180 mph. When cars in 1992 went 230 top mph? And this thing has and still is a “prototype” With only part of the HP available? Yeah sounds reaaaallly solid business idea there buddy.

Buying a car based on the 0-60 times and specs on paper is some little boy stuff. Drive them, see how they feel, live with them, day in day out. You'll see why hondas engineers are as well regarded as they are. The car is balanced, and puts the drive and feeling first, not 0-60 time. Also that J30 is bulletproof.

I went with the sport suspension and Goodyear tires, which feels like just the right balance for me. I've owned an Elise for 16 years and still love it (won't part with it!) The Emira is still all Lotus, wonderfully refined and a beautiful car.

Nope. Not an Evora chassis. It has the same wheelbase and length but it has a wider front track. Also I opted for Sport and love it. Tour had too much vagueness at the limit, too mucb body roll for teuly spirited driving. For California roads, mountains and back rooad I personally GREATLY prefer my spirt Emira I agree with everything else. Like many British sports cars, you habe to learn its quirks but then you realize that the quirks are actually features and give it more character. The Cayman GTS, GT4 left me cold. On my last 1k CA rally, my car kept up with everything, well above its class.
@markd32504 күн бұрын
I agree with the fact it's not an Evora chassis. It's based on all they learned from the Elise through the Evora, but the Emira was designed as an evolution of all that, not just a pretty new face. I agree with the reviewer that the Tour chassis works really well with non-perfect roads. I have the Emira with Tour chassis and it's a pure pleasure to be in and drive. You have to drive it, it's not doing everything for you, but I actually like that. You have to learn your dance partner and how she moves, but when you do, oh boy... it's so much fun. I'm not sure why the reviewer wanted the steering to load up even more in the corners; I think it's fine. If it loaded up even more it would get fatiguing. They wanted it to be the best ICE Lotus they've ever made, and I think they pretty much nailed it. It has the best of just about everything all blended together in one great sports car. Now that the forced switch to EV is starting to fall apart, maybe they'll be able to still make a few more ICE cars, or at least some hybrids. This one however... what a beauty.

I'm actually looking forward to a proper electric lotus! When you think of lotus, you think of lightweight and chassis, and never about it's propulsion. Lotus has never made a great powertrain, having to outsource that to others. So let them focus on what they're good at, the chassis dynamics, and put a small light skateboard platform under it with a Tesla like a/c motor in the rear. The car would be better balanced, have a much lower center of gravity, and instantly shoot this car off of every corner with the insane torque. If done right, it could be an autocross beast.

We are too! But we still wanted to take a second to eulogize Lotus' ICE history and acknowledge the Emira's significance.
