I think it’s a fair comparison, range is one of the items that the Lucid wins.300 mile range price starting $105k for bmw i7. Why is it being compared with any lucid?

I was one of the first few people who got the GTP.
Yes.
OK. I still cannot think of Air Pure and DE P as basically the same car though. That said, I drove GT and Pure AWD only and not DE P. So, I cannot compare the 2. 50 mile more than Air Pure AWD and a lot more acceleration 3.5 VS 2.5 or less, massaging seats, glass roof, soft close doors, remote frunk, ambient lighting choices.I think it’s a fair comparison, range is one of the items that the Lucid wins.
DE vs Pure = 4 cylinder vs V8. In comparison of options & pricing could be like comparing Chevy Tahoe vs Cadillac Escalade. I’ll be on your camp IF you want to compare Lucid Air to Tesla S. Lucid beats Tesla S ALL DAY LONG. NO QUESTIONS ASKED!!!OK. I still cannot think of Air Pure and DE P as basically the same car though. That said, I drove GT and Pure AWD only and not DE P.

OK. I will take your opinion at face value because I never even sat in a BMW i7.DE vs Pure = 4 cylinder vs V8.

Great spec on the 7!I was one of the first few people who got the GTP.
Yes.
I must say, among legacy mfgrs BMW is doing a very nice job with EVs, despite their platforms!I think it’s a fair comparison, range is one of the items that the Lucid wins.
It’s an opinion. It’s not the same one I share, having driven a Taycan, i7, and my DE - I’d take my DE over either of the others all day.I like my Lucid but the i7 is in a class by itself. I know I’m going to get attacked by some Lucid owners here but I doubt any of them have owned or driven 2 Airs for as many miles as I have or an i7 to be fair. Lucid is definitely better than Tesla S or Audi Etron but the i7 & Taycan are better engineered & built cars.
Yeah each of those big three cater to different styles, with the Lucid being a good balance. It is a matter of preference for what you look for in a car.It’s an opinion. It’s not the same one I share, having driven a Taycan, i7, and my DE - I’d take my DE over either of the others all day.
The Taycan handled *slightly* better, but the other drawbacks (space, practicality, etc) were far outweighed by the Lucid.
I did not find the i7 “luxury,” I found it gaudy. But that’s again, personal preference.
No reason to attack you for stating an opinion, however wrong it may be.
Yeah. I feel like anyone who loves “old Lexus” will love the i7. I’m not saying they’re the same, and I don’t mean to imply it uses old tech or anything at all, but it handles like a cloud, doesn’t pass along road feedback, and is thus much ”smoother” of a ride, if that’s what you’re into. And it has the “classic” sense of luxury, which imho is far too gaudy nowadays.A couple of days ago I charged next to an i7. The driver struck up a conversation with me and raved about his car. He had owned several S-class cars, but tried and disliked the EQS. He felt the i7 had it all over the EQS.
He was particularly enamored with the i7 seats and how they fit him better than anything else he tried. Being on the somewhat heavy side (he actually called himself ’fat’), he found many car seats uncomfortable. He insisted on me trying them out (I actually had already at an i5 premiere event I was invited to). They were certainly cushy, but not being of the same girth, I found the Lucid seats more comfortable. He didn’t seem particularly concerned about handling, but raved about the i7’s ride quality. He said he was interested in the Lucid but never got around to test driving it.
Personally, my biggest issue with the i7 is the car’s aesthetics. Much too boxy for me. With that said, as pleased as I am with the i4, I’m sure the i7 is a great car.
Yeah but does the passenger airbag work for small people who sit funny??Yeah. I feel like anyone who loves “old Lexus” will love the i7. I’m not saying they’re the same, and I don’t mean to imply it uses old tech or anything at all, but it handles like a cloud, doesn’t pass along road feedback, and is thus much ”smoother” of a ride, if that’s what you’re into.

That doesn’t make it bad. Just not *my* car.
I was wondering how long it would take before you chimed in…. Your opinion doesn’t mean anything to me as you have no idea what you are talking about!!!Yeah but does the passenger airbag work for small people who sit funny??

I did not find the i7 “luxury,” I found it gaudy. And it was far too floaty for my preference, not nearly as hitched to the road as either the Air or the Taycan. But again, that’s personal preference.

It was kind of an inside joke!!I was wondering how long it would take before you chimed in…. Your opinion doesn’t mean anything to me as you have no idea what you are talking about!!!
I was responding to the Borski guy. I blocked him on X but he makes a point of responding with the same non sense…. Has no clue, just full of opinions!!!It was kind of an inside joke!!
I have found Borski to be pretty well informed and I find his postings on this forum to be educational and in most cases right on the money!!I was responding to the Borski guy. I blocked him on X but he makes a point of responding with the same non sense…. Has no clue, just full of opinions!!!
If you enjoy it, good on you.Both are the same car. Just different in HP. It’s no different than some ICE car models that one has a 4 Cylinder engine & the other has a V6 or V8. I’m being honest & unbiased when I compare the i7 to Air. I used to love my DE until I replaced it with the Stealth. Once I got the i7, I didn’t even want to drive the Stealth. My stealth has about 800 miles & it has been parked in the garage since I got it last May.
