What are you driving until the Emira arrives?

[jagseven]

Your car looks a bit like my MX5, though my car is a PRHT version. It has lots of modifications - intake, exhaust, suspension, lights, wheels.View attachment 22549

That does look similar - slightly darker perhaps…but BUT blue wheels!! Have always had a soft spot for the MX5 - I was genuinely considering one as an alternative to spanking loads of money on an SVR/Emira. A good car is a just a good car!

Picked up Exige S1 at the weekend, but it wont be out until the salt goes in April. Emira due in April so will be a tough choice

This my 4th Exige S1 but Honda in the back this time. Emira was going to be my 10th Lotus but it will now be my 11th.

Got some new shots of my TTS over the weekend.

I bought used Enkei wheels and had them powder-coated - a "superchrome" base and a tinted polyurethane overcoat. Maybe I can find this color of wrap for the Emira! But yes, they are one of the most fun cars to drive.

This is what I am driving until my Emira arrives in Q2 2024. BMW M4 Comp - a refined beast with 503 bhp!! Arrived just before Xmas and the roads have been a little damp since so care needed!

There's a manual M4 at our Mercedes dealer in Isle of Man Green with ivory interior that I want to test drive so bad!

My current garage queen is my modified 2008 Lexus GS450h. My wife shares her 2010 Lexus RX450h with me when my GS is in winter storage. My problem will be where to store my GS when the Emira arrives, as my garage will only fit one car. I'll worry about that when the Emira arrives lol.

That's easy, build another garage! One of my brother in laws has a 4-car garage. I'm jealous.

Recently, with all the updates and resulting gnashing of teeth and shaking of fists, I have been driving my wife crazy by sharing these updates to her, which she couldn't care less about.

I wish I could lol! Unfortunately city by-laws will prevent me from doing so.

That's the most un-American thing I have heard today.

Will it fit a 4 post lift? Here's a pretty compact one. 220v seems required though.

I bought the same car, same colour, last fall. Drove it for a couple days before putting it away for the winter. Can't wait to start driving it again in the spring. It is all wheel drive, so I could drive it in the snow, but choose not to. I've never had an automatic with paddle shifters that shifted well...this one is amazingly fast; shifting and accelerating!

I get the humor but not true. Most cities in the states have strict limits on the size of secondary structures in the city limits. You must be talking about country folk in America. If you live in the country its a free for all.

Yea, I know. I own a home in a community with very strict bylaws. I was just making fun at the idea of restrictive covenants/bylaws/easements.

Decided to replace my PriusC last week with something I would actually enjoy driving as a 'daily'. (except when I go to the gas pump). Still keeping my Emira deposit of course. Very similar color to my 240z.
