me there isn’t a color combo I’d rather have.
