No arguments on looks for sure. I still think it is one of the best looking cars on the road. If Lotus came out with an official company response on the paint issues I will probably order one. The paint issue was the only reason I canceled. That issue was just too far for me to go. I will say...

Pretty sure he is referencing performance and raw race car feeling. The Emira is softer and less performance based GT car. That is why they sold more not because it performs better.

Glad to hear that it’s more fun than a 88 base porsche ;)

The all new state of the art Lotus paint process seems to be lacking.:unsure:

Actually they are almost the exact same size. Lotus a bit wider and more ground clearance. 911 4" longer. https://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/lotus-emira-2022-coupe-vs-porsche-911-2019-coupe/front/?&units=imperial

Pretty sure company racing pedigree of Porsche speaks for itself. Not even close. Different planets.

At first glance I was like whatever it’s just some oxidation. Then I clicked the third picture and was like WTF! That’s ridiculous for a 100k car, sorry this is not a jeep.

Think it is called trex

The difference is how each company responds to the problems. One will handle and stand behind the their brand and one will not. Worlds apart unfortunately.

I get that and I was on that same boat. I guess I was ok with mechanical problems but I’m not comfortable with paint peeling. I hope it does not happen to any new cars.

Can anyone answer this question. Why has Lotus not offered any type of explanation of the paint problem and if they have resolved the issue. I do not understand how people keep buying the Emira with no official acknowledgment of the problem by Lotus or confirmation that the problem is resolved...

Looks great but did the aluminum trim always have the scratch on the right side? Or maybe it is a hair

The car delivery was delayed three years. They have had three extra years to sort out the problems. If that was not enough time to sort out things do not count on it ever happening.

I love how people are talking about sloshing around water proofing in the interior door panels of their 100k car like it’s okay 🤔

Overwhelming praise? Hardly. The reviews have not been overly positive. I would say the build, electrical, and paint issues will hurt sales badly. Not taking in to account the terrible Lotus customer service.
