DV and Ice grey for me. Tan is way to Orangey for me.

First time I have seen DV in the flesh. The colour has so much depth and is really impressive under lights. Although even out of them it is still clearly a shade of green and not black.
From some of the pics online I was worried there would be too much blue in it, but in reality isn't turquoisey at all and I am really pleased I went with the DV and silver wheel combo
I have to concur though that it is hard to photograph and (amateur phone) pics don’t do it justice, but here are some anyway.

Nice! Good examples of how visible the engine actually is through the tinted glass too!

Thanks for posting the pics. Is that with all black leather interior or alcantara?

I happen to love this and it's what I have planned. I want an over the top wheel for winter. How can I get more pics of this car? I do agree I wasn't sure about the calipers I was wondering if Black would be better but want to see more pics.

Reach out to Lotus Brussels to see if they have any more pics of the Eletre event. This is the only decent one I could find.

I saw DV in the flesh and its still very dark even in the direct Australian summer sun.

As stated above, its a deep green without any obvious blue tint. To look its best it must be polished and clean, then part of its beauty lies in its reflectivity, with body curves and edges lighting up with a deep emerald green in the sun. It's purposeful and classy, but will be somewhat high maintenance (depending on level of PPF and coatings applied).

My fam is talking me into DV. For anyone who’s seen this in person, do the yellow brakes match the yellow center caps?
Thx

Yellow brakes do match the centre caps, not seen it on DV to comment on the overall look though.

Good video of DV.

Ah but what a beautiful place to be driving in an Emira. I'm definitely going to be putting a hydrophobic coating on the back of mine, probably 303 Graphene Nano Spray. It will keep the back cleaner by making it more difficult for crud to collect on it, and make it a simple spray with water to quickly clean it off.

Beautiful dirty pic. I see extra horsepower too.

Here's an interesting video from I guess a dealer in Japan, of a DV FE with tan interior and silver wheels. He goes through many of the features of the car, but at about 9:55 in the video he does a great job of showing the headlights in action. He shows the daytime running lights first, then the headlights on, and the amber lights/turn signals. You can turn on auto-translate which catches most of what he says but not everything.

The car looks great, and it's nice to see all the exterior lights in action.
