Evora is better looking than the Emira

[TdM]

Yeah, I didn't get the Harry comment about the Evora interior much either. I prefer to have physical buttons than touch screens and I think the Evora interior is really nice. I also have no issues with the HVAC BTW, though I do agree the fan is a bit noisy.

The one thing I would say on the S1 design of the Evora interior is the buttons around the wheel are largely not visible which is a bit silly, you end up knowing where they are but makes for a bit of clumsy stabbing for the heated seat at times!

I think the Evora looks great. It's like an old school supercar and suits my eye better than the Emira BUT it's very much horses for courses, both look great in very different ways so it's a positive for both camps from me on the exterior.

 The S1 rear end is lovely (with two pipes and not the awful S exhaust shape) but always hated the Evora badge on the right arse cheek. Just naff and makes the rear look out of balance. 

I don't have an Evora badge on my rear arse cheek. I thought I was normal 🤔

Not in my 400. It all seems to work very well and the aircon is icy cold.

The same here, all works very well and fine with my 2021 GT 410 Sport........

Agree with most. Emira front is nice. Evora arse is sexy.

Don’t you think this thread should now be moved to “Evora Chat” 🙄

I just love the shape and styling of the LE Evora's. And, judging by all the +ve comments I receive from Joe Public, they love it too. It's all so uncluttered but at the same times just looks like a supercar.

The Evora MK2 ie the Emira is a beautiful design too but a bit more shouty.

It's a bit like saying is the Exige better looking than the Elise?

I can only speak from experience of my Evora S. The heat control was full on or if you rotated it 10% colder it went to nothing. Cold draught in the footwell was a known problem with pre 400 cars Evora footwell and gearbox tunnel draught - TechWiki (seloc.org)

AC was fine, unlike the Elise

Could well be a more appropriate place for this topic.

I suppose it would be much like a topic being in Evora Chat which says that the "Emira is better looking than the Evora?"

Then a render that puts the Evora bonnet and lights on the Emira plus some work to the back.

Comparing a model that has gone through several iterations versus a model that is in its first iteration is probably not a fair comparison. That, as well as people having model bias toward that model they already own.

A Evora owner here and yes it is a fantastic looking car especially the latter cars and in yellow 😂but to say it’s a better looking car than the Emira I think it’s time a few members made a trip to spec savers. 🤓

Haha, same and agreed. I think the side profile and front styling of the Emira is stronger and certainly 'prettier', but the rear treatment....I'm not convinced. I think the Evora (certainly the later 430GT) is more striking and better looking.

Myself, I think the Evora has that unique look that Lotus has been doing since the 70s. Look at the Elite 501 styling...and even the 70s Europa...all a bit marmite to some people, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

Two nice rears!

One needs to add lightness though!

Again, the 430 was a fair few iterations into the lifespan of the Evora.

 Patience grasshopper.
