I was kinda shocked at the amount of carbon fiber on the SUVI didn't realize the Eletre has that carbon fiber trim all around the car. It's a shame the Emira doesn't have any carbon fiber at all, especially for the price...
I guess what I don't like about the S2000 is what many people like about it. People think that S2000 has a really clear mechanical engagement feeling, while I found it just not smooth and rough. Shifting the S2000 makes me feel like peeling and eating a green banana. My gt3 mt is very smooth but it is not as mechanical or too refined. Emira shifter is more mechanical than the gt3 mt, and more refined than a S2000. Just my subjective opinion.Having shifted both the Emira and S2000 now -- ain't no way man -- the Emira is clunky and vague in comparison.
I have a Seneca Blue on order. I always loved the way the MC20 looks and wondered how close the blues were. How did the two colors compare in person? Just curious.Spotted at Velocity Honolulu. Looks just like a baby supercar next to the MC20, which is like 3x the price. And they both have V6

Early demo car? It has black pack on the roof and A pillars, but blue mirrors, and chrome lettering and exhaust tips. I sometimes wish I could have spec'd my car this way. But ordered without full black pack and can have the option later of wrapping the roof and A pillars. But hey, the MC20 looks great without a black roof so I'm good!Spotted at Velocity Honolulu.

This Emira looks to have the same front passenger brake issue that mine has. The pad or rotor near the hub isn't making contact. Mine is getting both replaced as we speak. This is now the third Emira I have seen with this.Spotted at Velocity Honolulu. Looks just like a baby supercar next to the MC20, which is like 3x the price. And they both have V6

I think that's some camera color balancing action. I think it yellowed the SUV to balance against the blue sky and blued the car to pop from the CMU. Look at the pavement in both shots. Its the same in the overall shot but different in the individualsInteresting that one is a warm grey and the other is a cool grey.
is it visually obvious or do you notice something when you drive?This Emira looks to have the same front passenger brake issue that mine has. The pad or rotor near the hub isn't making contact. Mine is getting both replaced as we speak. This is now the third Emira I have seen with this.
if that's from the 3/29 shipment, two weeks from port to across the US ain't bad.I heard that the first batch of deliveries for Galpin orders were unloaded today.

Wish I loved the look of the Eletre. I don't. Hoping they make a smaller, better looking model around size of Range Rover EvoqueSpotted at Auto Europe, Detroit Michigan

I'm OK with the size, but somewhere there are Pontiac Aztec owners sayin' "hey, look at that!"Wish I loved the look of the Eletre. I don't. Hoping they make a smaller, better looking model around size of Range Rover Evoque
They may look similar at first glance but still very different. The blue on the MC20 is deeper and stronger and more metallic. The Seneca Blue is deeper than I expected too.I have a Seneca Blue on order. I always loved the way the MC20 looks and wondered how close the blues were. How did the two colors compare in person?

Not sure how it was speced this way. But it has a window sticker showing FE1.0 prices.Early demo car? It has black pack on the roof and A pillars, but blue mirrors, and chrome lettering and exhaust tips. I sometimes wish I could have spec'd my car this way. But ordered without full black pack and can have the option later of wrapping the roof and A pillars. But hey, the MC20 looks great without a black roof so I'm good!
How can you tell this one has the brake issue? Seems normal to meThis Emira looks to have the same front passenger brake issue that mine has. The pad or rotor near the hub isn't making contact. Mine is getting both replaced as we speak. This is now the third Emira I have seen with this.
Looks like maybe a non-black pack car with a wrapped or color-ppf'd roof.Early demo car? It has black pack on the roof and A pillars, but blue mirrors, and chrome lettering and exhaust tips.

Yes, my camera phone is a OnePlus11 and I really don't like it's auto color correct and HDR. Both gray colors looked identical in person.I think that's some camera color balancing action.
