I use to look at this forum daily.. Now I try to pace myself and visit once / month. Otherwise, it's really like watching paint dry. I felt depressed last week with the spring weather knowing that there's a 0% probability that I'd get my Emira in 2023, so I went ahead and bought a MX-5 to ease...
Thanks for the clarifications... So am I correct in understanding that the $120K CAD advertised on the current configurator is inclusive of the increase (on the FE, of course, as base pricing doesn't seem to have been confirmed yet).
Does anyone know if this is 14K USD increase for Canadian vehicles? If I'm not mistaken, current price for V6 FE in Canada is ~$120,000 so that would increase total Canadian price to ~$139,000? Maybe I'm blind but I can't seem to find Canadian specific info anywhere.
I haven't driven the Emira so I can't speak to how the car drives specifically. But I've driven (and owned) several mid-engine and rear engine cars. From a day-to-day driving perspective, there won't be much of a difference and the different engine layout should be no cause for concern from a...
Not looking to finance either here. Market volatility is unfortunate, but the capital that I allocated for the Emira is not aggressively invested as it would be foolish. As it stands, I'm 100% proceeding with the purchase unless I'm somehow disenchanted by the test drive. If anything, I've...
Maybe I've been out of the loop for too long, but I thought that the base configurator was projected to be available in Q4 2022. Could you please share the source indicating a delay to Q3 2023 for the base configurator?
Excited to see more firsthand user reviews - thanks for posting this.
I recall that earlier on, there were concerns regarding the touchscreen's brightness particularly on sunny days with the glare. Any observations on your part? It's a little hard to judge screen visibility through a camera.

That doesn't seem too unreasonable given the type of vehicle and rising interest rates. But home equity lending for those who own a home will likely be a cheaper option for those looking to finance.
Personally, I would find it difficult to finance more and invest the difference. While the...
If they just changed the 9 to an 8, it would make more sense. Again, in the context of them using the same software for the i4. But a total non-issue as far as I'm concerned :ROFLMAO:
When I explained the potential ordering delays to my wife recently (I'm one of those who ordered very late), she asked me "what if you just doubled your Emira budget and looked at a more expensive sports car that you can purchase sooner, what would you buy then?". I didn't have an answer. The...
I'm not sure who they're marketing to with this, but I'm pretty certain it's not the same clientele that purchases Lotus vehicles.
It's odd... I would think that these crypto/NFT gimmicks could pose significant reputational risk to an established brand like Lotus.
But frankly, I don't care...
