    Tariffs on Emira in US?

    So, will Lotus shut down their US stores like in Bellevue, WA? Or just provide maintenance services only once their inventory is cleaned out? Jerome

    Tariffs on Emira in US?

    1,000%. Please don't hate all of us 'Muricans in four years. I know who is to blame, but I won't say anything (hint, the party you are thinking of, plus the oppositions lazy voters who didn't show up). Jerome

    Tariffs on Emira in US?

    Last night I decided I'm not going to venture down the 'buy an Emira' road. F** Trump and he and Elon's baby tantrums. GL guys, maybe in four years I can think about it again lol. Jerome

    Hello from the PNW USA

    Hey fellas, I'm in Beaverton, and if there are indeed reputable shops that can do all the necessary maintenance intervals and maintain warranty on the car, it'd be a huge thing for me as I don't want to spend $500 (or more to get it covered during shipments) to ship the car to Bellevue. Does...

    Cabin Air & Car Play Questions

    Hey all, So during the pandemic I bought a Toyota Camry (normally a Honda guy but I thought I'd try out Toyota). I had to sell that car because: 1) I couldn't run the defroster and internal air circulation at the same time (I was forced to breathe in those diesel fumes) 2) I couldn't use or...

    Gamers! Assetto Corsa EVO coming Jan 16th - has the Emira!

    When I first tried ACE with my PSVR2, it sat me backwards in the seat of the Emira, lol. I have a motion rig and that seemed to work just fine. I haven't tried it again since. But when I have time I'll give it another go. Game looks super promising! Jerome

    Emira Decals - Share your design ideas!

    GRP Short Shift Kit

    This generally sounds like a nice improvement, I'm assuming a local service shop like the one in Seattle, WA would be able to install this for me? Or would they be more hands off since it's not an official Lotus product? Jerome

    Tiresome CarPlay bricking

    Just throwing out an idea, but perhaps also turning off mobile hotspot would help in some situations? Jerome

    Emira V6 Maintenance Schedule -Official from dealer

    It's a similar 600-mile round trip to Seattle/Bellevue from Portland, so I'm just adding the $500 round trip cost to get the car shipped as part of the cost of ownership. I'm okay with this as I know ahead of time. While I could be a great mechanic, I've got very little experience (and...

    Emira for Assetto Corsa

    This is trippin' me out. I was just at The Green Hell and rented a Hyundai from RSR Nurburg, so having the same experience in the game is well mind blowing lol. Jerome

    Emira V6 Maintenance Schedule -Official from dealer

    In prepping for my (hopeful) Emira, I created a maintenance schedule in Google Sheets, based off the above PDF that @Aero posted. It's a first draft, but let me know what you guys think and if my checkboxes for the maintenance are off, or mistakes/missing items. The tire and brake sections...

    Emira Wireless charger insert for the cubby!

    Nice product man! Would this be something you'll be making well into the future? I'm hoping to order my car TBD-2025 if my gig at Microsoft works out. Jerome

    Emira for Assetto Corsa

    I'm an avid sim racer, typically ACC and GT7. I've only played a little bit of AC back when it first came out. I want to say Overtake.gg (formely Race Department) has lots of (safe) AC mods/downloads: https://www.overtake.gg/downloads/categories/ac-cars.6 HTH and I for one can't wait for ACE...

    Sun protection- visors and car covers

    I found this one Amazon: Link I may wait on that one because I'd almost prefer to hang it on the rearview mirror vs looking at suction cup residue while I drive? 🤷‍♂️ Jerome

    Carwash experience?

    I've only owned 'regular' cars like Civics, Outbacks and Accords over the years. I haven't ever really washed my own car by hand. I do have a power washer and a regular hose I could use, should I just use the hose since it's more gentle? Or should I consider using a waterless wash and wax (I...

    Carwash experience?

    Good question, I'd also like to know if having a complete PPF cover installed, would going to a touchless car wash be okay? Jerome

    Seats?

    The worst part about the Lotus Emira…

    Is it me or are the newer pictures in the configurator showing shallower headrests than the 1st edition ones? The original ones looked like they were protruding too much, but they look better now. And speaking of the headrests, is that stitching and zipper(?) an issue when resting your head...

    ✅ Solved Shifter Knob Covers?

    Ah okay, I'm in Portland, OR. So if you are alright without one, I may get a sun shade too for the summer months. Good idea, thanks! Jerome

    ✅ Solved Shifter Knob Covers?

    Hey all, I'm hoping to buy an Emira in 2025 (hopefully) and I see that shifter knob looks metal that'd make it hot in the summer and cold in the winter. Are there any custom fitted shifter knobs for the Emira that I could put on it? It'd be nice if the there was the gear diagram in red. Does...
