    Emira alternatives

    Can't recommend a vette enough as a nice alternative. It was delivered yesterday. I couldn't stop smiling whipping this thing around town. Definitely get a 2lt if finances allow for it. The upgraded features are so nice like heads up display, sound system and all the tech stuff. It's also...

    Emira alternatives

    I was anti vette for a while after a very short 1lt test drive. It just left me feeling unimpressed but I got to test drive a 2lt and really take it out for an extended time. I was able to push it and Rev it out. I officially admit I was wrong. The car is amazing. I just bought one 2023 2lt...

    Maintenance question - servicing in El Paso TX

    Okay that makes me a feel a bit better. I'm in the same boat, I want it regardless lol but it is a concern. I'm hoping some local shops or even a few hours away could handle the vast majority of repairs. I am just concerned with it being a lotus and as we know there isn't many on the road...

    Maintenance question - servicing in El Paso TX

    I am US buyer and recently moved to El Paso Texas from Naples FL area. The closest dealer is about 8 hours away now. I went with the v6 FE as many of you noted it's the more known engine and should have less issues. I just don't know how feasible it will be to take the car in for maintenance...

    I'm out - the cancellations thread

    I was told the exact same thing. 2500 down and no more with Naples. I was also told they would give me the money back if I ever needed to cancel as they would have no issues selling the car. I am assuming every dealer is different. Naples makes ridiculous money and they usually put a premium...

    USA/Canada Delivery Thread

    I agree it's BS and the communication is beyond abysmal. I think we all know another delay is happening. I mean most of our British friends across the pond are still without a car. I do believe they could provide better timelines but ultimately I'm sure it's to reduce people dropping out. If...

    USA/Canada Delivery Thread

    I have no hope of receiving it early next year. I am pretty much set on it being Septemberish. A part of me wants to walk away for a plethora of reasons, but damnit I love the look of this car and can't find anything in the price range that mimics it. I'll take a MC20 but that's 280+ lol so...

    Corvette C8

    Ya I think about it all the time. That's why I went with the V6 I feel like most shops could work on the Toyota engine, but I'm worried about any other major issues. I will only be driving it once a week. I work from home. I won't be doing any track days so probably 2k miles a year. I...

    Corvette C8

    This is what scares me the most. I am getting an FE emira from Naples. The wife and I recently moved to el paso and the closest lotus dealer is 8 hours in Dallas. I am not very mechanically inclined besides changing tires and air filters lol so I'm nervous on what to do if an issue arrises...

    Corvette C8

    That's true to each there own. And the vette is a lot of car in terms of power. I just like a sense of uniqueness in a car. The camaro definitely doesn't get that either lol as they are a dime a dozen here too. But I know the lotus is coming and the vette was 97k while the camaro was 49k...

    Corvette C8

    I had to get a hold me over car as the emira wait is killing me. I test drove a 2023 vette and a 2022 camaro v8. I left with camaro. It was 40k cheaper and I enjoyed it so much more. Honestly if you are getting the emira I would hold off on a vette unless you just have cash burning a whole...

    Anyone received their 30 day notification yet?

    This is my thoughts as well. I mean as an early depositor you have been waiting close to 2 years. Don't just drop out unless of course financing is an issue. Other than that at least take possession and flip it. You dont have to be a dealer and bump it up 40k but you should be entitled to a...

    Latest Update

    Lol for real you don't really see many on the road. I have always liked the LC. But ive never seen it with the Bespoke option and orange/black interior. I think that sets it over the edge. Takes it from a pretty car to sexy as hell.
