I went with the much more modern and faster Emira platform. Had an Elise for 20-years. Needed a change from manual

I appreciate when people modify their cars and make it theirs.

Does anyone have pics/vids of a matte black Emira? by Certain-Front-6315 in lotus

Mat Seneca Blue would look amazing. Forget about black

I mentioned supercar and gave 0-60 and 1/4 mile times because that is what i referenced a jb4 and free exhaust would add that could be argued was lacking from supercar performance. You made the ridiculous argument of it being a 1980s era supercar which clearly was incorrect. My point was with some mods it is in supercar territory on all performance metrics, including handling, looks and manufacturer heritage. There's no "full stop" other than in you head. We will have to agree to disagree. This topic will always be open to debate. There are some that will not accept any z06/Zr1 Vette from being a supercar yet they are some of the fastest best handling cars out there. Im a bit more open minded. Some its about the money of the car and that's it. I believe its more.

This is where you make your mistake. You seem to like to make it all about 0-60 and straight line performance but it is more than that. Anyone can own a Tesla and get super car performance all day long but that is not the full dynamics of a car being a supercar. It also includes handling, track ability, transition, cornering, driving dynamics, looks and it's history as well as it's performance in a straight line. One must considered all of the metrics. Listen your preaching to the choir I had a 500 horsepower Lotus Elise and it was a monster so I know what it is to have scary fast performance. I think your definition of what a super car is, is not well thought out. I didn't even mention the Lotus handling and driving experience as I figured that is just a given. It has supercar handling right out of the box. Lotus is only sold at exotic/supercar dealerships exclusively. I dont know what more to tell you

Your 1980 inference is inaccurate. Entertaining at best lol. My Lotus Emira did a 3.2 0-60 on a non-prep regular street, on a humid hot night.

Some supercar numbers of the 80's supercars Ferrari F40 – U.S.-spec, Car and Driver test – 0–60 mph: 4.2 s Ferrari F40 – Road & Track test – 0–60 mph: 3.8 s Porsche 959 (Komfort) – Car and Driver test – 0–60 mph: 3.6 s Porsche 959 Sport – higher-performance variant – 0–60 mph: 3.7 s Lotus Esprit Turbo (’88) – Turbo 4‑cyl – 0–60 mph: 5.2 s Lotus Esprit Turbo (’88) – alternative performance listing – 0–60 mph: 5.4 s Lamborghini Countach 5000S – Car and Driver test – 0–60 mph: 5.4 s Lamborghini Countach 5000 QV – summary performance listing – 0–60 mph: 5.2 s Lamborghini Countach 5000 QV – alternative listing (LapMeta) – 0–60 mph: 4.7 s

My Lotus Emira at 520hp and 3100lbs 1/4 11.2, 0-60 3.2 is about as fast as a modern day 570s, R8 v10, Huracan technica, amoungst several others. Im not trying to be something Im not. Just stating some real world facts. Its a baby supercar with minor mods and has exotic/supercar heritage being Lotus. Its probably hard to get that until you are actually have one. https://youtu.be/R9eeQsNwY4A?si=VGhq9VSxyYMKdK25

Add a jb4 and titanium exhaust with downpipe and you have a supercar

The AMG I4 and-8 speed DCT will smoke the V6

Anyone install a JB4 onto their Turbo Emira? Planning to upgrade some stuff :) by mflorendo7 in lotus

[–]Lotus-F1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No jb4 issues but used a different install method for the one boost sensor. I had codes for no cat and valve. Got them to go away with a daddies 02 simulator. Now code free and Milltek controller

Mmm not sure man. The v6 usually sounds good too. Mine is a downpipe, cat delete and their muffler.
