    Purluxe Carpet

    It is, but it is the least noticeable of the combinations. Black up front and gray in the back.

    Factory Tour Frequency?

    I've only been following Lucid since March. Does anyone know the usual frequency for the factory tours? Maybe sometime in the fall, or is there only one per year? I know the April 24th tour was posted sometime in March. Is that the usual amount of time for notice? My wife can't make this one...

    Lucid's Future

    I think Lucid needs to find a way to make the quality of their driving dynamics more apparent. The car rides so well, and is so smooth. There is no sports model, performance suspension, AMG, M, or V model. It's all baked in like older BMW. Without it being pointed out, many people don't realize...

    Change to Referral program ? Is it on it's way out ?

    All this time I just thought the referral store was limited. Who knew Shop All didn't mean All. Thanks!

    Purluxe Carpet

    Purluxe only comes in Mojave. 99% sure it is Graphite. that's what image searching shows to me and what AI says. I'm not 100% sure since I don't have one in front of me. The mats are carpet. If you get the all weather Lucid mats, you could go with Graphite or Black. If you check the image...

    Change to Referral program ? Is it on it's way out ?

    I'm in the same boat as Pittsburgher. I was set up for enough points to do the factory tour with one more Touring referral. Got the wife on board and everything! With my sights set lower, have they ever offered the carpeted mats in the referral store?

    There goes my baby!

    Thanks for that Santa Cruz interior pic. It is one of the best pics of that interior I have seen.

    Mojave Leather

    I'm not sure what you mean by center stitches; and I'm guessing no one else does either. OK, I see what you mean. I have a Touring Tahoe, and I do not have a stitch line down the center of my seat. I found a pic of a GT that does. My guess is that maybe the centrer stitch line correlates with...

    Driving Comparison of the three "cheap" Airs (Pure, Touring and Grand Touring)

    Less weight over the front wheels make a big difference. I had a Cadillac ATS 4cyl. RWD drive loaner, and it felt like a go cart. I was really looking forward to the ATS-V. Then I received a V6 ATS AWD loaner, and the car felt so much different with the extra weight of AWD and 2 cylinders over...

    Throttle response, power delivery

    I also feel the 60+ boost. Samo23 mentioned turn off traction control, which I was thinking about reading through this thread. I haven't had mine for a month, but yesterday I was driving in the rain thinking about how in my previous performance vehicles there was either slippage, or a total...

    My Surreal Sound Pro fix through settings

    It is a 2025 I just picked up 2 weeks ago. I asked about these fixes and they were familiar and said they had been performed. The non-music major tech insinuated that the software fix "turned the bass down". I'm not sure what that exactly means, but I'm essentially "turning the bass down" for...

    SSP Woofer Buzz

    The first track I played in my SSP vehicle sounded like I had blown speakers. It was a song from the Superman soundtrack by Hans Zimmer. I had another version of the same song, just recorded by a different orchestra, and there was no problem. Some tracks sound like crap in any system. They all...

    My Surreal Sound Pro fix through settings

    YOU GUYS! After some thought, I spent a few minutes making adjustments to sound settings and came to a place where I'm satisfied, (although I reserve the right to keep experimenting). Most of the sound system complaints have resolved around the bass. When I picked up my Surreal Sound Pro car...

    Just got so lucky with my order

    To address your question regarding the way the Air will feel vs. the M3. The M3 will feel lighter and more direct. The Lucid will feel heavier and ride much better, as well as be much quieter and handle bumps much more deftly. It won't turn in as immediately. The video looks like an older M3...

    Disappointing sales process causing me to pause

    When prices are fixed, then there's no wiggle room if the next month's discounts change. In general, there isn't as much wiggle room with the Lucid/Tesla sales model as with a traditional dealer. You could pick it up 4/1, but you don't know what the exact price will be. I do know that February...
