    I ordered full black pack on the Emira!

    Am I guilty of cultural appropriation?!

    I expect that once they start the build I'll get regular updates, but so far Lotus have been pretty quiet.

    They're still saying mine will arrive around Sep / Oct but I doubt it. There are a few pics floating around of cars on the production line or being tested which are pretty much my exact spec.

    The next week or so should be interesting, though - Top Gear will have the first review of a completed car (not a prototype) presumably with Chris Harris driving it and then over the next few days several mags and other outlets (including Harry's Garage) will have their reviews out as well.

    Fingers crossed it's not rubbish! :p

    Exactly! We are going to use this car a lot.
    Tassie, Pt. Macquarie...

    Hell, I may even go on one of your homersexual surf club / Red Rooster tours

    I keep saying it reminds me of a modern 355.
    Yes, yes, it's not as good looking as the 355 - nothing is! - but it's a good looking, 400hp, RWD, MANUAL (hello, Simon!), sportscar that isn't huge or ludicrously priced.

    Quite enjoyed this. Spectacular road and scenery, the landscape atop the volcano reminded me of footage I've seen from Mars!!!

    Mate, I love the spec of his car. I’d totally live with the red carpets to have the race seats, cage, harnesses and stick. What a car!!
