For those that track these things, the two GGTs that were used for test drives today at Valley Fair San Jose were both the exact same spec - Aurora Green with Yosemite. Damn, forgot to verify wheels, but i believe they were both the 22/23 Aether Stealth. The new showroom car is Aurora Green but with Tahoe leather. I really wanted to see the black, but no luck.
VINs: 7UUG1GHJ7SA007333 & 7UUG1GHJ3SA007507. Hmmm... what is difference between the GHJ7SA and GHJ3SA vins?

that's the check-digit. It's a parity validation for the entire VIN.
 
Here's a thread with the VIN structure -- the interesting thing will be all the values for vehicle attributes, "G1GHJ" above.
G - Gravity
1 - 1st generation
G - GT trim
H - drive unit; "H" seems to be the code for GT, and DE will be different
J - body type?

FYI you didn’t link anywhere
 
Interesting to note that the showroom/demo vehicles so far are 007333, 007507, and 008680. Ive seen it mentioned elsewhere that Lucid VINs are randomized, but I wonder if we can just ignore the last two digits and (at least for 2025) those are vehicles numbered 73, 75, and 86.
 
My first test drive vehicle was Tahoe and I mentioned that I thought they were Yosemite. They told me they had 3 - 2 Yosemite and 1 Tahoe and they cycle them through with 1 always charging. So, I bumped myself back a slot to get a Yosemite so I could see it.
 
Well, it's obviously all completely subjective, but you're probably not going to like my take on it having driven the Gravity with Yosemite.
 
I like the Yosemite. It's not true white like the Tesla interior, the salesman said "think of granite" and that clicked. It's very close to white. It also goes well with the white weave on the doors. The wood they had with it was slightly darker than what shows in the configurator, but I liked the match.

I agree that Tahoe isn't very orange, but it is a lighter tone than what I see in the configurator, which does invite the comparison. It's still not for me. Too colorful even if you might not call it "orange".

I'd still like to see the Ojai in person at some point.
