Cheers all around. These Lotus NYO cars can maybe get rebadged with just the LOTUS markings.

I doubt Lotus would do that as NYO badge was registered with DMV and supposedly you cannot change it under China's law, so officially for the NYO cars their badges will stay the same.

Oh wow, really. In the US, you can do whatever you want with the visual badging of the car.
