I'm starting to wonder that Lotus have just changed the names of their existing colours as discussed before.
Fire red = magma red
Laser blue = seneca blue?

Having seen the show car up close I can say with certainty it is nothing like Laser Blue. Much closer to Daytona Blue, but even then not exactly the same as Daytona was flat rather than metallic (I reckon the Evora above is probably Daytona). Magma is very close to Fire red though.

It was confirmed that Magma is Evora GT Fire Red, Nimbus is Evora Silver and Hethel is Evora 400 Solid Yellow.

That Evora looks absolutely stunning in that blue. I can’t for the life of me understand why the Evora split opinions about it’s looks. It’s an absolutely cracking, edgy car. Very nice indeed !!

Seneca is a new colour for the Emira. I wish it was Laser Blue, as that's the colour on my Exige and Evora and would have made colour choices a lot easier!

Other FE colours are close to previous Lotus colours. Verdant Green is very similar to Imperial/Empire Green. Shadow Grey is apparently very close to a Porsche colour and Nimbus close to a McLaren one.

I normally love a blue car . . . but Seneca is a bit too Walmart Blue for me. I just don't think it's a very "classy" colour. (duck, prepare for incoming)
