I wonder why Lucid didn't set any track records with Sapphire?

If Tesla would've copied these lines instead of the disgusting polygon they went with, the Tesla cyber truck wouldn't have looked half bad lol
It won't count until it starts production?Seeing as though this thread is off topic anyways

Oh damn, I really wanted a sub 6 time! Now it sadly seems unlikely the sapphire can do it.. but who knows with lucids chassis engineering.Seeing as though this thread is off topic anyways

On the other end of the spectrum, the Z06 was rumored to set a sub-6.. I think that the ZR1 will beat the GT3 RS, along with the mustang GTD(yes that is why it is 300k, it is a gt car for the road)! If this really happens, the entire world will be on notice and americans will no longer be a joke in track cars.(if the z06 even being out didnt fix that yet)

Yes they did and they can go quicker in time. The Lucid Sapphire WILL set times but the pre production prototypes don't count. So once deliveries start it'll try for good lap times but remember it ISN'T a track car.
And the thread is on point.
Under 6? No chance there's no production road legal fully homologated car that will ever do that I don't think.
Under 6:30 maybe.

Sorry, I meant under 7.
I thought they already started putting the Sapphire into the hands of reviewers?
Yes pre production prototypes. The production variants aren't far off.

@Sapphire™ Have you seen the latest savage geese video? The sapphire almost beats the Z06 and the GT3 around a track! Put proper trofeo rs(or cup 2 rs) on it and it would likely beat them!
Just some fun. And it's definitely funny!
Agreed…. It’s like the Plaid comparison vs super cars
You’ll love the Z06 it’s amazing
6 months in with mine. Not sure the 458 was better or not.

I agree! The Z06 is an amazing deal, and it is one of my favorite cars!^^^^^
Isn’t sapphire 250K plus?
Z06 is 100 k less
Apples to oranges
Ones a 4 door Lincoln lookalike and ones a revolutionary looking sports car
Some of the comparisons are almost cringe, worthy
Just my take
However, the GT3 IS 250k with markups and porsche customization options.. so what would you say about that? And we cant forget about corvette markups..
I love the Z06, but give the Lucid its credit. For gods sake its a 5 door sedan with cargo capacity rivaling SUVs and some of the best rear legroom. In addition, it is electric and has had some amazing engineering put into it(and no, I am not saying that the Z06 didn't, I have massive respect for how they benchmarked the 458 instead of the 488 for emotion). I think both cars are worth their price(although I think the lucid should be 200k, and the corvette for that level of performance should be 150k lol).
Also, in what way does the lucid look like a Lincoln? I don't see any similarities in character lines, flow, color treatments, or cohesion? Your Lucid trashing on this forum is getting ridiculous. Why are you even here?
Exactly my point of comparison of a five door family sedan versus a proper supercar
Apples/oranges…… it’s like the plaid comparisons
Just my take on the comparison with the Z06. This seems to be the common theme of bystanders & cars and coffee events in regards to looks of the air. I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Some love some don’t

I get it! For a supercar, the Z06 is phenomenal value.
Also, I have just realized that the Lucid has almost NO comparison in the hypersedan space. The GT63 E Performance and Panamera turbo s e hybrid come close, but even those are more super than hypersedan.
In resect to Lucid, being their first car and platform. What they've done is truly remarkable and is basically an all around car and no one comes close to that aspect.
