It's got me thinking. Problem is there are so many filters on the photos that it probably looks nothing like that, clear if you compare the Yellow to the photos appearing on Twitter.

ramjet Posted May 24 Report Share Posted May 24 You may be right Paul, but I admit that the way the reflections on it hide the shape in places increases interest to try and see what the car really looks like. Looking at the yellow car, you don't see the same play of shadows. But as you say, may just be all the filtering. Looking forward to what people say when they actually see a dark verdant in the flesh.

What interior and caliper colours have you chosen ? Tan interior and black callipers. I was tempted with yellow, but they don’t stay bright yellow for long. I have gloss black on my Evora and they still look good.they should also contrast well with silver wheels. Red were a bit boy racerish for me 😀 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hml_xy Posted May 25 Report Share Posted May 25 Anyone else noticed that the startup and reving noise on Shmees Museum video sound refreshingly different (but very similar) to the Evora 4xx soundtrack? Sure, this is very hard to tell from a video but I would like the Emira to sound a bit different compared to the old generation cars. And the idea of induction noise on the air intake of the driver side... 🤤 Here two clips of the Youtube video with startup, sport mode valve open and some revs: https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxvxJHbJpZAm7ssKYBAeeaSqkTEXITYcFs https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxVmMmW9bncG-Gm6Q14TxCwmKxoRi2KQbK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this meant to be impressive? Haven’t looked at SM for a week and now only conclusion from the pics is: it’s a re-bodied Evora, with bigger wheels, less power, heavier, not as good front end. Actually starting to look more awkward than an Evora. Anyone seen any cars being built yet. Delivery is due in 5 weeks time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold FFM Evotion Posted May 30 Gold FFM Report Share Posted May 30 Sweet. With black wheels - even better. Those getting yellow will be delighted. Probably should have been the launch colour really. 1 Quote If it has an engine, I am there to thrash it. My Emira Videos | Into Motorcycles?

Gold FFM Evotion Posted May 30 Gold FFM Report Share Posted May 30 Yeah, I am a marketing consultant and still wince at that one. So many things they could have said instead. There was absolutely nothing wrong with For the Drivers. I accept that the Emira 'may' not be as pure a drivers car as previous Lotus models, but it will still be a 'Drivers Car'.
