USA/Canada Delivery Thread

Under the image on the website it says,“Precise data and chart data points are only available to paid subscribers,” so I don’t know that we can read into that chart too much. Take a look at Nova’s spreadsheet and you can see the number of cars in each shipment; he’s done a great job of documenting the shipments.

@Nova is definitely our rock star of shipment tracking! Ah the thrill of finally seeing your VIN on his list and on an actual ship headed across the Atlantic. Priceless! Thanks @Nova

Just for grins I took the current data from Nova's spreadsheet, here are the totals by year (to date).

Exciting stuff. Where is your dealer located and do you know of all Emiras go through the same sea port in Maryland?

 

[UCLAFC]

Dealer is Eurocar in Socal.
Yeah looks like Baltimore is the only port they come from, prob why it’ll take a while to come in. Progress at least.

My Eurocar pickup was clean, no issues. Make sure they give you your trickle charger though (check the sticker when you get there to confirm this is still included). Congrats, your wait is almost over!

I wonder if the trickle charger was just a FE thing. Would be nice if it came with base models also. Anyone who’s taken delivery of a base model know if cars come with the trickle charger?

I have not taken delivery yet, but the window sticker does list a "battery maintainer."

Sorry if this has been asked and answered but I haven't been following the thread lately....

Is Lotus shipping cars to the USA or not? I've heard mixed messages with Lotus' response to the the Tariff stupidity.

Looks like they restarted since tariffs. One shipment in July and one in August from what I know so far. If you look at Novas signature, you can see all shipments that have come over to date. Just waiting to see my vin on the next shipment, fingers crossed.

The trickle charger does come with the car, no matter what edition you buy.

Galpin did not give me a trickle charger even though it was listed on the sticker when they shipped the car to me in Texas. I even asked about it and they said it was not included. I don’t really care since I already have a better trickle charger anyway but the audacity to just flat out lie when it’s on the manufacturer sticker is off putting.

You were supposed to. I ordered a non-first edition, and asked them last week if a trickle charger is coming with it, and dealer said yes, all Emira's come with a trickle charger. At least you have a better after market one. I may do the same once I see the Lotus trickle charger in person.

There are some pictures of the charger in this thread, and the Deltran part numbers.
