I know it's not the Emira, but still a great video nonetheless -

hopefully the Z will be 1/2 what the Evora is

Thing sounds magnificent, exactly what you'd expect from Lotus: https://www.evo.co.uk/lotus/emira/204636/lotus-emira-prototype-2022-review

I just sat in an Evora GT but they are hella expensive here in Canada. There is one left in Vancouver for $145,000 CAD. That's almost THREE Zeds! But an insane car. But at 145K I would be doing some price comparisons.

Pricing announced:

Base I4: $75k
Base V6: $83k
I4 First Edition: $86k
V6 First Edition: $94k

Looks like a good value to me.

Base in Aus is 180k if it was Canadian pricing it’s what I would get

I haven't driven with 2 hands on the wheel for that long since I was 16.

You'd better get back into the habit, otherwise you'll fail any licence retest.

Wait is that really a thing?! And if so, why isn't it mandatory on a yearly basis for people over the age of 65?!

Definitely real in many countries. The laws and ages vary depending on where you are. I can't remember what the actual years are here, but I know it gets more often as you get old - for example it might be the first retest at 70, then 75, then 77 and 79, then yearly. My mother had her first retest just before Covid hit.

Well all the articles today saying Porsche confirms next gen Cayman as EV only has me chasing down Emira details. Found a couple good reviews of the V6 prototype.
