First Edition colours - first-hand impressions...

[Elisesquared]

Call me shallow, but I'd prefer something ever so slightly lower than what we see here (but not necessarily dumped like the show car) ... knock 10mm off and I'd probably be happy.

Agree, 10mm would look better. I think the blue chinese car looked perfect.

I'm 35. Not everyone under 50 wants a dumped car . But as I mentioned above, I do agree it could be a tad lower.

Because this car is so wide and with a relatively short wheelbase and also that relatively short nose, I actually think it looks better at a slightly higher ride height than that of the show/launch car.

Also, I'm from the Boston area too, so look forward to meeting up with some other Emira owners next spring.

Boston checking in. Sort of.

Yes that is the first outdoor photo of dark verdant!!!

The British light is so terrible. Where’s the sunshine !

Now we need a Nimbus car with silver wheels in the wild.

And a car with red leather!

Notice on the Zinc Grey and White cars there are amber lights in the headlights - wonder if it'll ship like this to certain markets. It escapes me now, do US cars require amber colored markers?

Yes they do, good pick up. The reverse light will also need to be in a different place if I'm not mistaken.

They seriously detract from the appearance. Would much rather have an amber light along the fender that can be easily covered or switched out rather than within the light housing.

F****ing clouds!

The Shadow Grey above has red leather. although can't see much of it

I think that has tan?

I think that might actually be the tan. If it's the same shadow grey car from post #85 in this thread...

Holy hell I just logged in. Magma…!!!

Reminds me of my B5 S4 days, we'll be able to buy euro spec headlights and swap them out to get rid of the reflector

Sorry. I think you're right. Shall be the same car. Tan then!

Man that white should have been a launch color!

 

[TomE]

I don't think anyone expected it to be slammed like the blue prototypes, but I had hoped it would come in similar to the grey functional car from Goodwood / US dealer demos. This looks significantly higher, especially at the front.

Edit: some of this could be some fisheye effect from photos taken from the front corner of the car. I'd love to see a straight shot from the side using a long lens, similar to the photos of the grey car from NYC.

Side view. This car is riding about 5mm high compared to production spec. Imagine the gap from tyre to wheel arch is the same at 12 o'clock as at 3 and 9.

I really hope you're right!
