Wanted to give everyone an update... The issue is SOLVED. Took the car in for service and they performed a collection of TSBs and such. Of note, they mentioned a VDPP (?) and that solved the issue. Car starts right up. Ow, immediately when getting in. So the issue was resolved, just got see...

I firmly believe it's something software related, we just have to wait on Lotus to do the update

I tried adjusting the steering wheel placement to test; no dice

Yes, with phone connected it makes no difference. It's something goofy with the infotainment currently

It's up to 105k, with 3 hours to go. Time will tell if my prediction is right - I'm expecting bidding to go slightly higher to account for someone "wanting it now" versus the true market price.

I'm predicting 120k for the final bid. Someone coming in off the street for an MSRP build at a dealer, even with no markup is paying 115k otd with taxes and such.

Well, good news - I'm able to reproduce the issue at will. It's something related to the wifi / internet. Note, I don't have my car configured to connect to my phone or anything - but once you get past the magic dialog boxes about the connection, the car starts right up every time. If you...

I plan on collecting videos, but I've been refining the process of debugging it still. New theory: the infotainment is just slow. If others would also like to gather evidence: 1) when cold starting the car, it takes the infotainment quote a bit of time to complete it's full "boot" 2) there...

I have flashbacks to the 3 months it took to get a clamshell for my Elise shipped. Ideally, I'd love for them to order parts while I keep my vehicle, but I guess I'd have to discuss that with them.

Interesting - I know you're at lotus of Dallas too, so if I call and mention this, is this something being handled under warranty? Do you know the turn around time on parts, because everyone else has been sharing some disconcerting news on repair availability.

Well... Bad news. Happened again. So that's not the solution I thought it was.

This also means I lose access to Android auto, and it is indeed some kind of software bug.

I suspect I have a fix, but more time is needed to understand of I'm just getting lucky or it works. 1) while you have the car on, disconnect / forget Android auto or apple car play. 2) in settings > connect, turn off WiFi. 3) then reset all Bluetooth connections. 4) turn off bluetooth 5)...

I'm using a rexing v1 dash cam. Nothing special, but gets the job done.
