USA/Canada Delivery Thread

[R35_J]

Slightly related, but has anyone inquired about loan rates from Santander? Are they offering a lower rate than the national average? The best I've gotten so far is 6.25% APR from my CU, which I think is the best that I can get given the national average. Curious if they can offer any better given they aren't a US bank and could potentially (IDK, I'm no finance guy) be unaffected by rates set by the fed.

BofA quoted me 5.69 last week.

 

[R35_J]

Agree, PenFed and Navy Federal offer 4.54% for 36 months, 4.99% up to 60 months, 5.29% for 72 months. Very competitive.

I'm not sure PenFed is offering those rates anymore, rates went up about 3 weeks ago.

These have been pen feds rate for a little while. The 4.X rates are from navy federal(but you have to have someone in the armed services to be able to join)

I asked Navy Federal and they offered 8%

Were you going for a particularly long payoff? This is what they are showing as today's rates:

Got the call from Tom - my car's arrived! Won't be picking up for a couple weeks but mine is DV over tan and black calipers.

Are others taking the PPF (Lotus Guard) option from Boardwalk?

Congrats! Just curious, Is there a max timeline dealer gives you to pick up the car?

Just tell them you'll be in to pick it up 'soon'...(had to)

 

[I.am.Duke]

Well, I am 2 weeks in and the car seems to vary between “totally awesome”, and “totally ridiculously awesome”. I drive it as my daily to and from the office plus errands, and it works great for this purpose. Plus Max our dog is very approving as well. What a thrill. Hope everyone waiting gets to experience this soon. And apologies for the crappy photos, I am not much of a photographer.

Does anyone have any info on v6 auto production?
- Dealership is hopeful for a July delivery, but facebook keyboard warriors say not until 2025.

I asked my dealer about a week ago. He said no new updates, and is still expecting them to start arriving around August to September.

Long time lurker here. This will be interesting to keep track of because I finalized my order for my FE2.0 (V6 Manual) with Boardwalk back in Jan 2024. Was told to expect my car to be delivered Jan 2025. Would Lotus start V6 auto production before V6 Manual FE are done?
