Stradman is adding a Lotus to his fleet of supercars and hypercars.
Whether it be his first Lamborghini Gallardo or his most recent Koenigsegg Agera purchase, automotive YouTuber TheStradman’s diverse collection of supercars and hypercars, and love for all things automotive prove his authenticity as a true gearhead. Always adding new vehicles to his ever-growing fleet that resides in both Utah and Arizona, Stradman is often the first to dealerships for new car releases. In his newest upload, James takes a visit to the team at Lamborghini Salt Lake City to check out his newest purchase, a Lotus Emira. But before heading off to the dealership, there were some much-needed inaugural driveway laps in his newly restored mini Lamborghini Countach go-kart. The small-scale ride-on was completely redesigned to match the factory spec of his 1987 Lamborghini Countach 5000QV. Arriving at the Lamborghini Salt Lake City behind the wheel of his Ferrari 812 Superfast, Stradman quickly picks out his bright blue spec in a row of fresh Lotus Emiras. The only thing holding him back from driving the new Lotus off the lot is emissions compliance in the U.S., which has grounded the current Emira deliveries until further notice.
Stradman did have a chance to drive and enjoy the interior of his almost-new Lotus, expressing his excitement for key characteristics like its high-desirable 6-speed manual transmission. The Lotus Emira comes equipped with a choice between a 3.5L V6 engine and a more modern 2.0L turbocharged inline-four sourced from Mercedes-AMG. The V6 variant offers up to 400 horsepower, enabling a 0 to 60 mph time under 4.5 seconds, while the 2.0-liter AMG unit doesn’t skimp on performance. Both engines are meticulously tuned to deliver an engaging driving experience, with top speeds exceeding 180 mph. Leaving the Lotus Emira at Lamborghini Salt Lake City until he gets the call to come take delivery, Stradman heads off in his custom Jeep Gladiator 6×6 fit with a 6.2L supercharged V8 motor from Dodge SRT Hellcat.
