I wouldn't doubt it. Lotus of North Jersey got 42 or something like that.

FWIW, Lotus NJ has been great for me to deal with. I'm in the 1.0 FE group.

Well 3 separate boat did leave for the US over the weekend and there were reports of 100s of U.S. model sitting in the factory lot from varies people that did the factory tour near the end of Oct but no one believes them.

Oh. before anyone say CARB. I don't think Lotus will put 100s of them on boats only have to pay port storage fees when they arrive. Afterall multiple boats leaves for the U.S. every week.

It is quite possible that Lotus releases the cars to the dealers before CARB certification…on the condition that no cars are delivered to customers until certified compliant.

They can't as they cannot control if those car were then sold to non CARB state by Flippers. So, basically they have to be held in port storage paying storage fee until CARB approval.

Actually, I would not be surprised the port charges something similar

I am sure that they do, and Lotus is going to be footing the bill lol.

Hey, just found this on a diffrent Emira Forum…If this is correct may you need to wait until next year

 

[Zayex]

Petrol vibes is correct. They're having a black Friday sell now. The size i got is Medium and regular type. Took about 2 weeks total so not the typical.....soon. Actually was soon.

I just bought mine, thanks

That was old news a couple weeks ago, 3 more boats just left over the weekend. and should hit dock before the end of the month so someone should be able to get ahold of the shipping manifest soon.

I love you thinking on this lol

I emailed my dealer earlier to see if there was a possibility of me getting my car on Black Friday.
He answered and said there is a good possibility it may happen
Then got a call around 4 pm to say my Evora will be ready Friday around noon

I don't believe in coincidences. The job posting signifies that something changed. Either they received CARB cert or it was rejected in the days leading up to 11/16. They might have previously wanted to hire someone, either in addition to or to replace who they had/have, but there was a a catalyst event to trigger this job posting right before the holidays rather than wait for Jan/Feb.

60 sounds right, maybe a few more, I was originally #84 on their list and snuck into a FE 1.0 at the very end (spec submitted may 2022) bc of cancelations

Very sneaky...

I purchased also from Naples motorsports. I’m on the first 1.0 of deliveries. I just sent over some of these screen shots to the manager to confirm. I have not heard anything from any reps over there. When I get a reply I will send screen with confirmation either way it goes

 

[spiorro]

Patricia is the manager over there so I’m not sure who got this info that lotus Naples had a confirmed 60 ships. I don’t believe it to be accurate without a screen shot. Here my communication. Cheers
