If Gravity was offered in Zenith Red, that would be my first choice.

Our Air is Zenith Red, and it's a really great color. I still get inquiries and compliments on it at the carwash.

But I gotta say after getting the Aurora Green Gravity, that color has surprised me with its distinctive yet subtle hue and its chameleon-like response to light play. It also seems to show the reddish dust in our area less than the red.

Interestingly, in the right sunlight, I feel like my AG Gravity looked brown today, which did not thrill me. Otherwise, I agree, it looks surprisingly great. Better with stealth than my platinum, but that’s a champagne problem.

I do see brown in the color as well as gray. But since Supernova Bronze might have been my choice had it been available, that's okay by me. Our Honda Odyssey is a similar color to the Gravity bronze, and it's a color that works well on a large vehicle.

Trust me, I am thinking about changing my order to Black and just wrapping it to get the color I want.

Weeks ago you corrected me and said that the Lucid paint shop can easily change to a new color for each vehicle that comes through. While I realize that there's probably a challenge matching various trim pieces to the paint, that does make me think that more paint colors should be something they could manage. I find all the current paint colors to be a little staid. So I've also considered a wrap to change the color.

Matching paint from the body to the plastic pieces that are added during general assembly is a big challenge and why it takes so long for Lucid to release a new color like Bronze and Silver for the Gravity.

A color like Zenith Red would be difficult for Gravity because of the unique tinted clear coat used on Zenith Red. All colors of Gravity have black trim around the roof. A Black Gravity is the easiest to paint since the black trim is the same as the body and it can be painted in a single pass followed by clear coat. Aurora Green, White, Bronze etc. require a pass through the paint shop for the black trim followed by a pass through the paint shop for the body color and then both trim and body receive a top clear coat. In the case of Zenith Red, you would end either have to make two passes through clear coat (one for trim and one for body) or the black trim would end up with red tinted clear coat. I am not sure how tinted clear coat on black would look but two passes through top clear coat would add cost.
 
My dog is in the second row 80% of time I am in car and the seat belt warning dings off and on non-stop (he’s about 60 lbs). I wish it would just stay lit, but not keep dinging. I can swipe away the warning, but the sound persists and it’s incredibly annoying.

And yes, I could buckle all the belts when not in use, but that’s annoying too. Wasn’t an issue in other cars.

it was a problem in the Air for me and my 140# great pyr. I just had to plug the seatbelt in. 😓
