Quite a lot of inaccuracies regarding Sport vs Touring Chassis. Mistakenly mentions adaptive suspension and the ability to run Sports Chassis in “Comfort” to dial it back. Also says Touring Chassis is perfect in the twisties but wallows in the straights. Confirms to me that Touring is the UK road choice.
Lotus and Caterham together........hmm
having watched that, I don't even believe he drove it and is hopelessly misinformed
Yes, you would expect someone with a deposit down as he claims would know more about the options. My main reason for posting it was really the condition of the driver's seat in such a short time. I am so glad now that I went for red leather rather than the ice grey which was an early original choice in the configuration phase.
Although as a test drive car it's had a lot of bums on that seat. My car's driver's seat will only ever grace one behind, that of my own.
The wear of the seat bolster, I am sure, is not impacted by its colour, and all bolsters as far as I am aware are leather even if the Alcantara option is selected.....its the visual element that will make the wear more obvious, if my car looks like that after 6 months they can have it back and replace it!
I have white leather in my Lincoln and I wear jeans most of the time. So yes the blue transfers to the seat but like with the rest of the car I just give it a wipe and it stays perfect. If you let it go I would imagine that blue would be more difficult to remove.
hits the limiter twice! hope it's run in already
yah, I really feel sorry for that yellow demo car!
The Supra is absolutely putting down at least 40whp and considerably more torque down than the Emira while only weighing 150 lbs more and for $40,000 USD less. The Supra is a bargain and the Lotus is far more rare with better looks and driver feel.
I'm glad I chose a darker leather color then, because I only wash my pants about once every 6 or 8 weeks. I can usually tell they need it by the crust that develops.
Wash that crust on a gentle cycle, it’s protecting your pants! Also, a soft crust is easier on the leather too.
Agree. Supra's torque hits you hard and the engine/trans combo is always on its toes. It's fun and makes you feel like you are going faster than you actually are. Evora GT feels slower, but when I look at the speedo, I am going faster than expected. Both are fun in their own way.
