    Lightning Lap - Hot lap with Ben Collins

    For the moment, the more reliable/less maintenance point is debatable relative to Honda/Toyota ICE mobiles

    Lightning Lap - Hot lap with Ben Collins

    It's corporate communication with story telling It was still nicely done To be having Ben be able to push the car as much as his did on the track and still have a cool conversational tone during the run speaks to how easy the car is to drive quickly

    Lucid Air Sapphire goes UNDER 2 seconds plus UNDER 9 for the 1/4 mile!🙂

    These videos provide exposure and this one was quite positive. At work I score risks from a Regulatory perspective, my manufacturing colleagues may score some risks differently. The point being Doug has his scoring approach and the cars are typically driven on the street (common denominator) so...

    Sapphire apparently limited to 250

    Thanks for providing this topic After I received my GT-P I visited the Boston studio The guys there were very well informed One of them said pretty directly that if I wanted to get a Sapphire I should act quickly as they were going to be extremely limited Honestly brushed the comment off as car...

    Lucid Air Sapphire goes UNDER 2 seconds plus UNDER 9 for the 1/4 mile!🙂

    Thanks for sharing what looks from the outside to have been a first rate experience. Did any of the cars have any issues? How did the GT-P do (alway curious as I have one of these)?

    Lucid Air Sapphire goes UNDER 2 seconds plus UNDER 9 for the 1/4 mile!🙂

    I certainly saw it as so. This thread is about enjoying what the now released to customers Sapphire can do on a track, and your input was asking about sales projections. We all know this is a low volume car for haves, all Lucids at this point are for haves.

    Lucid Air Sapphire goes UNDER 2 seconds plus UNDER 9 for the 1/4 mile!🙂

    Of course they sandbagged the number, they live in the tech world Supposedly the motors are good for 570 each Didn't the 1111 for the Dream look funny? I thought someone in the know said a while back the Sapphire is doing 1500+ HP

    First production Sapphire just rolled off the line

    Imagine the videos they plan to make from the track event. Maybe the Stig makes an appearance to show owners the capabilities of the car.

    Power reduced due to low battery, charge now

    I hadn't driven my car in about a month and had done at least one software update in that time. Last week when I went to my remote garage to get the car, the dash had this message: "Power reduced due to low battery, charge now." The state of charge was 51%. Customer care had me do a power cycle...

    Savage Geese just dropped his Sapphire review!

    There are folks with collection that include say 7 Ferraris (amongst other fun cars) for example. What I am saying is these folks are likely to be the Sapphire customers, and in this case the guy (no idea what else he has) ordered 3 Sapphires.

    Savage Geese just dropped his Sapphire review!

    I had my car in for service today and my advisor mentioned one customer who already has 2 Dreams ordered 3 Sapphires. This speaks to my point about some of the customers the Sapphire will be attracting.

    Another shout out for Goose Island service I went to drive my car home this morning after not using it for about a month The dash had a red battery image and said charge immediately and power reduced The car also showed 51% charge, puzzling I contacted customer service who had me power down and...

    Any other Chicago area owners (or owners to be)?

    I used to have CAP wash my NSX, great folks and work. I do not have PPF on any of my cars but have seen their results, very nice. Stand up people. Their business evolved away from my kind of customer, wash only. I am still trying to get ComEd to talk to me about adding a new service to the...

    LUCID Ceramic Brake Upgrade?

    For a plaid the best play may be to just trade for one with the brake upgrade.

    LUCID Ceramic Brake Upgrade?

    If you are talking about the Sapphire OEM set up, probably more than $20K Rotors (extra fancy carboceramic), calipers, hubs (noting the change to center locks) and different wheels, a bunch of labor and then hwo knows what the software differences are

    Savage Geese just dropped his Sapphire review!

    Fun prediction. I think it will do much better. For folks who like pissing contests and can pay for the admission, Ferrari, Mclaren, Lambo and a subset of Porsche customers, this car will be a novelty to add to their 5 to 25 vehicle fleets.

    Savage Geese just dropped his Sapphire review!

    I think it is more about when they get heavy access within the manufacturer, they weight the content in that direction. The best example I recall is the C8 Z06 video.

    Savage Geese just dropped his Sapphire review!

    What a great job, they put a huge amount of effort into this and got heavy access within Lucid. The Sapphire is crazy fun with room for 5 adults. I wonder if there are a couple wondering around Chicago these days. Mark and Jack are ususally depressed doing SUV after SUV videos. I hope to see...

    EA is improving!

    Today in Orland Park IL, on a field trip to see a former co-worker of my wife. Only 1 of 4 chargers was broken. Folks from the area said that unit has been broken for weeks. I charged from 25% to 80% in 40 minutes, no issues.
