Emira Picture & Video Thread

[Evotion]

Bloody hell!!  Epic. that is the best one yet. Again, it shouldn't work but it does.

This really does prove the car looks great in any clothing.

Bloody wicked.  Matching black and red strip on the front?  I feel a wrap coming on 

I'll wait until they bring out the GT4 version though.

Looks much better with something on the back, that is more what I was hoping to see at FOS. Would go for that if it sounded as good as the GT430, and easier to get in/out.

Action still from yesterday's "Lotus Moment" in front of Goodwood House - with the Emira (on "Design 1" silver rims) leaving the Evija "in its dust tracks"...

Hi Jack, that picture of the Emira at FOS driving in front of Goodwood house has me as a passenger. Is it Ok if I nick the picture and post in another forum?

And well done, you inadvertently managed to get my good side 😊

Because it had to be done............

[Evotion]

Yep. poor Cayman....   it has brand influence and perceived robustness BUT, and I am biased, that Emira is much better looking, supercar looks. 

Stick a rear wing on it and it will also look damn mean.

[ramjet]

I saw the other photo with a rear wing on it, might have been earlier in this thread. I think it would look better with a wing that doesn't have winglets, but sort of just wraps around the tail and comes to points at each end. Sort of banana shape if you look at it from above.

[Evotion]

Umm, interesting. I have to say I am interested on having one for the 4-cyl BUT if it is not Lotus approved then it might unbalance the car which they will have set up as is with a specific amount of downforce, so it would just be for show - not massively against that concept, but might have to wait for a special version.

[ramjet]

I think the Evija wing is like what I am thinking of.

I just think it would look classier.

[Evotion]

I didn;t recall it having one, but I did a search and saw this. A lot flatter and more svelte.

However, I quite like the side panels on the rear wing so I can put a Union Jack on it

This would be my choice.

As Lotus do with other wings. It's just that the square wings are sitting on the back of a car that doesn't have a straight line on it really.

A curved wing that followed the shape of the tail of the car would just look better to me.

[Evotion]

I heat ya. Have to see it first.  They have been running their GT4 cars for a year (secretly) so if they are intending to put a rear wing on it I assume they will need to re-test the whole aerodynamics as the car was originally tested without a wing. perhaps they have tested both already.  Later, that will give people the option to have one on their 'normal' road cars. I for one would love one on the i4.

I had intended to order mine in Essex Blue until I read Lotus will have limited colours for Launch.. My 350 Sport was Essex Blue and I absolutely loved it.

Chuck a few starts on there and the US will lap that up.

Great colour on every Lotus

[JCR]

Very cool love that 

[Evotion]

They still haven't made wheels as good as those. BBS style, deep rim, spokes.. brake dust nightmare but epic.
