Trying to decide: Fathom Blue with Platinum or Stealth

[Nomogaz]

I am eager to leave the Tesla world and excited to join the Lucid world. I’m hoping take advantage of the current end-of-quarter incentives.

I’ve settled on Touring and Fathom Blue. I can’t decide between Platinum and Stealth. I’m leaning toward Stealth. Unfortunately, after repeated searches, I haven’t found many photos of Airs with the combination of FB and Platinum. Of the vehicles available now or in the next two weeks, most in my price range are Platinum.

If you have FB and Platinum, please post a photo. If you have an opinion, please share it.

Thanks in advance!

I bought the exact same car, delivered end of Jan 25. (Air Touring, Fathom Blue, stealth, picture below) I spent a long time deciding and after seeing the cars side by side in showroom, chose this one. I really liked it over the Platinum.

What options are you looking at? I got the SSP, DDP, CC options (it was what was available on car)

I went with an 18 month lease.

Thanks, and let me know any questions. Feel free to DM me.

I got my Air Touring about 3 weeks ago and also went with fathom blue and stealth. I also got it with the glass canopy, which I love.

 

[Nomogaz]

I forgot to mention I’m also getting the glass canopy.

I think I wasn’t as clear as I intended. I would love to see pictures with Fathom Blue, glass canopy, and platinum appearance. I’m concerned I’m might grow tired of it over the course of a 3-year lease.

I would like to get 19” wheels, Mojave PurLux, SSP, DDP, and CC. Most vehicles that are available now have leather and SS which is frustrating. I know, first world problems.

I am probably a minority here, but I prefer Platinum. And since it is cheaper than Stealth, it was a no brainer for me.

Red Zenith with platinum and glass roof Touring picked up three weeks ago. I know it does not help you, so apologies. Picture in my avatar.

I think you would get less tired of stealth, but in fairness, you'd likely grow tired of either over a 3 year lease. Have you considered an 18-month lease? That's what I went with and while over the 18 months it cost me about $2,500 more, for me it was totally worth it to have the optionality. That would bring me to the 2027 model year and I expect that there will be many improvements from now to then.

Neither. Zenith Red with Platinum.

Re: Platinum vs Stealth, it really depends on the “vibe” you feel about the vehicle and what statement you want the vehicle to make about you. Stealth is a racier look but perhaps more polarizing than Platinum. More Vegas than Ritz.

In my view, if you do like the look of Stealth, I’d spring for at least the 20” wheels. With Platinum, I think 19s look fine.

You can’t go wrong either way. Good luck!

 

[RMSko]

Funny - I just swapped out the 20” stealth wheels for 19” stealth wheels. Admittedly I needed all-season tires but I also like the look of the 19 stealth better. As you said above, it’s all a very personal decision. Also, in terms of opinions, most people will likely just say they prefer the one they own even when they really may prefer something different. Bottom line is the car is beautiful and I don’t think you can go wrong with whatever you choose.

In the vast majority of cases, the preference precedes the purchase. So it’s far more likely that people really do like what they bought.

That said, I’d buy this car in basically any color or trim, that’s how good it is. My one and only regret is not getting the 360 camera view.

Sharing photos and opinion. As you can see, I went with the '25 AT fathom blue, stealth, glass, 20's. Pics with aero wheel covers removed. It's a stunner. I spent a good 1-2 hours at the service location looking at all of the colors and color combinations in the lot. For me, the platinum trim is a bit too flashy. It looks nice, no doubt about it. But the stealth is a bit more subdued. Going to tint the windows .. won't want a gangster car but I think it's going to look sharp .. dark rear and not so dark sides. Maybe you can keep searching? If you are purchasing, or think you'll purchase your lease. I suggest PPF on the front bumper and front trim / hood. Also, ceramic is sooo nice.

You have such good taste in colors!

 

[Leftlane]

I think Fathom with stealth is one of the best looking combos I’ve ever seen. It suits the Air perfectly.

 

[Drew46]

I think you option of the glass canopy would push me to stealth. I just don't like the break in color/2-tone look of the glass canopy with the stealth.

 

[SaaSManKS]

I have a fathom blue air pure with platinum trim, and I wish I could have gotten the stealth package every time I think about it...For me, I just love the subtleness of the stealth look, the platinum is almost too bright for me...

I like the stealth although it ticks me off that companies charge more for alterations that cost less (paint vs. chrome trim). I often walk for exercise at the Scottsdale Fashion Square mall. As I approach the Lucid Design Studio I can clearly see the white model at the front but with the lights turned down, it looks like there is no vehicle in the back until I get close and can see the stealth model there. I much prefer that others not know exactly what I am driving.

The more I look at that Fathom Blue with Stealth the more I want it.

On Gravity, Stealth is cheaper than Platinum

Your 20” stealth wheels are missing the wheel covers. Did you decide not to put them on or did they forget to give them to you?
