Taking The Lotus Emira To Japan's Best Touge!

[@who_stole_my_username]

I'm pretty sure the AMG version will be DCT only. The V6 will be the last ever manual Lotus :(

[@EddieRicks-i8v]

This car looks better in person.

[@JK12518]

Man great video! Thanks

[@dealt]

Car looks good. Only nitpick is the bonnet. The design gives off an optical illusion from the side which makes it look bent out of shape.

[@adamgilesconcoursdelegance9302]

The V6 is the manual in Europe and Auto for the AMG!, beautiful spot there Dino.. a lil Lake Como like!,

[@Shawnrraines]

15.7m is around a Cayman 718 GT4 but it genuinely looks like a super car vs. the Cayman being a classic Porsche body style.

[@Shawnrraines]

The Unimog deserves its own video**

[@Mattrz34]

Another phenomenal video Dino! Thanks a ton for all the work! ❤️👏🏻

[@OnlyDinoDC]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@mimo5383]

Pretty sure it was the V6 that comes in A/T or manual and the DSG one only comes in DSG.

[@jsaint25]

Really liked the timelapse driving footage at the end. I think that'd be a cool regular outro for your car review videos.

[@spookydog6959]

lotus being lotus. love the channel ,

[@DanielGarcia-zq5rl]

Dino da GOAT 🐐

[@ItsJustPreVR]

Now this is how you test. Well done, keep it up

[@OnlyDinoDC]

Thanks, will do!

[@craigxfleming8806]

The I 4 amg 8 speed is one of the top 7 greatest cars out today

[@constantinrenoir8273]

Very great job and channel man! For your next videos, it could be possible to fix a camera on the pedalbox to film your footwork and to include shots in full screen please? :)

[@sc2320]

the lotus now has moved to the gentleman’s sports car to be fair looks quality but ye. nice little video there dino son 👍🏻💯💪🏻

[@se1663]

Why did i just find out about this channel, when I've been subscribed to dino_dc for years? 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@OnlyDinoDC]

This is where the more vlog type content goes!

[@gkanai1400]

Great video. Would be a bit better with a key light for your face as it is exposed for the outside which is proper but your face ends up hidden.

[@johnmick9457]

Lotus is on the right track but they really need to get the quality control game upped if they expect to get this kind of price for a car. The reputation of their cars will be hard to shake and is the main reason anybody would balk at buying one.

[@phinds1]

Second way you pronounced it in the introduction I believe is the proper way to pronounce it.

[@cj41079]

Wish you had the manual version 😢

[@CB21001]

Absolutely, I've not driven the Emira, but it seems that on this a manual is a must. Not sure I've ever seen anyone review an auto tbh

[@meenboli]

Doesn't have to be the fastest to be very very special.

[@priyankhm]

Awesome..

[@OnlyDinoDC]

Thanks 🤗

[@maiy8786]

Hey thats my local touge!

[@D0Ner1]

It really misses a spoiler (unimok) 😂

[@OnlyDinoDC]

Japan will take care of that I’m sure lol

[@GT-RTData9]

Are videos with “worth it” in the title worth watching?

[@michaelsummerell8618]

Depends very much who's made it...

[@morophineswordphich8229]

Comes across like it was designed for the autobahn.

[@OnlyDinoDC]

Definitely a GT

[@fritzmckellar1756]

Pretty car. A couple of somewhat negative thoughts about the Emira, both focused around the V6 engine. 1) As a GT/DD, who wants to hear a supercharger whine 100% of the time?!?! 2) who thought that metal canister (solenoid?) Visible in the engine bay (and through the back window if I recall) looks clean/quality? I would have much preferred to see a mild hybrid compliment the V6 vs a supercharger. Hopefully the inline turbo 4 is a little more focused, like the Alfa 4C...

[@OnlyDinoDC]

Yep driving the 4 banger next

[@meenboli]

I think the fact that it's analogue is Lotus's swan song to this kind of car - a hybrid would have killed that vibe.

[@christopherbellisario9195]

Beautiful design, don't love the engine choices...

[@tobiaszdabkowski5450]

Emajra 😅

[@xxxmarekxxx505]

SUPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@gp1683]

0:41. Lotus only produces one car? Someone didn't do their homework. And for god sakes...Its "EMIRA" not EMIRE-RA

[@OnlyDinoDC]

Sorry I meant sports cars, as in the cars that they have always made. That EV SUV & sedan are marketing exercises done by its new Chinese owners. I’m sure they’ll do well, probably allow them to earn more so they can keep R&D going for the sports cars.

[@Joe-eg7ml]

For design/style, yes! But performance wise it's mediocre for its price.

[@OnlyDinoDC]

I’m sure Lotus will address this as it expands the range

[@Joe-eg7ml]

@OnlyDinoDC they need to figure out cooling so they can add the high output amg engine. That engine with a dct would be fierce.
