Emira

I must say I was a bit underwhelmed by the launch event. No details of the car. Engine / gearbox / softtop / price ...

Car looks nice and good to see a manual being driven.

Just seen - it's 6 cylinder or AMG 4 cylinder (360bhp).

I think it looks fantastic! Seems they're targeting a different segment of the market than we're used to but could definitely see one on the drive one day, ideally next to an Elise/Exige

I thought the whole launch looked amateurish and cobbled together.

The Emira looks nice but doesn't blow me away, hopefully it will look better in the flesh

It's also 1400Kg ...

It's also 1400Kg ...

I think it looks well, will reserve full judgement until I see it in the flesh but overall a good job I think.

The weight is a non-issue in my eyes, people do not want stripped out cars these days (many Lotus owners say they do but then add A/C, ICE with subwoofers, sound deadening etc etc) and the technology brings weight. Also, the current Evora 410 is over 1300kgs so not exactly a big gain in weight considering the extra stuff included.

Biggest thing that got my attention was the 1900mm width, that is the size of a current 911, odd for a car that is competing with a Cayman! Would be tight on a lot of the roads I drive on regularly

Still no confirmed prices yet either.

I hope it works for them, might tempt me back into one
