USA/Canada Delivery Thread

Saw a Magma today on display at the La Jolla Concourse D'Elegance. Ive stared at so many pics of this car for the last 2 1/2 years. But it really is true the pics dont do it full justice. It's gorgeous in person. It was next to a $400K Ferrari and got just as much attention.

I think one of the big advantages the Emira has is there's nothing on it that's gimmicky. Every shape, line, form is not just functional, it's sculptured to be purely functional. No gimmicky transformer robot shapes, jagged edges, unnecessary fake lines, etc. The shape isn't narcissistic, it's pure. It's a naturally beautiful car, regardless of cost or name which is why it holds up so well visually against cars that cost a lot more with big status names.

Yup. I still think it looks like a modern Dino.

That's the best comparison I've heard yet!

Who here is still waiting for an update or delivery of their cars that were on the 3/29 vessel?
Three weeks since that ship unloaded and Lotus Philly received just four cars. FOUR!!
And has no update from their "Lotus rep" as to when or where the rest of the cars are!
What exactly does a Lotus Rep do? It seems like a similar job to a toll taker in the EZPass lane. Where do I apply?

🤬

Mine showed up just over a week ago. I’m getting PPF done now, picking up Friday. As I recall, it was on the 3/29 ship.

it's like they didn't expect/plan for hundreds of Emiras to actually show up or something seems like 6 at a time on trucks, painful.

They shipped around 60 Canadian that hit dealers a month ago - a lot of FE2s, while many FE1s remain missing. Last week 6 more cars arrived in Canada, 1 per dealership (Also FE2).

Not sure whether all 6 cars were sent on this trek from Halifax to Vancouver on 1 transport or individual ones 🤡.

They’re here! My Seneca Blue car arrived at Lotus of Pittsburgh this morning along with my friend’s DV (parked beside it). My car was on the 4/7 boat and his on the 3/29 boat. I can’t believe I’m finally looking at them. Planning to take delivery sometime next week.

The truth may be that they just Netflix and chill. Don't get me wrong, they do check their emails and will pick a favorite email address to reply every week to meet KPI (reply to customers at least once a week).

Looks great! I asked my dealer not to attach the front plate, though it’s mandatory in my state. I don’t want the bumper drilled. I’m hoping a better solution comes along in the aftermarket.

Make them sign a letter saying if they drill the bumper they owe you $5k to get their attention.

This is the way.

Front license plate mount?

Stay tuned here for pictures of them fitted up. We should have them ready to ship next week. GRP No-Drill Front Plate Mount for Emira Hey Greg! The plate mount is listed as special order and looks like we can place orders. We good to go?

60 Canadian Emiras... How many American Emiras is that? 🤣

J/K. It's zero.

I’d happily take an American Emira, our useless free gift (since none of us got any package they e-mailed us about) appears to be the French language stickers/pamphlets thrown in when we get our car ”soon”.

V6 automatic are supposed to begin arriving this summer. Has anyone confirmed their spec for an automatic?

 

[ajbucolo]

Taking delivery of my Emira tomorrow - was on the 3/29 boat, the dealer just completed PPF on it, and it's finally ready. Very excited!

 

[Racer X]

James from Throttle House hasn’t been on in a long time. Wonder if his (their) Emira has hit….

I put my deposit in for the V6 auto back in Oct of 23. No news yet

Nope, they’re pretty far back in line at Calgary from what I’ve heard…unless a dealer gives them an earlier cancelled allocation.

They likely wouldn’t have got an FE so probably waiting on base.
