Talked to DA this am and changed the color from silver to white. He thinks a May delivery is likely with the change.

Hmm. I have the exact same configuration but confirmed Dec 1. By end hat logic I should be getting a VIN any day now

I would think so.
Haha! Someone asked. A bit technical and related to my line of work (nothing to do with the female name Pam). Its a data modulation scheme in high-speed interfaces (Pulse Amplitude Modulation). A binary stream will have only two voltage levels (1 and 0). A PAM4 stream encodes two bits in every symbol (hence four voltage levels) and that's what you see in my avatar pic.
It seems all the DAs have been busy this morning. I just got a call as well. Looks like my car should be shipped next week. @bitminer4lucid, did you hear anything yet?
I received a call from my DA today. I have ordered a GT, Cosmos Silver, Santa Cruz interior, 20” wheels. I reserved Feb 2021. Confirmed my order on Nov 16, 2021.
My DA called to let me know that production delays for my option choices has moved my expected delivery to June or July. He stated all 3 of my option choices were part of the delay.
He offered that I could change my options and get a May delivery. I declined and will wait to get exactly what I want.
This was the first time anyone from Lucid has actually given me a date that they plan on actually delivering my vehicle. Before it was always the window is usually 4 months. I asked how firm June/July was. He said July should be a lock, but they are hoping to make June happen.

Interesting. First admission from a Lucid employee that Santa Cruz was a problem. It really was the white carpet!
Is this Santa Cruz interior still a problem? From the flood of messages on this thread since yesterday, that is no longer the case. Is that correct?
Yup, that’s my understanding. That’s why VINS are in process, I guess.

Like you, I just spoke w my DA & changed my GT colors from gray to white and int from Santa Cruz to Mojave. Basically he said the change would delay my build/vin from April to May. I was concerned about the carpet color being too light w Santa Cruz and after seeing others cars now prefer white. DA sounded fairly optimistic, however he mentioned that he doesn't look at the forums... Fingers Crossed!!

Just spoke with my DA going over my options as I ordered Silver with Santa Cruz and the Silver is pushed out to June /July.
If I change to White with Santa Cruz delivery would be May. If I leave it Silver with Santa Cruz delivery would be June. We are going to be away from the middle of June to the middle of July so if delivery slips a little that's alright. Just didn't want it pushed out to production in July and delivery who knows when. Bottom line sticking with Silver.

While you’re at it, can you arrange for a studio in Georgia near Atlanta?
I suggest a quick vacation to West Palm. I gave up on Texas studio. I could not in good conscience buy a $140k car without ever seeing it or more importantly sitting in it. I have had other vehicles that just didn’t fit me. The West Palm studio was great, people were knowledgeable and it is very low key, plenty of time for driving and asking questions. The car was great. I was very worried about the low roof line. I am 6 foot tall and had plenty of headroom and didn’t bump my head getting in, but I was very careful. I had an appointment and as a reservation holder they seemed to pay special attention to my needs.
I thought you're supposed to keep it with you in theory?

No, at least on my Tesla I only take the cable with me if I’m traveling far away where I’m using charging stations in case I can’t find a supercharger. I have adapters for different interfaces, Otherwise I’m charging at home so no need to remove the cable from the wall.
