    Atlantis Blue Photo Thread

    There's a separate tint thread where some of us Atlantis Blue folks posted pics (below). I think it depends on if you got the factory tint and your preferences on privacy and looks. Definitely get ceramic for the heat resistance properties. I do not have the upper black pack or factory tint...

    To PPF or not to PPF

    I originally had my car only ceramic coated through the dealer. Everytime I drive I get nervous about rock chips which took some of the fun out of the drive (personal problem). There were some issues with water spots on the front end and since the dealer had to remove and recoat anyways, I...

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    Optimum No Rinse (ONR) rinseless car wash might do the trick for you. Bucket of water with ONR, spray some on, soak a mitt or microfiber towels, gently glide over each surface, dry with a dedicated microfiber drying towel...done.

    Alcantara Steering Wheels?

    I ordered the Alcantara steering wheel without giving much thought, then found a whole online cohort of people who despise it. I feared for my life after my order was locked and thought I would have to trade my car immediately (JK). I actually love it :D I wouldn't necessarily advocate for it...

    To tint or not to tint? 😎

    I have almost always gotten 20% for all my cars (white) and love the darker aggressive look and privacy. I have an Atlantis Blue Emira (black alcantara interior) and went with 50% of the highest quality ceramic tint for UV protection and heat control. It's very obvious it's tinted under...

    Fitting a battery conditioner... Do's and Don'ts

    Does anyone know if the CTEK comfort connect indicators are compatible with the Lotus provided Deltran Battery Tender?

    Aftermarket wheels for the Emira

    Thanks for sharing, these look amazing! Is Forged Charcoal a custom color? I don't see it listed on the GRP website. I think they'd look great with Atlantis Blue, the brake dust drives me nuts on silver.

    What Color are your other Cars?

    My current other car is white, and the two cars I owned before that were....also white. I love white cars especially augmented with black roof, trim, tint, rims, etc. For the Emira I went with Atlantis Blue. I just felt this car deserved a color that looks beautiful on top of everything else...

    Hello from the PNW USA

    What kind of work did they do for you? I had mine ceramic coated by the dealer but now I'm kind of regretting it. I have water spots and swirls still happen. I may get a front PPF instead.

    Hello from the PNW USA

    I picked it up from my wife who spent a good chunk of her life in Houston. It's rubbed off on me :)

    📓 Journals People's reaction to your Emira

    First time I stopped to get gas I parked next to a clean 70s Corvette (C3). A lady walked out of the gas station market and immediately walked over and said, 'are you kidding me a Lotus?' Her son had driven a Lotus and asked to take pictures to send to him, while repeatedly saying 'she's...
