I'm surprised to see it's the AMG variant (though it doesn't sound like the current AMG).

Lotus said they were going to release a few special editions before they get replaced by the Chinese V8 Hybrid Auto.

I would like to see a higher tuned V6. But as the Emira came out already in a relatively high state of tune (it needed to for the extra weight and provide equivalent performance figures) there's not a huge amount of headroom left.

Emira - 400bhp - 430NM - 7000rpm

The highest tuned version of the Evora:
Evora 430- 430bhp - 440NM (Manual gearbox limited) 7200rpm
(Quite an uplift from the 276bhp original Evora)

The Emira may also be top limited for emissions reasons.
All means I doubt we'll see a V6 with any further meaningful increase in performance.
