    What car is more beautiful than an Emira?

    I definitely agree with you that the 60's Vette beauty is only skin deep and it's not considered an enjoyable, comfortable or even safe ride nowadays, particularly given all the auto innovations that materialized and spoiled us in the past 50 years. Owning any such classic car has to come with...

    What car is more beautiful than an Emira?

    My favorite US design that has withstood the test of time... Oddly, I haven't liked a single Corvette model that came after this one.

    Hi @ManuelIB, Nice scenery. I was good meeting you recently in Portugal and thanks for the test ride in your Emira. It was my first experience in an i4 and it was also great sharing our accomplished mods and future plans for new ones. It was also cool to check out your auto collection. Ohh...

    How are you cleaning inside the rear bumper vents?

    I use these soft brushes (sold on Amazon) that work great in reaching deep inside the vents.

    Newbie: Considering a switch - 911 to Emira

    Hi. Looking forward to you joining us for the long term. While I didn’t necessarily trade in my 2017 991.2 CS for the Emira and did eventually end up selling it afterwards as I found myself always wanting to drive the Emira instead. Bought the 911 new, owned it for 7 yrs and never had a single...

    Emira JB4 Tuning Now Available for I4 & V6 Cars!

    Excellent, good news indeed, you can then dismiss my suggestion. I brought it up simply to explore an alternative to replacing the rear lid glass with anything that has holes, with or w/o louvers, which would invite water and debris into the engine bay. But that's just me.

    Emira JB4 Tuning Now Available for I4 & V6 Cars!

    Hmm, not sure I'd agree with that entirely, particularly with the notion of there not having room for further venting improvement. I removed that under tray 3 times so far. I did find a layered aluminum panel on the inside part of the tray, which I presume somehow helps direct hot air through...

    Emira JB4 Tuning Now Available for I4 & V6 Cars!

    Hi Greg, A cooling engine under-tray, similar to what GRP already offers for the Evora, would perhaps be a more practical solution for extra venting, particularly since water and debris penetration into the engine bay would be a non-issue. Could that be developed for the Emira?

    New Jayemm Emira video

    Couldn’t agree more. James’ criticism is definitely focused on Lotus as a company and it’s corporate culture, if it has any.

    New Jayemm Emira video

    It may very well be true and yet not surprising that YouTube and, by extension James, thrive on sensationalism, but one thing is certain which is that throughout its existence, Lotus has provided so much ammunition to have it fired back at them. Their abysmal dealer/customer treatment...
