Hethel Yellow Lotus Emira Photo Thread

[digilotus]

You work fast!!! Nice work posterising the photo to get the required colour transitions, it may be needing a new right rear alloy after slamming into the rock face - but it may polish out!

Diamond cut!

Hmmmm, may be the start of a new thread with driving road experiences and recommendations shared!

Here:

An ode to roads.

For the drivers, right? I think that's everyone here. I want to know about the best road you've ever driven. Where is it? What did you drive? Which roads do you want to drive in your Emira? What if time, money and shipping your Emira were no object? I'm a bit obsessed with this. And by that I...

My local cars and coffee get together this morning. Apologies it’s a Porker but the yellow made me think of this thread. Looking forward to parking the Emira in that space next to the F40.

All from a time when travel was truly glamorous and jet-setting! (Okay, a few of these may have preceded the jet liner!)

Just eyeballing it and using my phone as a stopwatch, I got 0-60 in 4.6 seconds, but that could be off a few tenths due to the start and estimating the finish at 96 kmh. This looks like an FE spec car, so their claims of 0-60 in 4.3s seems about right.

I got 4.7s in my iPhone . But I guess with better shifting, tire temps, etc 4.3s is certainly doable.

At least this thread is finally back on topic……..

Yellow is the fastest, all other colors will be 5s+. Which gives another reason to complain to some folks out there .

Think 5s is conservative

That’s a really slow top end more than 11s from 100-200kph.

You got me curious, so I looked it up and apparently the Lotus Evora had a 100–200 kph time of 15 seconds according to this site.

The driver sucks and has geriatric slows shifts.

He is letting up on gas and NOT power shifting.

Maybe for earlier models? 15 seconds is sad as hell. My M4 Comp is in the 9s.

That has to be the 2010 spec because it only had 276 hp.
