I have a 22 cayman gts. I would disagree that you can have a comfortable lower riding car. Porsche do Sport pasm for the gts as standard. It is 20mm lower than a base cayman. I went for standard pasm on my gts as a no cost option. The ride height is 10mm lower than base rather than 20mm. I tested both suspensions. The 10mm is notably softer than 20mm.The whole concept of less wheel gap equates to poor ride quality is false. You can still have suspension travel it just means the wheel fender liners are shaped to accommodate it. Porsche has figured it out... Same thing with approach angles. My 982 718 Spyder front lip looked lower and more aggressive than my 987 Spyder and 981... but had better approach angles. I was quite blown away how they designed it that way! It needs to be designed that way from the beginning and it seems Lotus didn't thus why we are getting what we are getting. It's definitely possible.
Save that silly tucked and bagged nonsense for a BRZ or something.Not really a photo per say, but it's a little photoshop job I did that could give you an idea or 2! The Emira will look insane once it's proper low!

Wow that looks so much better. Definitely lowering cups will be the first mod when available.Not really a photo per say, but it's a little photoshop job I did that could give you an idea or 2! The Emira will look insane once it's proper low!

that's not tucked nor bagged. I hate bags and would never have them on any of my cars. I'm all for super stiff track coilovers with the wheel arches sitting 1mm over the tire just enough to get tire clearance to turn without rubbing!Save that silly tucked and bagged nonsense for a BRZ or something.

Totally agreed!! It sits so highView attachment 9234
Mine will be lowered on H&R coilovers.
Sorry if this upsets anyone but in my opinion it needs a decent drop
So I didnt read the whole thread but I was annoyed about the emiras stock height as well. Talking to my Lotus dealer he dropped a few Emiras by removing some piece. He explained it to me but I dont remember what they removed exactly. He said it doesnt impact handling in any negative way (they have quite a lot of experience and track the cars very often). It drops the car about 1.5cm I think… looks way better but it sits still not as low as the press cars.
I thought it was settled that there was officially a small difference? Guess it isn't settled hahaI thought we are over this… tour and sport are the same height!
So I was at the lotus advance driver training day last week and had it confirmed by the instructors who train the dealers etc that there is a difference in ride height between sport and tour. Once it was pointed out to me I was able to walk around the emiras parked up around there (hundreds) and was able to see the difference. Double checked by looking at the codes on the shocks through the wheel and theyt are printed with tour or sport in the part number.
