yes good name, hope its better looking than the poor efforts of the last 15 years, as a Lotus fan I do feel there hasn't been a pretty car since the Elise S1. Our cars will outlast the current crop as classics by a mile

Sounds middle eastern. Emir is a leader form those parts and Emira is the feminine version.

So the new Lotus will be a woman like the Elise. Hopefully the design/style will be properly distinctive and original...and not too fat long or tall!

They'll sell well in Saudi, Egypt and Iraq, Iran etc!

My modest Harem consists of much older more mature females --it's a classic car collection! :(

On bright side they're cheaper to run I guess ... :roll:
