I go to C&C Morrisville almost every month but I'll be traveling to VA tomorrow and will miss this one. Happy to meet up in the future though!

This was a couple weeks ago but I forgot to post it. We had a great time at lunch meeting up in Raleigh for lunch. As usual, the Emiras drew quite a bit of attention in just the few minutes we hung around before going in to eat. The only thing that looks better than an Emira parked in a lot...

In general, I would recommend shopping around. This time last year when I bought my Emira, my main insurance provider (National General - a subsidiary of Allstate) wouldn't insure the Emira at all. I went with Hagerty which was around $2K per year (max 7,500 miles/year). This year, when I...

That 55% does look pretty good. I might have to consider that.

I was almost certain I'd be tinting my car to the max legal NC limit (35%) but once I received my NG Emira, I decided not to do so. I think a lot of it has to do with all the smiles and thumbs up I get from people on the roads and that would largely disappear if people were just looking at...

The more I drive this car the less I car about a few tenths of a second to 60. The V6 manual is just a blast. Wouldn't trade it for a 3.3sec 0-60 i4 autobox.

I have the same setup and yeah, hearing that drive-by with valves open is just epic. I rarely get to hear it from the outside :) Thanks for sharing. Such a crazy awesome mod for under a grand USD.

I'm planning to have my ticking noise addressed during my first service visit if at all possible but yes, a confirmed resolution or two would be nice if anyone has had this successfully eliminated.

Eagerly awaiting the news. Mine seems to be getting louder and more annoying at 3,100 miles. I would like to have this addressed on my next service visit but I don't want them messing with the interior bits unless we have a confirmed fix.

Wow you're flying...I just cracked 3K today but I got mine on March 8th so you're going to eclipse me soon!

Interesting experience with Nimbus. I haven't regretted it once and get so many compliments on it virtually non-stop at C&C events. Nimbus is such a deep and dynamic color. It really stands apart from almost all other silver-esque cars on the road. I get that color is a personal choice so...

Overall, it was a huge endorsement of the Emira. Thomas said the Z06 is more fun to drive "at the limit" but I'm sure that in a canyon or on regular roads where you aren't "at the limit", the Emira is WAY more fun (and it has a 3rd pedal). I think the Z06 looks great (much better than the...
