Sold pending funds

Bump

SOLD PENDING FUNDS Asking: $95,300+Destination If you’re interested PM me. Im no longer in the market for a Lotus and just trying to recoup my costs. I am selling for MSRP+Destination (I.e. at cost). With CARB approved the vehicle should be available shortly! Located in Seattle, WA. Build...

Let me know if that works out. In my experience Park Place wont do much

Can Lotus dealers legally hold their customers hostage with nonrefundable deposits while not following through on delivery dates?

I was told by my dealer all the US FE models would be 2024

Did they say this week? Or are they delayed again?

At least we have a timeline for the update and it’s not very far away. We also have confirmation that they’re delayed.

Received today via email: “Thanks for reaching out. You are correct, production for Emira for US/Canada was due to start in January however our cars were not loaded for assembly. As of today, we have been told to expect an update from the factory early next week. We’ll keep everyone posted...

Wow those yellow strips really make the headlights look worse haha

Does anyone have a photo of a U.S. spec Emira with yellow side markers?

Did you say the Emira feels as fast as the C8 corvette? The C8 that goes 0-60 in less than 3 seconds?

Did my test drive yesterday. The car was fun and despite the damp roads I was able to go full throttle. The car was on Cup 2’s but they are swapping to F1’s today. They have a Lotus rep there for questions. I asked him about the US schedule and he was adamant they were still scheduled for Jan...

I hit the 6,800 redline and the engine cut fuel. It happened quicker than I was expecting probably because I’m not used to digital dashes and 6,800 redlines.

I had my 15 minute test drive today. It was on damp roads so I didn’t test the handling much but was able to hit the rev limiter and test the traction control on a couple of turns. Since we are all speaking on subjective terms I will try to compare it to the Evora GT I drove last summer...

I wanted to clarify something that Ive been hearing repeatedly on the forum…that the 718 GT4 has long gear ratios. EVERY gear except 1st and 6th is longer on the Evora (and presumably the Emira) than the GT4. The only reason you reach a higher speed before shifting on the GT4 is because it has...

Are 991.2 GT3’s going for 140k? Last I saw they were 200k

How does the ride and feel of the Emira compare to the Evora GT? I really enjoyed the analog, raw feel of the Evora and am hoping they don’t neuter it in the Emira.

The Evija and Eletre are priced at 139k as well. I think the website isn’t quite finished. Everyone take a breath haha

Can you comment on how the sound and ride quality compares to the Evora GT?

The front of the glove compartment or top of the lower dash would be good alternatives. Example:

That badge placement is horrible. It looks like someone bought it on eBay and pasted it on using superglue. You can’t even read it without leaning forward and sitting up in your seat.

Link in case you haven’t seen it: Here

Can someone message me a link to the PDF? Thank you in advance

Is anyone else getting a broken link when trying to access the manual?

Porsche has this on their GT3 manual. You push in the clutch and mash the gas pedal and the car holds it at 5k. You are then supposed to dump the clutch and launch it. Nice way to abuse your trans haha

Went against it. Rather see my engine and choose my tint than have to match it

Cars aren’t just about looks and what others think of them. Also if you’d ever driven a GT3 I don’t think you would have the same opinion…Unless you only care about appearances. As someone stated earlier, the GT3 is on a different level.

Yes March allocation. Park Place said November delivery. I also emailed Lotus USA and they said March allocations are scheduled for September production and November delivery

I am #6 at Park Place and sent in an order for Seneca Blue with black wheels and yellow calipers. Pretty similar to launch spec. I’ll see y’all in November at pickup
