  1. Could be interesting make a comparison on the weight of the different speakers
  2. I work for an italian carbon fiber manufacturer. Weight is lighter for sure. Should be at least 30% less
  3. I know that it is a S1, I was asking if there were suspension changes between the 400 and the previous generation or if it was a setup (different angles) matter only.
  4. How do you explain this big rear tire wear? If I remember rightly, the 400 is not affected like the previous generation. It is due to the suspension geometry? Or it is a setup only? Thank you

    maybe the extra premium is needed to cover the transport cost
  6. Car seems to be LHD but the wheel is far on the right..
  7. where is the steering wheel in the front view blue print??

    I mean that, although they are official, I remember that the changed the spec passing from the S1 to the 400. First one was weight with fluids, then dry weight. So you can mask weight increase of the car. It is hard to be sure that all the cars are in the same spec.

    not sure that the weight you mentioned for different versions of the same car (400, 410 sport, Emira) are in the same spec. I suspect that Lotus is changing spec in order to have better figures.
  10. I mean that it has been used dry carbon fibre and not prepreg. you can see a lot of waves that are not beautiful on a aesthetic piece. also the quality of the part itself shall not high due to the process, presumably w/o autoclave and vacuum bag. the front dash panel is far better from the aesthetic point of view, but is quite simpler to do as well
  11. IMHO, quality of CF lamination is very low
