    Emira Issues - from final production cars

    Lends new meaning to “Lit up like a Christmas Tree”. The shape almost looks intentional. Uncanny!

    Air Filters?

    All my cars get changed at 5k miles. The Porsche will never go more than a year regardless of mileage. For air filters I’ve switched to Sprint Race filters and will never go back to OEM. K&N are ok I guess, but I personally would go with a dry (oil free) filter. Every oil change goes to...

    Why are so many Emiras being resold in the USA?

    That’s awesome though! I know the cars are now coming in fairly regularly now, and a months wait?? Hell for that long you could camp out on their doorstep till its arrival! Best of luck with it and enjoy your new ride!!

    Why are so many Emiras being resold in the USA?

    Not certain about the remainder, but I have a vested interest in the market for P-cars. The GT4s actually have been gaining value where the GT4 RSs have been losing ground. Probably a function of them no longer being made. A quick search nationwide (dealers only) shows only 4 out of 27 cars...

    Why are so many Emiras being resold in the USA?

    The Ferrari I would wait for. Not sure if you mean the Gulfstream or the MB. The Gulfstream I would wait. The Mercedes is a waste of space. Watches are more of a see it and buy it experience for me. Don’t want to wait on something that may turn out to suck, simply to use as a collector piece. As...

    Emira vs Blackwing

    Hold on to that Blackwing! That engines a monster and with the no lift shift, that tranny is smooth! The sound as well will NEVER be bested by the Emira. Go ahead and get in line for an Emira but add to your collection, don’t trade!

    Lotus Emira First Edition AMG Powered I-4 Turbo Allocations Starting

    Last time I was in that dealership around two years ago, they had maybe 3 or 4 dozen open slots for i4s. Maybe they are thinking they will be arriving soon? Curious.

    Why are so many Emiras being resold in the USA?

    I keep going back to the fact that the U.S. does not have the support system and dealerships in place to maintain these cars. The need to travel hours each way to service your vehicle grows old real fast. While I still had an open allocation, I drove to the dealership and back to see how I would...

    Why are so many Emiras being resold in the USA?

    The car market has been crapping out for the last year to year and a half. Anybody with the intent to flip or recoup their losses would have seen this for some time, and known they were in a losing battle. They wouldn’t attempt to flip as they would guaranteed lose money. Which leaves other...

    Lotus Cars (not) at Goodwood Festival of Speed 2024⁉️

    They appear to be firmly rooted in the Asian producers compound. Sandwiched in the likes of Japanese, South Korean and Chinese producers. I’m sure Geely wouldn’t have it any other way.

    Harry sells his Emira

    Don’t wait for it. His collection gives him plenty to pull content from. He’s not looking at Lotus as a cash cow that he’s gonna get clicks from. He fell victim to the hype up, and was let down and bored. Let’s face it, it’s an Evora in a fat suit…nothing more. I think it was a wise decision on...

    Harry sells his Emira

    I think he was expecting more given the hype from announcement. The whole rollout and distribution has gone over like a fart in a diving bell, and Im waiting to see the fallout in the U.S. when there is no dealership base to handle the issues.

    Turbocharged Lotus Emira I4 add-ons

    Confused. Your saying your i4 is being built? It’s my understanding that they won’t be released until around June 2025 globally??

    will emiras still go over msrp in the US?

    What they charge and what they get are different animals. They could add all they want, but the days of ADMs are over and the worm has turned in the buyers favor. I’d worry more about reliability issues and the fact that people are already seeking Lemon Law resolution here in the states. Once...

    What are you using to brighten up your seals?

    Isn’t that the British way? The battery pack for the McClaren P1 uses cheap batteries off of Amazon, bundled and linked, sealed together and charge 20-30k to replace. Subpar parts quality throughout. Design is there. Implementation is not.
