Japan - Emira Ownership (エミーラ納車とその後)

[ino]

Now I’m back from Gaien.
Big thank you to @virtualmacho san for coming in early morning!
@JaviLM san, maybe next time…!

note: DV is the beautiful but the hardest colour to take photos

She’s finally here! Took delivery today. First time seeing Nimbus in person, immediately fell in love. Will try to post some initial thoughts later but overall experience is good so far and I just can’t stop looking back after parking the car to admire the lines of the Emira (especially the side profile).

Photo may seem a bit awkward, had to magic erase things out as too many people during daytime to take a decent photo.

Anyway, super excited and happy to finally join the club as a proud owner.

Congrats! Now, just complete break-in and let's go out again!
納車おめでとうございます！慣らしが終わったらまた遊びに行きましょう！
その前に夜中のコレド室町かな？

You will find after a while they loose that snatchy braking at low speeds.

Finally, Emira was delivered on 8/24!
It is the first MR, 6MT in my life!
As Forest san said, the initial braking at low speed is very strong and I also found it difficult to control delicately.
It is quite stressful when driving in traffic.
However, yesterday, I had to part with it for another week or so to have it ceramic coated.
