Agreed, I just bought new tires and had the yearly done so good for the next year. As far as Lucid's present predicament at least they did not stick their head in the sand and hope for the best. I think it shows vision to get help, I am optimistic until I see otherwise.
Would that I could, living in Austin, TX I can’t get to a close place for a test drive, it’s three hours to Houston or Dallas. I was in Boston recently and was able to get in one finally. Fell in love then, been obsessively tracking inventory since. I designed the car I want on the website at this point but it seems like they might be close to announcing the 2027 cars, I can wait a month and see? I’d hate to make the purchase only to see DDP2 show up. If it didn’t no harm no foul.
They said in March that DDPro2 would be coming to the Air, but that was prior management and they didn't provide a target date.
I'd say it depends on how you use AP. When we got our Model Y in 2023 it had AP with the ability to subscribe to FSD. At first we did not subscribe. More on that in a bit. At the time AP was basically like GM's SuperCruise and Ford's BlueCruise except with those two you could take your hands off the steering wheel. And with SuperCruise it would make lane change decisions on its own if you let it. With AP you had to constantly touch or add torque to the steering wheel to make certain you were paying attention. So in my opinion / experience SuperCruise was the better system and BlueCruise was a notch above AP
They are not. I am just in buyers remorse avoidance mode, trying patiently to wait a month to see if a new upgrade drops. The fact that no one from Lucid is calling me back really, means I have nothing to look at anyway. And inventory for what i want does not exist, and does not look like it is coming either, so they seem to be clearing out the inventory they have I hope in anticipation of new Air upgrades for 2027. Hopefully not discontinuing.
I have a feeling you might be waiting, but not sure. I ended up putting a deposit down for a red with glass canopy and platinum. I don't love the platinum but i can get it wrapped to stealth. I won't have the stealth wheels but that wasn't much of a concern. The rest had everything i wanted fir a touring. If they had had a GT i would have gone with it but they only have black, and i can't deal with black in texas. Looks great, but the heat...
I agree. I don't seen anything in inventory that's a full match: AGT, red, stealth, glass canopy, 19” aero range, Mojave extended leather, DDP and SSP. I've also looked at 2025 year model resales, and I'm also not seeing great matches.
I am looking for differnt set of features and its a challenge without an option to order . Curious if they are charging you to ship car--or will they eat that cost during the promo?
I was looking for LITERALLY the exact same layout as you. I ended up putting in an order, told it would be 12 weeks, and at some point swapped to a Fathom Blue touring with PureLuxe seats in order to get the options I wanted.
DDP and SSP are also key to me, but I want aluminum roof and prefer platinum trim...Hard to find anthing with those options in my color choices. Surprised how few cars are available with SSP.
The sales rep I spoke with today said they thought the ability to place custom orders for 2027 should open "soon." Days, weeks... They weren't certain.
