DA called today and said there's a hold up with metal roof cars due to some part shortage or issue and that cars have been built with metal roofs but are unfit for release as of yet. It's a guess of his but he cannot see this delay taking more than another 4-6 weeks. How reassuring. :rolleyes...

As far as doing ceramic coating, I don't think the professionals doing the coating justifies the cost. There are inexpensive coatings that hold up almost as well as the expensive pro-only coatings and I reapply every 6-9 months. Applying it is very easy and quick. The only thing I don't do is...

And your cost for this process? That's all I'm asking. I have had this done to many of my cars in the past and now the price seems higher. Maybe it's just that it's a larger car vs higher labor costs vs higher film costs, or all 3.

I'm not inquiring about ceramic coating as I do that myself. Only curious about the cost of the paint protection film. STEK films are hydrophobic and supposedly don't require ceramic coating.

I was quoted $2000 and $2500 for the front bumper/hood/fenders/mirrors and $5500 and $6500 for the whole car. Is that similar to what others have been quoted? This is for standard PPF film, not the Matte finish. Installers used either Xpel Ultimate or STEK.

Over a month since VIN assignment and "in production". Status still unchanged. What's the holdup? Supposedly will get status update tomorrow from DA. C'mon Lucid. I sold my glass roof car 2 weeks ago and miss it.

If you buy the car you need to pay tax/title/licensing fees. If you set up an Montana LLC, there is no sales tax burden. Lots of info on this online.

Sold, awaiting new Touring hopefully this month.

Sold.

Almost 3 weeks has passed and my car is still listed as in production. Hmmm.

From the IRS instructions for filling out form 8936: "Transition rule. If you purchased, or entered into a written binding contract to purchase, a qualified plug-in electric drive motor vehicle after 2021 and before August 16, 2022, you may elect to treat such vehicle as having been placed in...

Early Dec 2022.

Just relisted my car on eBay after winning bidder didn't pay. Must sell as new Touring with metal roof due in this month. Don't spend thousands more when this car is still almost new. I absolutely love this car.

Relisted on eBay due to deadbeat bidder. Starting bid lowered to $106,999.

Not sold yet. Buyer hasn't paid. :(

I like the regenerative braking in the Taycan a lot better. You can use the accelerator pedal with no regen whatsoever but 95% of the braking is regenerative when you press on the brake pedal. It doesn't feel like regenerative braking at all, but it is.

Air Touring with Metal roof. The status changed to in production and VIN assigned a couple of days ago. Anyone else?

Dashboard updated to "in production" and VIN assigned! Is this the first known Metal roof Touring in production?

Relisted on eBay with starting bid $109,999.
