Wow. I haven't been back on this forum since I was screwed out of my FE slot by the DC dealership and decided to take back my deposit. Since I hadn't seen any Emira's on the roads yet, I figured I'd stop by here and see what's up. It is INSANE to me that y'all aren't getting your cars until 2024...

Flew into Boston this morning, hopped into a rented 2019 Aston Martin Vantage, reached over my shoulder for the seatbelt and...HA! Twisted just like the Emira. Literally the only other car I've driven to have an (intentionally) twisted belt.

After being told by Lotus of DC (both over the phone in May, and again in person at the demo test drive last month), that I was getting my car in the first batch of FEs, I was told today that I'm now in the FE 2.0 batch. I know this is fair game for dealers to max their profits and push people...

Day One of the DC Auto show today. No sign of Lotus, but maybe a ship comes in between now and Philly?

Rock on, man! I hope you're the first one in DC to land an Emira! Still patiently waiting with my fingers crossed for an email from Lotus HQ!

I was on the fence about the privacy glass/engine visibility issue myself. Then I got my test drive and saw the engine is easily viewable behind the privacy glass. This photo might help show you the level of darkness the privacy glass creates v. clear glass. Look at the view of the parking lot...

100% agree

You're definitely getting this car. Shahbaz said he was headed to Philly Friday evening after the DC demo in the first part of the day.

I had the opportunity to drive the nimbus w. red leather tour car in Washington, DC this morning. Technically the DC dealership doesn't physically exist yet (should open in the second half of next year), but when it is done it will be in Rockville, MD as part of the well-established Ourisman...
