I picked mine up today. I am a very, very happy fella. I was unsure about my spec when I ordered. If I recall, there were no actual photos of an osmium silver in the wild at that time. I regretted my decision, and thought many times I should have gone with vivid red. I am as pleased as I can be, as mine looked just the way I hoped it would in the flesh.

However, I could have done without the 100+ mile trip home from the dealership in torrential rain on I-35.
Congrats and enjoy!!! I was tempted by that colour as well. Cup2s in torrential 🫣. How was that?

Honestly, they did great. I left it in Tour and was not hot rodding at all, but even so it was very stable, no hydroplaning.

Not to bring up my Mustang in every other post, but driving a live rear axle, standard transmission, all rod-end link/no rubber or poly bushing suspension car with dried out worn down tires and laughable “traction control” has probably altered my perspective of what wet weather stability means.

But now you know if it leaks!

You should be thrilled - - that's gorgeous! You've got me rethinking my choice for Seneca now! 😂

Obligatory tourist picture when out and about in town :D
Picked mine up one hour before you. Saw your car sitting out front.
The black wheels do look good.
300 miles on the car so far. Lots of fun to drive. Great steering feel, decent power, and put together pretty well.

Can someone with a car check if their rear fog lights are working?

The manual says a symbol should light up on the dash when the fog light button on the stalk is pressed but when I do nothing happens. No symbol on dash, no rear fog lights.

Maybe this is disabled in US spec cars?

I've compiled all of the VINs I could find for the US Emira shipments. What's missing is that I could only find 99 of the 150 VINs for the first shipment dated 12/1/2023. So this list is incomplete. This list will be updated as new shipments arrive.

...waiting patiently for next batch of VIN's on boat scheduled to land today. 🤞🙏
