    Driving shoes

    I absolutely love my Vandels. Unfortunately they seem to have gone out of business: the website has been in the state you describe for over a year now 😢.

    The state of new cars, a non Emira rant!

    On “The Importance of Loving the Daily Driver”. From 2013 - 2017 I had a Cadillac ATS. During that time there was not a trip I wasn’t excited to take nor an errand I did not want to run: the car was engaging and brilliant to drive. I didn’t own it: it was on a 4 year lease. When 2017 rolled...

    Has there been any leak regarding the Emira V6 lap time round Hethel

    I went around the track with an unofficial lap time (timed by a spectator) of 1:53.83 if that helps. In my defence, they built in an extra chicane at Chapman to prevent speeds getting too high on entry into Windsock Corner, so that probably accounts for any differences between my time and what...

    Sun shade options?

    I’ll add my vote for Snap Shades. Not cheap, but they’re Emira specific and they fit like they’re supposed to.

    USA/Canada Delivery Thread

    For what it’s worth, I was speaking with a colleague yesterday who ordered a 911 T back in January. It sat in port in Germany for 2 months before it got on a boat, and is currently “somewhere between Halifax and the dealership”. Apparently shipping hassles aren’t just a Lotus issue 🤷‍♂️.

    USA/Canada Delivery Thread

    Knowing your name, this is more deeply disturbing than most people realize… way too many Beelzebub jokes could be made here. I’ll refrain. 😈

    Income/Finances needed to justify Emira purchase?

    Fine. I had my heart set on religion, but since I’ve already unwittingly got myself into hot water in this thread I’ll defer.

    Income/Finances needed to justify Emira purchase?

    🤣🤣 You know what they say: “Buy things you don’t need with money you don’t have to impress people you don’t like.” 😜 Hopefully that’s light enough 😁

    Income/Finances needed to justify Emira purchase?

    Generally speaking, if you don’t have the cash, and are willing give up ‘x’ dollars per month in interest at anything over 4% to finance the majority of a (here in Canada) $150,000 purchase, you probably don’t have the mindset to become wealthy. Lots of people make lots of money they just...

    Income/Finances needed to justify Emira purchase?

    Probably by this point the OP has left the building… My interpretation of most of the answers here probably makes me seem like a pedantic dick (“Let’s break it down for you” would be the phrase these days in popular media), but it seems to me that generally speaking, the advice from folks such...
