I traded a 2011 Audi R8 V10 Spyder in on my Tesla Performance P90D. My old boss owned a fleet of Ferraris which I used to take to the track with him, and I talked him into buying an MB-McLaren SLR. (He found the seats too brutal and used to "punish" me for talking him into the car by turning it over to me every weekend. He gave it to his dad after I retired.)
I was astonished by the Tesla. Not only did it easily out-accelerate the Audi, but its insanely low center of gravity put it on a handling par with the Audi, despite more weight and skinnier tires. It really was almost other-worldly.
The Dream Edition looks to be considerably quicker than my Tesla (2.5 vs. 3.2 secs 0-60). And the instant availability of full torque at launch is like nothing I'd ever seen in an ICE car. I seriously doubt that, unless you track the car, you'd ever be able to tell the difference between the dual- and tri-motor Lucid except, perhaps, in accelerating from high speed.
Despite my long history of buying a car at introduction and trading up as soon as a performance model comes out, I really think the Dream Edition might have reached a performance level from which going further up the performance scale might be pointless . . . especially if it comes at the price of features I need more in my dotage, such as better rear seating for equally-decrepit friends and family.
Remember that you're going to be picking up weight at one end of the car from the additional motor and probably even more weight (although more centered) with the larger battery pack that it will probably have.
I may be trying here to talk myself into not waiting for the Performance version . . . but I think the points are valid, nonetheless.
There's some likelihood that, if I take the Dream Edition, I'll add the Tesla Roadster when it comes out next year. The purpose of the Air is to carry myself and others in comfort, and they certainly won't appreciate being treated to the edge of the Performance Air.
