Hethel Yellow Lotus Emira Photo Thread

[Logoman]

This plastic Emira from the key box is a nice object to have around.

Best yellow for a car, of any brand I've ever seen.

Color looks amazing. Does it look so mustardy in real life? I love it.

Great pictures by JCT600 Lotus Bradford of their Hethel Yellow demo car (now being advertised for sale):

I've a few photos of the car, but it's this one I keep choosing when friends ask to see a photo of it.

Sorry for the yellow neglect, Black and yellow now completed with the proper lower black pack now fitted. Love my spec so much! These look so good on the road.

You can buy the exhausts and rear badge for about £250 then it’s £250 for Lotus dealer to fit. You have to take the rear bumper and undertray off to fit the exhaust as there is a retaining bolt you can’t access so best left for the professionals.

I kinda like the “frosted tips” on the exhaust.

Fair enough I didn't dislike them but preferred the black

I will note.. really the only way to stand out with this hethel is to NOT get yellow calipers. I like the look and it I don't care about trying to be a 1/1 car.. But with the minimal options available I think black and red will be an afterthought for most. I'm disgusted with myself that I'm posting about caliper paint.

Verdant green would be cool for calipers with yellow. Nobody has that

My HY being used for a music video in London this week. The car is the star!

Oooo How exciting will we see it somewhere ……

For those who have the car AND the lotus diecast model, how close is the paint of the diecast model to real life?

There was one Emira at today’s Club Lotus track day, amongst the 40+ Elans, Elites, Excels, Europas, Elises, Exiges and Evoras.

And some video

Now that we’re into summer weather, are the insects attracted to HY?
