* Update on the another CEL issue *
I stopped by at Lotus Beverly Hills this morning. Allen and Stephen found the same code (P0420: catalyst system efficiency below threshold) and I'll be brining the car in for service next week (plus an oil change). The car seems like it's running fine... Before I took the car in, the car seemed like it was running in a "safe-mode" lacking power, but now the car actually runs extremely well. I just had a blast driving the car on the freeway, and the car felt really good.
In addition to the CEL issue, Allen fixed my loose handbrake lever issue.
The loose handbrake lever has been making bad rattle whenever I shift, and I'm so glad this is now fixed.
