Was in China for business and got a chance to go to the local Lotus dealer. Just so happened they had my order combo: Silver wheels, i4, Dark Verdant. Only thing missing was the beige interior. I actually just got my order confirmation this week. Couple pieces of feedback to share:
-The green is even more gorgeous in person. It changes from black to green to blue to green metallic based on ambient light and where you are standing.
-The interior is beautiful and comfortable. I am 5'7" 170# and was super comfortable inside. If anything I felt a little small.
-All the wheels are the same, only difference is the paint. I thought the silver ones were different but they are just painted different. The black/silver look better in person than in photos, may update my order (I have until 10/20).
-There is more room behind the seats than I expected.
-Complaint: The one I saw was brand new and still smelled like fiberglass (many of the body panels are fiberglass/thermoset rather than aluminum/steel). It was disappointing to open the door and not have the sweet smell of leather. I hope with mine that some outgassing in the garage will resolve this quickly.
And yes, they are as beautiful in person as in photos. Can't wait to get mine in mid March!
