Latest Emira Production Update

[DigDugLotus]

I had an order for the FE that never arrived now they want to charge me more

So they were "standard" for my order now they are making me pay extra.

Gotcha…. Well, that definitely sucks.

The 20K i mentioned was options that were previously standard with no extra fees, now costing extra. If i was to get the exact same build, i'm looking at around $20K extra

Most of them used to be STD according to the info I bought when i originally submitted the order

Freight also went up.
I'm now looking at $18k to 19k increase just in options plus the price increases since deposit 2 years ago.. I believe it was $119k now $134900. Add in luxury tax and HST.. I'm looking at $182k+ Whereas at deposit was around $150k.

I'm probably out now.. too much $$ for what it is.. other options available.. Sad day..

Oh my, that went up quite a bit compared to my Canadian FE V2. I got ripped of with freight and PDI … those total to be $10k and I couldn’t reduce it…

Ya I don't even know what pdi will be. $35k increase in 2years including the recently added luxury tax. It's not like Louts even deserves my business. I was a die hard Louts Emira Fan but this is a hard pill for this recently retired blue collar guy to swallow. Can't believe I'm even saying this. Oh well.

@Nova keeps a running list of the shipments - Nova Shipment Tracking. It includes VIN numbers.

Thank You

The luxury tax doesn’t apply to used vehicles so you may be able to pick one up close to your spec.

I also have a submission ID, price, and options. Was told I'd get it in November. No VIN.

That's a breach of contract, and they wouldn't let you out of it so easily if roles were reversed. I would hold them to the same standard and threaten legal action if you did in fact get a submitted/accepted build sheet from Lotus.

I have a submission i. d. from early March but no update other than “locked” since then, with production of the FE v6 manuals supposedly completed. Stopped by my dealer this morning to try and get any update beyond that and saw 2 of these parked out front. So if you’re tired of waiting and want to change gears you can jump on one of these, but they can’t be speced in Hethel.
