Some data points from Michigan Progressive: $3082 per year ($1541 per 6 months), 6000 miles per year Grundy: $1560 per year

Haha fair point, it's just even more standout now!

I like the hood bonnet, its unique and different. Though I wonder whether they'll only sell this as a whole kit and not separate pieces.

I always worry that Atlantis Blue doesn't show the angles or show as well in the dark (compared to Nimbus), but this is absolutely gorgeous!

Haha fair enough, at this point I just hope that I can get an order at all given that there are concerns of the V6 manual getting discontinued. I'm not too worried if it takes longer as long as they assure me a car!

Personally, I feel if you're going to go auto, go with the engine that was meant for auto, the i4. i4: + AMG exotic engine, responsive and the NYO people have been allegedly pulling crazy 0-60 times if that excites you + DCT + Pretty responsive (although some people were initially claiming that...

Wow that looks amazing! How much did it cost to get that done? Where'd you get it done if you don't mind me asking!

It's nice to see a visual of what a round steering wheel looks like for the Emira. I think at some point I'm likely going to switch the Emira's wheel for a GRP round one as it just feels more natural for parking and city driving.

The green calipers on the 2nd to last image is definitely something I wish they offered! Personally, I always thought a Atlantis Blue with orange calipers would look pretty slick (also nickname it Gatorade) I've also thought teal or turquoise would be some nice green-blue colors.

If folding carbon seats come into the loop, I may be on board! Question, given the setup, is there any ability to easy move stuff to the rear deck storage, or do you have to use the gap between the seats to help store bags?

These are absolutely insane times. If I understand correctly, you have a titanium exhaust and carbon seats but no tune right? Guess for N/A we'll be really looking out for a proper ECU tune to atleast get us to the 400hp see in NYO Emiras

I personally think that these will start selling like hotcakes if they drop to $150-$160k range, as they're now competing with people who would consider highly specced C8 Z06 and Porsche 911. From a lot of reviews, many things seem to indicate that the car is a good all-arounder, but doesn't...

The good ole days when the Emira FE V1 was sub $100k...

@Kimmax are you currently still looking to design these? Bumping to keep the thread alive.

Hi MajHall, Please note I don't have a G80 M3, my dad however does have an X3M that I've driven a lot and the G80 M3 was a car I was cross shopping vs the Emira before I decided to go all in on the Emira. The main question I have for you, is what are you looking for in a car? There's a lot to...

Someone Jimblob actually painted their alcantara steering wheel to have the yellow centerline stripe! Post for reference https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/lotus-introduces-%E2%80%98lotus-chapman-bespoke%E2%80%99.4297/post-132556...

I'm pretty sure a while ago someone said the filter was a Toyota part that they just slap a Lotus stick on or something of the likes. Don't quote me on that though.

Lotus of Detroit got their first one about 1 month back! They now have 2 with the 2nd being up for sale right now!

I spent a lot tuning my Audi and frankly, the Emira tuning pricing still does make my head hurt before I even have the car. I wasn't certain though if this is attested to the fact that I'm not used to the higher pricing bracket for higher end cars scenario. Still I'm with you, I plan to keep the...

Well provided that Eventuri definitely has a unique (engineered) design element to them, their pricing isn't too crazy given that their equivalent intake for an Audi B9 S4/S5 is the same price as the Lotus one...

I like it! Do you have a link?

I'd definitely be interested in buying one of these if they're still in consideration!

Thank you for the pictures! I've been wondering what would look better with gold wheels Nimbus or Osmium. This helps put it in perspective a bit! I may follow a similar route in modding when my turn comes!

Realistically if it's not visible, it shouldn't be huge concern. Though preferentially I thought the metal case one was a really nice clean look if it has to be in plain sight.

We'll both jump in together for the 2025 batch!

If I weren't a year away from getting my Emira, I'd be right on board. This looks really good and thank you for the testing!

I thought it was £1000? If it's originally 1200, thats much more significant that I originally thought.

it's cool it follows the body lines. Though I'm going to be honest, it very much reminds me of Ketchup and Mustard.

The residual is pretty good, if MF gets better by the time my number rings up, it'll definitely make me feel a bit better. I'm considering leasing given that the concerns for paint bubbling. APR of roughly 10.4% though feels like a nightmare....

Residual after 3 years is 69%, I've heard MF is 0.00438

Aero is pretty on the money on the money about dealership variability being a big factor. To add some of my personal data, I just put a deposit down last Friday and have been told to expect 6 months from now to get a call to configure. I also asked and was told that base configurator is likely...

Last time I got a dyno test done it was about $200 for 3 pulls. So could be about $600 for all test?

You mean they caught someone drifting around a corner ;)

Although I like both of these, I just wonder how to get power (what lines to tap into?) and whether any alterations may need to be necessary to mount a light for the door. I don't think the Emira has a door light.

Here's some example photos of illuminated seat badges! You'll find them in the new gen BMW M series across the line. The new 2022+ N series from Hyundai also have them as well (to no surprise since the designer of Hyundai N's was a BMW designer!) They're more meant to be seen when outside of...

I've been waiting for someone to come with this! It felt weird that the badges don't like up like BMW M or Hyundai N series! Count me on the list!

Only thing I like is quad exhaust tips, but honestly, its still a v6 though so its pretty unnecessary.

The exhaust note/intake noises definitely feel very underwhelming in the AMG setup. I'd even argue that the need to have a plain plastic engine cover vs seeing the supercharger proudly displayed is also a huge disappointment. All that aside though, it does look like we're both in the same boat...

Great catch, there does look to be a little bit of a transmission hump in that area!

Put simply, this isn't the driving factor on whether I prefer the AMG vs the Toyota V6, really when enthralls me about the AMG engine is that its truly an exotic engine fit for making this a more exotic package of a car. I'm still split 75/25 on V6 Manual vs AMG since I rather think its more fun...
