I fear there will still be plenty of trauma to bond over after we get our cars. Most will start with “I waited 2 1/2 years and they still didn’t fix the [windshield wipers]…...”Agreed, this community is simply the best! Thank you everyone for all the laughs while scrolling through today's posts.Couldn't ask for a better way to kill time during the wait.
I feel like once our cars are finally delivered, we will all have trauma-bonded with one another. Haha. Hoping we can all meet up in person some day and share some beers and go for some drives!
Well if you guys wanna fast forward to the trauma. Here’s the latest issue to look forward to

Warped bumper
Washing the car I saw deformations of the bumper, pointed out to the dealers... We found a surprise. the supports cracked and the screws too tight. Let's wait to see what LOTUS says

Maybe that's how they fixed the weather stripping gap we were complaining about for a while there.
I have a close friend that works pretty high up at a different major automobile manufacturer. He said they have run into issues with CARB cert before, and the ECU tweaks they had to make to pass had no impact on the HP of the car.
This is good to hear. I know we learned to not be positive around here, but If anything, wouldn't leaning out the tune actually improve emissions and result in more power? Maybe something good will come from this?

Can't hurt to hope for / see a bright side. Just like how every month that passes means I'm going to pay them with a weaker dollar....
Some of the emissions have to do with tip in and tip out -- basically going onto and coming off the throttle. Big changes in transients mean more unburnt hydrocarbons and particulate matter. It's why things like rev-hang exists in order to smooth out those emissions on tip out. They have no impact on power output of the car but they will have an effect on response to throttle. Maybe that's what they're changing?

This ^ is my biggest worry…

I own two electric cars and live in Texas. That should definitely be enough to give my car a pass from this emissions related wait.

New Canadian website was launched today and new configurator is now live. Much better site. Noticed this in the options;
Darck chrome interior trim finishers? New addition for base customer with the design pack?

@Bilbao-Emira has a V6 Auto - I don't think his is as bad as that video. When I tested one, I didn't really test a hard pull from a stop.

I’m a V6 auto deposit holder. Maybe this summer I’ll find out .
Whatever, "science man"
I agree, although I am not worried about 0-60 at all. It's not a rocket anyway, same as the manual.
These guys in the video didn´t know that the V6 Auto has Launch Control, which will make a big difference in their sloppy start, together with getting rid of the passenger
So true!
