Osmium Silver Lotus Emira photo thread

[Callabrator]

That does help a bit. Thanks!

Have you ever seen an Apex Blue S2000 CR? If so, how does it compare to Seneca? I'm guessing Seneca is very very close to Apex Blue, which is an awesome color.

Ok cool. I've not seen Apex Blue on an S2k, but I do have a Refraction Blue Supra, and I'd say Seneca is very close to that. I unfortunately couldn't park mine side by side to really get a perfect comparison. And fwiw, I've had my Supra for 3 years now and still love the color. Get complements on it all the time.

Nice, good to know. Refraction Blue is a head turner.

Haven’t had the chance to wash it properly yet, but it was the first sunny day since I bought it and I wanted to drive rather than wash. Enough excuses, here’s some pics:

Cars like this always look good with a bit of road grime on them - shows they are actually being driven, as they should be!

That pic with the coast line is epic! I’m patiently waiting for this VERY spec (w 6-speed) to arrive in Nov/Dec. First time seeing it in real photos and it’s beyond amazing. Congratulations on your delivery, beautiful car.

You will be thrilled when you get yours.

I get more and more excited about this car every time I drive it. It truly feels that special to me.

Posted this in another thread and had to share here too, blown away by these…

While I continue to patiently wait for my car, I needed some extra motivation at the office. I found an awesome designer on Etsy who does these amazing fully customizable posters. Literally down to the actual car color and anything else you want to do Charles will collaborate with you. Had him create these. Link below to his shop, tell him Joe from NC sent you. I have no affiliation with him but was blown away by his work and even more so his amazing customer service!

How long did you wait for yours? What would you say are some highlights or favorite things about the car? Appreciate any real owner’s perspective as I only had the one test drive and need more time behind the wheel! Haha

Not enough action in this thread so thought I would add a few photos of "Winston." Currently being wrapped but hope to have him back late next week. Tried to include different types of light in those photos with the first taken on an overcast day and the last in direct sunlight. Not sure I've captured it yet but I'll keep trying...

No other color shows the lines and subtle curvatures of the Emira like Osmium Silver. I am very glad I chose this color. I sometimes look at photos of Meridian and Atlantis blue, and Vivid Red and think I should have gotten something more "interesting", but I think this car will look the best long-term in Osmium. It really emphasizes the design.

I agree. The car looks too good to hide the lines. This is a classic timeless design.

Thanks for sharing the pics. The white leather looks great. Hoping for mine yo arrive later this year.

Can you confirm if the color has a blue hue to it? I’ve seen a pix on the other thread next to a nimbus and it appeared to have some light blue to it. I’m sure the color changes based on the lighting.

Yes, it has a very noticeable blue tint. Seen by itself it comes off as silver but when you see it next to a silver or white car, the touch of blue is easy to discern. Here it is next to a silver Evora with a white Rolls in the background...

Thanks for confirming. Makes me more excited that it has the blue! Kinda like an Easter egg within the color - silver looking on its own yet blue/silver next to light colored cars.

I went back and forth on the ice gray interior too. I’m glad I ended up with the ice gray. It adds a nice contrast without being over the top. It also lightens up the interior space.

Great pictures and beautiful. My choices were down to OS, AB, or HY. I ultimately went with HY because I have never had a yellow car and have had silver and blue cars. The more I see OS, the more I think I could live without a yellow car. Enjoy!

You’ve had silver and blue. Live a little! Enjoy the Hethel Yellow!! There is no bad color on the Emira…

Are we sure osmium has a blue hue and it's not just dark silver?
And do the wheels have the same tint?
