If MR is working on it, then surely they can extract more time until the unveil... theres a chance to beat the Nevera!Yes. This is MR bay at the Ring. They are very tight lipped about it
Got my Sapphire last week. Love it. Super comfortable seats. Smooth power delivery and totally composed handling. Actually a real “sleeper” for daily driving. One would never suspect…I'm interested in leasing a Sapphire later this year, but I can't seem to find much info on their site.
Not looking to buy, only lease.
The Tri Motor setup and the sportier suspension is a requirement for me
Anyone here taken delivery?
Congrats! Where are you located and what # did you get?Got my Sapphire last week. Love it. Super comfortable seats. Smooth power delivery and totally composed handling. Actually a real “sleeper” for daily driving. One would never suspect…
I went with a lease. Residual value is 103k. Quite a lot of depreciation. Worth every penny so far though. Car is amazingDid you guys end up Leasing?
#48. SW Florida.Congrats! Where are you located and what # did you get?
Did they let you test drive a Sapphire?I went with a lease. Residual value is 103k. Quite a lot of depreciation. Worth every penny so far though. Car is amazing
No test drive, no. May be able to now though if you wanted to.Did they let you test drive a Sapphire?
Interesting. Though I checked "lease" on the website when ordering, they then switched their position and told me leasing wasn't available for Sapphires, so I bought it outright. I wonder why the discrepancy?I went with a lease. Residual value is 103k. Quite a lot of depreciation. Worth every penny so far though. Car is amazing
Now that is interesting....it was made an option a month or two before I took delivery for mine. Be odd for them to offer it and revoke the option within a couple monthsInteresting.

Hello Mr Sapphire!Now that is interesting....it was made an option a month or two before I took delivery for mine. Be odd for them to offer it and revoke the option within a couple months
I think 150k is a bit low, but reverting it to the GT-P's price would be great. Of course, I'm not sure people in the market for a Sapphire would care much... although the potential for a new audience is exciting. It all depends on how much it costs them to make, which we will never know.Pure, Touring, GT msrp have dropped like 20-30% in the past few months. Wonder why they won’t lower the price on the sapphire. If they could drop it to 150, I bet it would be a lot more desirable. The 250k price is just stupid. Only makes sense if their goal is to NOT sell them
I mean it would still be $60k more than the plaid. $40k more if you compare track pack plaid to sapphire.I think 150k is a bit low, but reverting it to the GT-P's price would be great.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic, but what about the extra luxury? The far better handling? The "included" track pack? I'd argue an extra 60k would be a BARGAIN for that..I mean it would still $60k more than the plaid. Which seems fair for an extra 0.1s of 0-60 performance.
The price gap between a model S LR and an equivalent Air Touring is $10k for reference
