Spot on. I have many friends for whom buying in cash is easier, because they like owning and knowing that nobody can take it away from them and it's theirs. They also feel more comfortable in that case modifying the car, adding PPF, etc. That said, those folks are missing out on opportunity in...

I am so into this. I hope this comes to the US.

Got it, I see what you're saying; I misunderstood what you meant in your first post. I agree with your analysis.

I just want to be clear: the issue with your post wasn’t that you had issues, but the lack of detail and specifics about those issues. I’m really glad we got more detail (and more people with whom they can hopefully test!) Thanks all

I would bet you're right, but I'm less convinced they are audio components necessarily. Could very well be differences in communication components, processors / ECUs, etc. But I do think that in the early days, Lucid had a 'fragmentation' problem, where they had no choice but to use similar, but...

Man, so am I. And, tbh, so is MIllbrae. <3

You simply request a payoff letter from the lessor, and they give you the full amount which would cover the cap cost, minus funds paid, plus interest for the number of days you've had the lease. Because I had to snail mail a check, I added on like 5-7 days of interest to the payoff, because the...

Yes; my plan was to buy it, because the lease rate sucked. If I could have gotten it at $7500 off without leasing it, I'd have done that. But this was the only way to get the $7500 and only took a bit of extra paperwork and a few days. I confirmed it multiple times with the dealer and with...

Amen. Context and details solve most problems. <3

For example, you could lease a vehicle and then buy it out early. In that case, you’d be responsible for the residual and all the monthly payments, but only the interest for the time you had the lease. It very much depends on the lease language. Some of us (at least @SaratogaLefty and myself)...

(Just throwing in a thanks to Bob, Colin, and @marqie for fielding this so far, and to all the forum users for posting great questions! 45 minutes left! Keep the great questions coming!) :)

Spot on, with one adjustment: hi-res audio is not currently supported in any vehicle with CarPlay over wifi. This is an Apple limitation, not a Lucid limitation.

Apple CarPlay supports lossless audio via W-Fi up to 16 bit / 48 kHz. Wireless CarPlay uses Bluetooth only for the handshake. After that it uses Wi-Fi. Even though Wi-Fi offers more than sufficient bandwidth for hi-res audio, currently it isn't supported. In order to get full hi-res audio (up to...

Yes. It is not as high-quality as connecting via a USB cable, but is better than Bluetooth streaming due to Bluetooth's additional compression..

This one I can take as it isn't audio, but is a good question. Wireless CarPlay requires Wi-Fi as Bluetooth doesn’t have the necessary bandwidth to send all the data needed to run the CarPlay interface or apps. Bluetooth is just used for the initial connection. It creates a local Wi-Fi...
