Emira Wheel Gap Discussion

The viewing angle depends on how close you are to an object. You're talking about viewing height which is not the same thing. Things at a distance look smaller than things close up. If you're standing 20 feet away and I take a picture of you, you'll look different than if you're standing 2...

Nice work Supersix, I, for one, will be steering well clear of it!

I’m on my way to Paris for work so will report back if the Rupert the Bear/racing helmet combo is en vogue with the tres chic folks #ForTheTrendsetters

I think sporting one of these with JPL colors would be "epic" as you Brits say.

Nice one! I imagine the fashionistas would be talking about Rupert Bear looking simply fabulous in a Hethel Yellow and Magma Red ensemble!

Where is this from? This scheme with Dark Verdant and gold instead of black would look great too.

These images have color filters applied. I would take what you see regarding DV with a big grain of salt here. It might not even be DV, actually. Look at the color of the asphalt.

See what it looks like with the color balance corrected slightly? I think this is a Shadow Grey car.

Same with the hero shot at the top. Looks like a Shadow Grey car to me. And that guy is wearing a dark blue windowpane suit.

Also, weirdly, somebody used selective color and killed the yellow in the center caps. I guess the contrast was too high for compatibility with the yellow buttons in their design UI so they cut the color there.

This thread has been a roller coaster ride.

It's dark Verdant!
It's been altered!
Its shadow gray!

I don't know what to think - - and I cannot fathom how Lotus can not just release a real photo and put the debate to bed.

FWIW, I have an order in for DV. I just hope it actually looks somewhat green and not just black. 😒

I saw a few DV cars whilst at the factory. It’s dark, but it is most certainly green. Looks like this when the sun hits it…😎

Do you have some more?! Full body would be awesome!

 

[digilotus]

Looking impressive in DV! I'm also hoping for some whole of car pictures. Oh and the fender orange peel needs a bit of work.

 

[mjw930]

I noticed the orange peel on the factory tour as we were able to get close to some finished panels on the racks. Haven’t said much about it but for me it could be a deal breaker. Orange peel and panel gaps were one of the things that took the shine off my C7 back in 2014, pun intended. It’s a byproduct of the damn composite panels and the water based paints. Dark panels show it the worst which is why I’m starting to lean towards Numbus.

If this is Verdant then it looks like Shadow Grey's cousin

ThIs is 100% DV according to my friend who shared it. I posted an earlier one too you may recall where you can clearly see more green in the tone of the same car. I only have one more photo, which I will share too. He has clearer photos, but was being careful not to spoil the party and show the entire car. The ones I have been given show it being dark and sometimes light , very much light dependent.

 

[ARA]

This is the other one shared with me. I'm not sure myself what to make. The orange peel does stand out, but I need to see a car close up in the flesh still. I'm still in though, love the design too much.
