I contacted Windshield Skin (Rock repleant covering with clear Optics). They'd like to do an Emria specific product but don't have a car to reference. Anyone in the San Francisco / Sacramento areas that can let them measure your Emira windshield? Windshield Skin® | Bray Group International...

I have always loved Hawk Brake pads. I've raced them, run them on my street cars and think they make an excellent product. The OEM Ferodo DS2500 pads leave A LOT to be desired. They are grabby, the dust they produce is ridiculous, and their operating temp range make them ill suited for HPDE /...

My travels had me in Pittsburgh with some on my hands. I decided to stop by the Lotus dealer in north Pittsburgh. Really nice showroom with several unsold i4’s on the floor. They didn’t have a V6 manual. Salesman said the V6 manual was about a six month wait. Interesting at the lack of...

Purchased these on Amazon. $12 for two (M12x1.5). The picture at the bottom isn't a lotus but you get the idea :)

Recently got this set and decided I prefer the stock look. only one spacer briefly installed. Still in the packaging $250 with Shipping included. PM if interested

I got the Limited Telematics service advisory light today. The car had been sitting for about 10 days due to really bad weather. I spoke with my dealer service rep and he explained that the telematics system has a battery in addition to the car's battery. I'm told the battery responsible for...

It's the last sunny day for a week here in the midwest so I took the Emira (V6, Manual with Touring Suspension) out for a nice long drive. It gave me time to reflect on what I like about this car. Its been over three years since the car launched and in that time, there have been hundreds of...

I didn't like the look of the unfinished shift pattern label. So I decided to paint it to match my interior (Black and Red Stitch). The process was really easy and cost under $30. Since the shift pattern is recessed, getting paint into the recesses is all you need to do. Then when the paint...

There are two issues with the stock steering wheel that I really didn't like. (1) The "square" top and (2) the haptic touch buttons. My car was recently in for service so while there, I had the shop install the GRP Steering Wheel with push buttons. We removed the factory alcantara wheel with the...

I got this in my email this morning...It was the first and only time I've heard from Lotus directly since placing my deposit almost three years ago. I filled out the survey and did not hold back. Love the car, Love my dealership experience...but extremely disappointed with Lotus Corporate and...

With 300 miles on the odometer, I picked up a screw in my drivers side rear tire which caused the tire to slowly deflate. I got home after the drive with no TPMS warning. The next day I got in the car and after driving about 50 yards got a big red Tire PSI warning on the infotainment screen...

If Lotus thought its sales were slow, wait until the 100% tariffs kick in... https://www.bmwblog.com/2024/09/01/canada-tariffs-chinese-evs-bmw-impact/

After taking delivery yesterday, I was able to get a 200 mile shakedown drive across some KY backroads. I'm happy to report, the car worked perfectly! However, keeping the revs (mostly) below 4000 rpm was difficult! I have lots of thoughts but the the two most notable driving observations...

When Lotus announced the Emira 1st Edition there was an implied level of exclusivity for early adopters. While Lotus never really committed to firm limited production #'s for the 1st Edition, their marketing materials implied that it would be a limited run and guarantee rarity. That...

Stopped by Gator today for a quick test drive...Wow they have a lot of cars in the process of being delivered. Here's a pic of the show room. As always the team at Gator was phenomenal! They are really excited about finally being able to deliver cars!

Great picture of Lotus lineage from Gator Motorsports

Glad the wait for CARB approval is over but I'd like to know what ACTUALLY happened and why this was an issue in the first place? Is Lotus to blame, is the CA Air Resource Board (CARB) to blame...or is it some combination of the two? TMK, no one from Lotus UK or USA has offered any reasonable...

I've seen some good and not so good comments about dealers now the Emira is being delivered. It might be helpful to customers to hear from those who are willing to share their experiences, good, bad, ehhhh etc.

14 June 2024 update - Fellow Emira buyers. When the time comes to pick up our new toys its easy to get caught up in the moment and overlook things that'll be an annoyance later. So in order to keep the logic side of our brains functioning during what is an emotionally charged time, I've...

Here's a copy of the email request and the CARB certificate. Not really a big deal now, but I feel like we waited so long for this its worth seeing.

I'm in Louisville. Any other Emira position holders in the KY/IN area?

Piece in "DRVE" by Nico Demattia Sort of a recap of what we know...but its a good read...

The promoter put this out on FB, but I figured I'd re-post here on the forums. With an eye towards optimism anyone lucky enough to have their Emira by mid May, this event looks like it'll be a hoot! https://www.lotusversusthedragon.com/

Just received this from Tyler Reed at Straight-Edge-Metal-Art. He has a store on Etsy. Great product that'll be great on the wall of my garage. Straight Edge Metal Art

Black Pack option includes Black Exhaust Tips. The non black pack cars come with a brushed stainless tip. Rather than spending $400-500 in replacement tips it makes much more sense to swap out with another Emria owner who also prefers the opposite. If anyone is interested in swapping with...

Here in Louisville KY....America's favorite flyover state known more for bourbon, a small horse race, and baseball bats than car culture. I'm a long time Porscphile that's fallen out of love with the brand. I've owned over a dozen different 911s but over the years they've gotten big, fat and...
