Having owned both- GT4 is streets ahead of the Emira in almost every way. As for not feeling as special? -sitting in buckets, looking over the rear wing I again have to disagree! Each to their own!

Not sure it’s OCD. Surely when you buy something new you would like it to be in good condition on arrival? I understand you or anyone wants to drive your car but you should be excited about receiving it, shouldn’t you? “Handover day” should be something special after such a long wait. Not a...

Don’t bet it will be shiny. The cars are held in an airfield before home delivery. It then depends on which delivery guy you get. Fingers crossed it will be perfect. Mine was delivered in a closed trailer (I expect they all are) and was not clean. It also had scratches on the front and rear. The...

That makes sense! Typical man reply from me only thinking about myself!

No need for the pie! Its only because I have been watching the market like a hawk and having owned the GTS 4.0, an Emira and a new GT4 all in the last 3 months I am in a good position to see values. I think the 4.0 GTS is the closest rival. The Emira is by far the best looking car. The Cayman...

Agreed, small first hit then should sit well. A very good car (even at the new price!)

Correct. I watched the market. I was not in it to make money- of course if its offered fantastic. No point waiting ages (like all the other cars for sale) Put it on at the correct money and sell it. Everyone is different but If I don't want something I offer it at the correct price and its gone.

Understand your point but I think generally Flippers are moaned about (mainly on Forums) because they are taking cars off people who want them and selling them purely for profit. That always being their intention from the start. I do feel (and I am one of them!) that they wanted the Emira but...

All the demo cars seats were baggy. That was my first impression and 1 car had only done 800 miles. I think alcantara is the way to go with the Emira to save baggy seat!

There were no flippers for the Emira. Flippers is a bit of a grey area anyway. To get any car that you can "flip" you have to spend fortunes at a dealer. A GT3 which you can (or could of) for £80k over list when they first came out. Anyone cannot just walk in and buy a GT3. They have to have...

Hello Nellie, sorry to correct you but you are wrong. I got that number from Auto trader. Have another look- There are 21 GTS 4.0 for sale. This is the Emira competitor (or supposed to be) Not the 2.5 GTS (old car) or the GT4 (above the Emira) The GTS 4.0 as I stated in my last post. This the...

Agreed, and the number is rising daily. There are move Emiras for sale now than Cayman 4.0 GTS and that car is 3 yrs old.

There is the initial depreciation and then they keep reasonable money. Thats because they are low numbers. The Emira will not be low numbers, that's the worry.

They are selling at £83k, just not with silver seats ;)
