My guess is a FE1.0 cancellation they're trying to backfill with someone in the FE2.0 queue with the same spec, so they can sell the old msrp stock at new FE2.0 msrp.That but really hard to believe something like that can be overlooked by a dealer. What's more likely is a planned tactic to get as much money as possible.
Hey Nitro I have the same spec ordered with Galpin. How has your experience been to date from sales? Jack and Moe have been the two I have been working and so far so good. I'm sorry this happened what an unwelcomed first impression.Went to see my car at Galpin before pre delivery inspection. We noticed serious damage on the roof, likely scraped against something metal during transport. Sales rep said it will be repainted of course. Otherwise the car looked happy, i was worried the other Emiras would pick on her but they all seemed to get along. Spec is Vivid red over tan.

Thanks for that update! Turnaround time at the port (and having to be shipped from NJ to Baltimore for PDI) definitely disappointing though. Do you know if Eurocar is shipping closed truck from Baltimore?Received a call from my salesman at Lotus of Orange County (Eurocar) this morning (5/3). He said my car (FE 2.0 Osmium/Ice Grey) is through PDI in Baltimore and ready to be shipped to the dealer. The car will depart when 5 more cars are ready to ship (to the same dealer). He said typically 6-7 days to get here once on the road. They will do the dealer PDI and detail the car for delivery. Nova's spreadsheet had my car in NJ on 4/7 so that might give a sense of turnaround time at Baltimore although the whole first in/ last out lottery probably has a lot to do with turnaround times. Original deposit was 7/15/2022. Was 39th or so inline at Eurocar and missed out on their first and second allocations. Was finally offered a 2.0 build which was confirmed on 8/29/2023. Wasn't expecting the car ahead of others in front of me but I put this down to the last in/first out approach to storage at Hethel, shipping and PDI. I certainly haven't been pestering them for updates (that they wouldn't have anyways.) He shared that they have been checking before delivery for HVAC operation/brake discs/pads based on issues mentioned here in the forum and that the first six cars delivered have had no issues thus far (of course, it's been not much more than two weeks). I asked for a quote for full PPF and ceramic on the wheels/brake calipers and fiddly bits that would be difficult to wrap (side and rear vents) and he said he would reach out for a quote. They work with Elite Clear Bra in Huntington Beach and if you just want the front clip they typically come to the dealership to install but if they are going to wrap the whole car they do it in their shop. They appear to use EXPEL. Not sure if they can source STEK but will ask once I have their quote. They will be sending an invoice so I can complete my financing (probably Navy Federal Credit Union) and I told him I was planning for around $117k including freight and sales tax-7.75% here in OC/registration fees and he said that sounded about right to him. Will update if there are any surprises. Have to give Zach credit. He has called whenever he had something useful to share (three times - once to offer the 2.0 build, once to say my car was on a boat and share a VIN and the call this morning with a shipping update). Given the way Lotus seems to operate, I can't ask for more than that.
I do not know. I thought we had another member take delivery from them last week (Nimbus/red?). Perhaps they know.Thanks for that update!

I put my deposit with Zach as well. That would be great if you can report back costs on ppf, ceramic wheels calipers, maintenance and warranty packages. Etc. or even what finance rates he’s offering.

Thanks! Will update when I can. Traveling for work next week...I put my deposit with Zach as well. That would be great if you can report back costs on ppf, ceramic wheels calipers, maintenance and warranty packages. Etc. or even what finance rates he’s offering. Congrats btw!!!
Same exact thing happened to me! They confirmed no ADM for the 2.0 when I submitted the build sheet. Now that it's delivered they're saying it's a 1.0... but the MSRP matches more the 2.0? A bit all over the place 🙄
Technically you can do that but I didn't notice any meaningful difference going that route. Once you have the milltek, just leave it full open when you turn it off and your starts are PLENTY loud I have to remember to put it back into OEM when I pull into the driveway or I risk waking up my infant from starting in the garage.Is it possible to start the US-spec Emira in track mode? Thought I remember reading on here that you can start in track mode by first holding the mode select for 5 seconds or something like that.
it only has an MSRP from which you can deduct if it’s FE1.0 or FE2.0.Aren't the dealers providing the Monroney "sticker" that states the price and what you're getting? Is FE1.0 or FE2.0 listed on there?
They’re all on the “Emira Issues” threadCONGRATS to everyone who's finally gotten their cars! Hard to believe it's been almost 3 years. I'm excited to hear all of your experiences going forward!
Not gonna touch that one....🤣They’re all on the Emira Issues” thread
I picked mine up yesterday from the same dealership as well (Lotus of NJ)! What time were you there? I got home after 10pm last night.
