USA/Canada Delivery Thread

[Eagle7]

Today I took delivery of my Emira!! Almost 6 months after my M2C crash and resulting surgeries and rehabs, I am finally cleared to drive again. This feels like a reward and the coinciding timing of delivery is perfect! Drove home and it sounds terrific and looks terrificer!

I did full PPF and added black letters in the back. Nothing major at this point. Maybe a Milltek test pipe at some point.

My VIN is on the list, finally!

How long ago did you found out your vin?

 

[Zardoz]

I've compiled all of the VINs I could find for the US Emira shipments. What's missing is that I could only find 99 of the 150 VINs for the first shipment dated 12/1/2023. So this list is incomplete. This list will be updated as new shipments arrive.

One VIN before me & 2 VIN's after were on this boat. Continuation of bizzaro world. Lotus Sucks!!!!!

I wonder if these situations like yours, Eagle etc may mean the car failed QC?

 

[dgrace]

It's probably something as simple as what order they were parked in the holding lot outside the factory.

 

[CHEESE]

Other than Canadians, it looks like a couple of the people who mentioned their cars still not on the list are from New York

I don't blame my sales guy or the dealership. They only have what Lotus gives them which is practically nothing. I would hate to work there and be trying to sell Lotus vehicles. Who's your sales guy? Mine is Alan Grana who has always replied to my emails or calls. I know there were some who used to be there but left, so maybe your guy isn't there anymore? I'm emailing mine to see if he has any info.

Mine is David, It's mostly that I called him to ask about something and he just started with "We don't know where your car is, we'll call you when we know okay? Bye" and then hung up. And I was basically trying to tell them I was moving to Denver and if there was anything i needed to do before I moved that would be helpful, and that I needed to register the car in a different place than I originally intended. I really have only contacted them 3 times in the last 3 years, so I get they are also frustrated, but I generally would like to ask a question before being given an answer.

When did you receive your vin?

A week or so ago I think - my dealer was delayed it sending it to me, but the car was in Baltimore on the 12th and unloaded. Just got on the transport a few days ago, so it's making its way to the dealer now.

 

[Dr.JDK]

It's Here! It's Here! Well almost.
Mine is in this group.

Now it just needs to come another 3000 miles closer.

Mine is in this group as well. Ang it's heading to the PNW as well. I am thinking two weeks for trucks to deliver them to Park Place??

Greetings fellow Denverite. There's another recent transplant on here as well.

Thank you! Yeah on the bright side at least It'll be warmer and I can drive it back through Billings, etc for a nice drive. I drove my AMG GT down last weekend and basically had to race the storms.

This forum has way more information in its 557 pages than anything the dealers have been getting from Lotus...More dealers should be on the forum so they are better informed - they certainly aren't getting information from Lotus directly.

Question for everyone who got their vin and car on the way. How long did it take to be loaded in the ship to Baltimore once you got the vin#?

 

[Dawg]

Following ownership, I decided to join the forum community. Retrieved the car yesterday for the trip home to the mountains.

My Vin was supplied on January 18th.
Car was shipped on 3/18
But that delay was predominantly due to the CARB fiasco.

Guys... I found another shipment of Emiras coming, with 200 cars, due in NY on 4/7/2024 aboard the Atlantic Sun.

VIN tracking sheet updated.

Nova for president!

Hey Nova - I think there was a shipment originally scheduled for arrival on 3/30 in Baltimore - any way to track that vessel down?

That's the Atlantic Sea. It's the one with the 296 cars being unloaded in NY.
