Nimbus Grey Lotus Emira Photo Thread

[GetawayDriving]

Everything I've seen of Nimbus so far reminds me of the color on the MX-5 Spyder concept, which I love.

Incase you've missed it Nimbus is near identical to Maclaren blade silver so pop on autotrader, there's quite a few blade silver 570s, gives you a really good idea View attachment 872

Right that’s finally made my mind up I’ve been struggling for a week between nimbus, red and shadow. Nimbus was my original colour I had chosen before the improved configurator came out and when I showed my husband he said either the other two colour. I will be very happy if it’s like the blade silver. Glad I’ve found this forum. Nimbus it is. Now red leather or tan ? Did you have a photo with it against the red ? As unfortunately I couldn’t make the visit to the dealers and I don’t have any dealers near me.

From everything I've gathered... this would be my spot on bet for Nimbus as well.

I'm going with Nimbus grey with tan interior, yellow calipers and v-Spoke silver wheels. No black pack, as I can always go with black ppf.
I would go tan interior, the two tone looks so good.

Red is supposed to look great according to one of the chaps who went to the factory a few weeks back.

To clarify, that was the Magma Red paint. I think AudR8 is asking about the red interior, which we sadly didn't get to see.

Same specs and same reason to go for it

This is the config that I am looking at View attachment 39

Me too - exactly. First It was Seneca with Ice Grey & yellow calipers. Also love the red but I'm in my late 50's now and feel a little conspicuous. Nimbus is classy and the red gives it just that little edge fitting of a 'baby exotic'. Plus I think it will brilliantly show off the curves - like Gisele wearing Dior

Is that Ice Grey with midships powertrain?

Look at the bumper on that. lol

 

[Bilbao-Emira]

I think any interior combo really works with nimbus, even the ice grey which could sound like too similar to the outside
I went for Alcantara and black leather together with the black pack and privacy glass, only because I kind of like all the top of the car black, I think it will make the whole car look lower

Ok, not to objectify, but that woman is stunningly beautiful. What I can’t understand is how every person in the background is looking away at something else. Don’t know what it is, but it must be something.

Your post literally made me react like the emoji appears! I’m still laughing while typing (with one finger like any respectable “older gentleman”).

You're a man of great taste . . . that's my exact spec too!

After spending some time playing around with the online configurator tonight, I'm leaning towards Nimbus Grey. It seems to show off the lines of the car very well. Is anyone else thinking about this color?

Yes , and placed order with black pack , red interior, red callipers . Think the lighter cars will show the curves off better .

My exact spec also.. I remember seeing a Silver F355 years ago with tan interior, silver wheels etc and never got that image out of my mind.. Emira is in many ways is a modern F355 IMO..

If you mean they both look good, have ~400 hp, and can do 0-60 in the mid 4 second range, then yup... I agree. Just a shame the Emira is ~27 years into the future with similar performance numbers. At least the fuel economy is better in the Emira, right?
