    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    @joec please remove me from the tracker, I have decided to cancel my order. Happy Holidays everyone and good luck to those still in with a shot of EOY delivery.

    LCID just went below $8

    You know I'm not a trader or an analyst, but I keep thinking about AAPL at these price levels. For me LCID seemed like the perfect target for Apple if it was ever really serious about getting into the EV game. Tech is industry leading, styling fits the Apple motif, and at a market cap of just...

    I live in Houston. From what I could see, any TX resident can join the CU. I did it all online using an automated system. I had to upload front and back of my DL to prove I am a TX resident, but when they ask for eligibility there are 6 options (from memory). 3 relate to government employee...

    Finance Rates

    GEFCU. Can become a member by donating to one of 3 libraries ($15 donation). Just got 3.29% over 72 for my wife's car ($72k). Will be using them for my Touring but will likely go for their 4.49% over 84 option.

    I had to hassle them a bit but got the call today followed by a prompt email.

    I'm not sure any halo cars are money makers these days. But it does a lot for brand awareness which is absolutely key for a startup. And honestly, it doesn't seem like much of a stretch to produce. I don't think it's like Porsche's GT division or Mercedes AMG where there are a ton a new panels...

    Those poor poor Lucids

    Those AEB tests were cool, not seen those before. Thanks for sharing.

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    My DA has been out of office for a few days. Called the Lucid direct sales line and spoke with someone who told me a VIN has been assigned to my car, but he wasn't able to share it with me and sent a note to my DA to reach out. So not quite VIN assigned yet (because I haven't seen it) but...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    When I looked with Geico our 2 car policy (X7 + E63S) dropped by $320 a year (X7 + AT) which was a nice surprise.

    Open Letter to Peter and Team - a rant

    I am also an investor in LCID from the CCIV days, albeit a very small speculative investment. I agree Lucid management could be more communicative. But I think everyone has a very short memory. The world essentially shut down for 12-18 months beginning in Q1 of 2020. It was tough working in an...

    Finally, my review! 2000+ mile road trip

    Thanks for the review @Volund. Really glad you enjoyed the trip and really appreciate your perspective on the car.

    That feeling when your spec is being assigned VINs, but your DA is out of the office…

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    Fair enough, let's not say nefarious or cynical. Let's just say I disagree with the rationale. I don't see why they were building anything that wasn't a confirmed customer spec from a reservation on the books. So those that are available must have been customer ordered vehicles that the customer...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    Why are they estimating anything at this point? They have an order book with 30k+ vehicles to deliver. Honestly I felt it was a bit rough that "legacy" (read pre-DE release) reservation holders had to wait while a whole bunch of "new" (read post-DE release) GT reservations were executed, but I...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    Yeah I get why they did it, but it is a cynical play in my book. Building higher spec cars to try to upsell folks rather than building the cars in the order book. I have really been torn, especially since they offered me the original pricing again. But for me it didn't make sense when they...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    I'll be honest, this has been such a roller coaster for me. Still no sign of a VIN on my QG so the chance of the rebate is very slim. But as expressed here previously I find that very annoying, given that I had one of the earliest Touring reservations. But I get it, production decisions had to...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    Well I’m gonna be that guy. I’m feeling very let-down by this whole process. I ordered my Touring in 2020, pretty much as soon as public reservations were available. After watching the progress of the DE and AGT deliveries I was hoping for premium buying experience to go with this premium...

    Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

    For anyone in Texas I just closed a loan on a different car today at 3.29 over 72 through GEFCU. Texas residents can become a member by making a $15 donation to Austin Public Library. They also offered 4.49 over 84. Plan to use them again for the Touring when it arrives.
