Emira Fiend
I’ve seen it in person and uh, woof.
It’s bizarre. It looks both over designed and undercooked somehow.

A car is like your clothes. Do you want to wear something that calls attention for all the wrong reasons? I'm sure Costco has great prices but...All cars have compromises and the less they cost, the more they compromise. It’s all about your personal sweetspot.
35k club nd2
50k supra
65k m2
85k c8
105k emira
125k 911T etc etc
if on a budget, who can convince me 105k Emira > 63k m2?
105-63 is like 50k
Precisely, you can get some of it back by having solid monoballs in your upper/forward control arms with minimal NVH, but you're still never going to get the same road feel that you'd get in the Emira.The BMW steering rack in my Supra is the reason I'm here. Otherwise the car is pretty damn amazing, and the B58 is a beast. It's the damn steering though, which actually, the faster I drive, the less it seems to matter to me. That said, It's the low speed, puttering around town stuff in which the weighting is just off...and directly, the joy is lacking. I'm a pretty responsible driver around town (take out my aggression on the track), so I spend a good amount of time in the Supra wishing it had something it never can. No amount of improved dampers or alignment has given me the steering feel I crave...
You touched on a good point which is the tech. You can get a very nice M4 Comp Xdrive for $90k new. The tech in it is very good and very broad. Does about everything. So much there is a separate manual for it. Completely unlike the BMWs of the last 15 years where I thought the tech was not good and a lot was wonky to use. That being said, BMWs are everywhere. Emira's....not so much.M3/4 great cars owned one - loved my great big grill and carbon exterior & carbon bucket seats were so special. I’ll be test driving the M2 when it comes out I also thought what the heck are BMW doing !!! Back is ridiculous but may not look as bad in the flesh - also don’t mind ugly sometimes - I’m currently driving this and from a poor demo route didn’t think the Emira gave me £30k more Fun for sameupgraded Disco to Defender
which is fab. M240i love all the tech heads up display, blind spot monitoring etc, big screen, adaptive suspension, sunroof, comfort access, HK, interior lighting, heated seats, heating steering wheel same seats as M2, x drive etc and achieves faster 0-60’ of course not the handling or looks v’s Emira. I may need to search my Emira itch one day in the future once all niggles resolved and dealer near me as still love the look of the car but at the mo 4 seats gives me more practicality for my 2 yr old Granson who absolutely

purple car and loves going out in it, so that perfect for me for once I didn’t just think of myself. ( car needs quad tips on ) Like we say everything is choices in what gives us want we want and compromises
Might not wanna pay for the car with the 27” of diagonal worth of curved digital display then.Don’t care about tech at all.
Yeah, I am lucky I found one in my preferred spec tbh (Manual, CCB, Hockengeim Silver). They are super rare as well. Surprisingly different than the stock M2C when you drive it hard, particularly on the track. Remarkably similar when you are driving it easily around town. Some magic there.CS‘ are big bucks
