    Savage Geese: Long term Air review

    He does a lot of SUV videos and is depressed. He just wants a smooth ride. On the other hand he and Jack like to rip it up on the track, but that is for other cars like the Sapphire. Remember him just laying on the floor decompressing after experiencing the top dog? Hoping to meet him some time...

    2024 GT or 2022 GTP

    I have a 22 GT-P and it's wonderful. I am chiming in more to ask what is the story with the model. It seems to pop on and off the Lucid menu, now off. Did they actually drop the GT-P version?

    NEW Hagerty drag race: Demon 170 vs Sapphire!

    I visited the Beverly Hills facility in December 2023. They have a full chassis on the floor. When I was discussing my happy ownership experience with the Advisor on site, he noted the way the chassis was designed, they are limited to a single front eMotor.

    NEW Hagerty drag race: Demon 170 vs Sapphire!

    My window sticker for the GT-P says 1111HP I have the sense from speaking with folks at Goose Island that the GT-P is really a DEP with an upgraded suspension and Lucid as many tech companies do just lowered the specs on paper.

    NEW Hagerty drag race: Demon 170 vs Sapphire!

    I would have to believe there is a lot more that just plugging in another eMotor to make something like that work. In this case you are swapping out the whole rear drive set up to go from single to dual motor. Then who knows if the wiring harness is right and of course the software. I don't...

    NEW Hagerty drag race: Demon 170 vs Sapphire!

    They only do their rated performance when driven by Ghetto criminals during a robbery.

    NEW Hagerty drag race: Demon 170 vs Sapphire!

    I liked how they illustrated the quality/consistency of the Sapphire by banging off 14 runs. Drag Times (In my view) is just some overly macho IT guy from a children's museum who likes speeding on public roads and does some drag strip work.

    Insurer would not cover a Lucid

    When I had the mobile service guy over this week to do my seasonal tire/wheel swap on my GT-P I asked how many Sapphires have been delivered through Goose Island. He said 3, 2 to one guy (who originally was getting 3) and the third to a guy who had it sit for a long time until he could get it...

    Looking for opinions on the 21" wheels

    The mobile service tech came over today to swap my winter wheels/tires for the all seasons (19s for 19s) He mentioned they get a car in the shop pretty much every other day with a problem for the 21s here in Chicago

    Review of sapphire by MKB

    Great review, he understands that going from special to extra special costs something and with Sapphire, there really isn't a comparable car. Even better are the littany of comments from people who can't afford a Model 3, let alone something like this.

    Lucid and Latte's at the Labriola Bakery Cafe in Oak Brook, IL June 8th

    Thanks for putting this together. I could do something on a Sunday some time.

    Looks like Brooks from Drag Times finally got his hands on a Sapphire....

    He did the solid job getting the performance numbers, kudos there In terms of is he the right influencer for Lucid, to me that is a strong no Isn't an IT guy at a kid's museum in real life? When you read the comments for his videos, a lot of it is the Tesla Plaid rules the world because it gets...

    Post/share your non-Lucid other car(s)! (ICE-appreciation thread?)

    I like how this approach is a fit with the Bugatti narrative, and brings the Rimac element in to juice the customer experience As a Gen 2 NSX owner, I have seen the SF90 as dialing the elements of the NSX up to a 10 (even thought it is an 8 cylinder) Lambo dialed it up to a 12 with the Revuelto...

    Fisker Ocean - This is the Worst Car I’ve Ever Reviewed ~ MKBHD

    My understanding is he is a top tier reviewer, and the videos of his I have seen show solid knowledge, approach and construction. Perhaps have a broader look at his work I thought the VinFast is supposed to be the worst car out there

    U-DRAG RACE: Acura NSX Type S vs. Lucid Air Grand Touring

    I posted this goofy video on NSX Prime. I have a Gen 2 NSX (not a Type S but I haven't seen a race between the Gen 2 and Gen 2 Type S so there may not be much difference). The braking and turning is a big part of this unconventional race format. The Gen 2 NSX has incredible brakes and handles...

    Leasing during bankruptcy

    I certainly did not intend to go down the FUD path. I was not afraid of buying a Lucid based on what I saw in the car coupled with the support they had (long term kind of support from KSA). The mention of Toyota stems my belief that the folks at Lucid built a car with enough innovation, etc. in...

    Leasing during bankruptcy

    The lease would be assigned to a new creditor. If Lucid did really go South, as I have been saying Toyota would be the most likely one to acquire them, and fold Lucid into Lexus and then sprinkle Lucid sauce into the Toyota brand.
