    Gravity Testing!

    That's what they said about the Beetle in 1938....

    No Audio

    This happens persistently (btw, I took delivery 4/1 too) The car defaults to the Home screen when parked, but it's often no longer playing Audio/Music when I wake it. If I touch the "button" with two musical notes on right cockpit screen, in a few seconds audio comes back. My first thought was...

    Gravity Testing!

    I get your point (and I have 9 g-kids). But I'm still hoping they'll deliver a Gravity that's as viscerally/emotionally appealing as the Air (given the SUV genre)...to some, BMW and LR have done so. I won't buy an ungainly Gravity, and if L produces one I'll be disappointed. I'd even look at...

    Gravity Testing!

    That's actually a Cayenne, which I think is among the most appealing-looking SUVs (I just parted with mine to buy the AT)...now if Lucid can somehow get the Gravity roofline to slope gently downward as it reaches the tailgate.... I know they want a third row, and the earlier rendition looks...

    Gravity Testing!

    The Lucid from this angle looks very much like the Cayenne---also a good thing-- IMO (and cousin of the id4)

    Gravity Testing!

    Fingers crossed that you're right. The new side profile appears distinctly better than the old--tho I'm not crazy about the look of the spoiler. Props to our members here who--in 24 hours--gave this video closer analysis than the Zapruder film!

    Key Fob Lanyard

    Maybe the trunk/frunk can't be opened with just the card?

    WSJ Lucid Touring Review

    I think maybe it takes travel outside the earth's atmosphere (c/f Space Odyssey 2001)...otherwise every earth-bound car will have some combo of wind and tire noise...My Touring has a pronounced "turbine" whirl which I kinda like, and expect to eventually ignore

    Key Fob Lanyard

    Fob question---why not just give the fob to the valet rather than the card?

    Fan and Temperature Buttons

    WSJ's Dan Neil mentions this in his review of the Touring this weekend: "The Air has a few crazy-making qualities. The lustrous metallic toggles mid-dash, controlling temperature and fan speed, will blind you in bright sunlight." Except for a few other nits, he raved about the car.

    Locked in car

    I've not been locked in the car, but I find it responds much more consistently to the fob than it does to my phone (ie mobile key). if I approach with just the phone, more often than not the car does nothing until I push the handle in. (It usually responds when I'm carrying the fob too). And...

    WSJ Lucid Touring Review

    After Tidal, what do you consider the best source? Is SXM via cellular less good than the satellite version? FM?

    WSJ Lucid Touring Review

    I wouldn't say "silent"--in the garage trying to experience Tidal Atmos, the fans at the lowest speed are intrusive Driving below 40+ MPH, the "turbo whine" is very apparent , and increases/decreases depending on speed (certainly not as pronounced as Cayenne twin turbo--with gear...

    WSJ Lucid Touring Review

    I'm probably the "average person" by your definition, and I have to say I'm underwhelmed by the premium audio. Certainly no better than my Cayenne compared side to side using same sources. But I agree it's subjective in the real world. BTW when listening critically, I find the fan noise...

    WSJ Lucid Touring Review

    I agree--he's my favorite automotive writer but he's limited to a few columns of print, so his reviews are very short. Altho I wouldn't take investment advice from Dan, I was impressed by his conviction that the Saudis will keep Lucid a going concern. (Also impressed he didn't mention Tesla...

    Lucid Air Grand Touring Performance with 1,700 miles Just Auctioned for $99,500

    I don't think there's any way to sugar-coat this. If the auction result is representative of values generally (we already know the resale trend), I can't see any leasing company touching Lucids going forward. And lenders will require larger down payments, which will take some buyers out of the...

    Q1 Production 2314 cars

    Maybe…but how long/far is it from here to there? They are bleeding cash on warranty work for a few thousand cars. And US plant expansion, and Saudi plant, and R&D on the so-far unannounced segments you suggest. And they plan to run out of cash 4Q23 or 1Q24. The only plausible scenario for...

    Q1 Production 2314 cars

    Good point. Every 1000 cars delivered = +/- $120M in cash
