    Temporary car...

    And...it's done. I was running out of time right before the NYC event was announced and before we got more news on impending Gravity deliveries I had to make a move. Since I'm not an existing owner, and since the G-DE was reported to not get me any earlier a delivery time frame, I was not...

    Gravity [Grand Touring] Reservations Tracker

    Haha, while the doors definitely tickled my inner kid cool factor, I hated them for all sorts of practical reasons. I don't deal with child car seats which is probably one of the areas where they might be of a practical benefit, but I have a few friends that ride with me all the time and were...

    Gravity [Dream Edition] Reservations Tracker

    Ugh, back to the GT for me. Same spec. Original order date of 11/7. I'll follow up with details on another thread I started about shopping for a bridge car. My hand was tipped a week ago (before hearing about May deliveries) and I'm no longer in a hurry to get my Gravity. :( I'll resubmit my...

    Encounter Extraordinary - NYC March 28-30

    I don't think "invitation only" applies to an event that lasts 2 days at a publicly accessible existing Lucid Studio...?

    Encounter Extraordinary - NYC March 28-30

    It has a date range so I would assume "any time during working hours from the 28th til the 30th". On the other hand, they've sent out announcements that Gravity will be at "XYZ Studio on <date>" before and the car arrived before that date and was there for a week or two after the date, so if...

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    I think they've always said that they'll build the more loaded configs first, one of a few priority points including prior ownership. So a loaded GT in the right colors and trims might be able to be built alongside the DEs.

    Gravity Delivery Discussion

    If there is a supplier issue they are working through (as they've said) then the end of year event could have been basically to just build what they would build right now today, but with the available parts that were hand-selected from the supplier in question. Basically, it was easy enough to...

    If leasing is not available, would you cancel your Gravity order?

    Gravity 75 mph Range

    Is frontal area calculated from the convex hull of the front projection? Or is it calculated continuously? The various height settings shouldn't change the frontal area by much as it would only be a few inches of the tires that would disappear inside the rest of the area. The space under the car...

    If leasing is not available, would you cancel your Gravity order?

    Yeah, kind of. But in this case they are offering $15k incentive + $5k more for Tesla owners is $20k off, but only if you lease.

    If leasing is not available, would you cancel your Gravity order?

    AFAICT, taking a 27 month lease on a P3 with the current incentives and buying it out the next day saves you over $10k on just purchasing it. If you own a Tesla, even more.

    If leasing is not available, would you cancel your Gravity order?

    How short do they offer? Their offers page shows a minimum of 36 months for their current "offers", but maybe they have shorter leases we can negotiate?

    If leasing is not available, would you cancel your Gravity order?

    This is how I've been considering my decision about what to get while I wait for Gravity to reach deliveries. I can find a stop-gap car, long term rental, buy a cheap car, etc. while I wait, or I can lease/buy something I actually want to own even if it is not for long, and just place the...

    Gravity 75 mph Range

    Was that a misquote, or did they really skip a zero there? 1.306 is 30.6% higher. Some other observations - dictionaries have also embraced the definition that exponentially can cover "quicker and quicker" which basically means anything that is beyond linear. One reference even showed a graph...

    Choosing gravity GT vs DE

    I'm not going to get into the logical fallacies of your leading questions. I will just make some statements of fact. I fully believe that the DE drivetrain is well developed. I have believed that for a week or two. I am not making a case that it was cobbled together. I don't believe that to be...

    Choosing gravity GT vs DE

    There was a long discussion about whether DE is a "parts car" with a rushed drivetrain, or if it was a well-planned and executed variant. The late announcement of it suggests the question, but I think there is plenty of evidence that they've always wanted to do a P version anyway so the...

    Choosing gravity GT vs DE

    Absolutely! But, by the same token. "We thought it didn't exist, but now it does" does not equate to "any mention of a DE, even ones that failed to pan out in the ordering process, are absolute evidence that they've been working on the DE drivetrains since then". That's a guess, and there is...

    Choosing gravity GT vs DE

    Maybe they never said it to you, but they said it to my face on 2 occasions as I was looking over a show model that had the badging. Once at the headquarters. But, yeah, they've said a number of things that represent more "current plans" and lack of pass-down than specific guarantees, so take my...

    Choosing gravity GT vs DE

    They are currently offering DE with 20/21" wheels. Was that planned all the way back to 11/2023? No. It wasn't even planned all the way back to 2/2025. That change happened right after a number of people (including me) got phone calls and said that they weren't going to go for DE because of the...
