What was the cost for the full car PPF?

It was 3k for the front, or 6k for the whole car. I figured the additional 3k for the remaining 2/3 of the car was money well spent.

Super sharp car, nice choices on the specs. Still pinching yourself that it is actually in your possession as opposed to talking about it, like we all have on this forum

Yes.
I had never seen one in person before picking mine up. But, I knew every inch of the car from looking at pictures online. I was very nervous about my color choices, but so happy in the end with what I got.

Well, I finally picked up my car this weekend and I'm in love. Drove 200 miles to get home and installed the GRP decat pipe and Milktek controller right away.

No problem. Maybe it's on a different boat. Let's hope it will be here soon!

Ohhh I am checking anywhere I can daily.. The guy I know at Hethel told me that it was at the port 9 days ago and it was getting on the 6/12 boat.. but It didn't based on what you have.

How would I check any other boats?

The Superman. The blue is really sharp; I like it a lot. Is that the “after” exhaust in the video? I’m doing the GRP decat as well…….whenever my car gets here

Factory just got back to me. Car left the factory on the 23rd, but it won't leave port until July 1st. So maybe an August delivery.

The info I have are *arrivals*. The manifests are for cars that have arrived in the US. So if your car got loaded on a boat 6/18, it would take 2-3 weeks before it shows up in the US.

For anyone who didn't get the free Lotus gift or got the 2nd round without the book, Coterie Press has their reduced US shipping price again.

edit: I realize that the page looks confusing because they still say out of stock in one paragraph and then in stock in another paragraph. But I was able to check out for $57.50 (7.50 s/h vs 30 prior).

@Lotustoronto, what's the latest on your car?? When did they say to expect delivery again? (loosely)

your guess is as good as mine. looked like it arrived end of May. So I would be expecting a call anytime from the dealer... soon.

 

[RyanGphoto]

Soooo.. My dealer called today.. Said my car was at a US port (didn't know which one though), thought that was weird. Said they are trying to get it on a transport in the next 2 days. I don't see it in the shipping manifest that Nova has though. This is pretty odd.

Any thoughts on if my dealer REALLY KNOWS or not?

13289 is my VIN.

Trust @Nova. Haha. Nova reported that my car arrived at a port in New York on Apr 26, and then on May 7th my dealer sends me a template email about how my car left Hethel the previous week and just arrived at the port of Baltimore (and I believe this was while they were still clearing that bridge wreckage). And then my car touched ground in my city on May 16.

It makes sense if you think about it: us passionate nerds on here are gonna be much more connected to the minuscule details than a sales associate who has to keep tabs on 60 different cars for 50 different clients across 10 different brands.
