Lucid Air Owner's Registry: Add Your Details Here!
Taking Delivery This Week
Been a whirlwind few days. I placed a reservation for a GT back in June and selected the box that I'd be interested in a Dream Edition if one was available (at the time they were sold out). Fast forward to the end of November I receive a call saying a slot opened up. I wanted to get a car this year (tax benefits) so I agreed. I configured a white Dream P with 21's, but since I configured my car had not yet entered production. My rep did not know how long the process to build was since they've made so few cars and each one is being hand-inspected, so the chan ce of taking delivery this year was getting slim. Last night (Dec 5th) I received a call saying someone who had ordered before me had backed out and if I was open to changing colors to black (everything else the same) I could take delivery this week. I went through the financing today with B of A, and paid the delta through ACH on Lucid's portal and that was it. It was a very Tesla-esque experience (in the best way possible). I'm expected to tale delivery this weekend. If you have any questions, ask away. I'll be filming my experience with delivery and the car here https://www.youtube.com/user/jon4lakers if you'd like to follow along. This forum has been a great asset throughout this process and I'd like to pay it forward.

Thanks. I was actually debating wrapping it anyway!Congrats! And hey if you still want white you can wrap the car. Easy peasy
Just think of the myriad of white wraps 3M and all the other companies offer, with metallic and other color effects possible. I’m debating on wrapping my zenith red but but going the other way by wrapping the silver roof a black with just a hint of red metallic that would show up in the sun, leaving the small silver air logo on the C pillar unwrapped.
Great! I'm assuming you are taking delivery in Beverly Hills. Say hi to Matt and Danny! Also if you get a chance, see if you can meet up with Aaron, service manager.
Your help was amazing during this process. Torrance actually. I’m down in OC so that’s the closest.Great! I'm assuming you are taking delivery in Beverly Hills. Say hi to Matt and Danny! Also if you get a chance, see if you can meet up with Aaron, service manager.
Ahh cool, glad they opened that center up. I originally wanted to pick it up from there but ended up doing it in BH instead. Very happy for you!
Who in Torrance is your SA? I’ve been working with Chris Gordon. Their studio will finally open this weekend and the Newport Beach studio on 12/18.
Since you seem to know opening dates, any word on the San Diego studio? Lucid site says Q4 which means they have 25 days left.Who in Torrance is your SA? I’ve been working with Chris Gordon. Their studio will finally open this weekend and the Newport Beach studio on 12/18.
Sorry, I didn’t ask about the San Diego studio. I can ask him tomorrow if he knows anything about the opening. That studio is only an hour away from me, I wouldn’t mind going to it too.

I don't know who yet unfortunately.Who in Torrance is your SA? I’ve been working with Chris Gordon. Their studio will finally open this weekend and the Newport Beach studio on 12/18.
I found out the San Diego Studio is tentatively due to open on December 18th. It may or may not happen on the 18th but it’s getting close.
Thanks! That is only in 11days. Not sure why my DA did not have that information. Looking forward to getting over there as it is only about 6 miles from my house vs 2-3 hour drive for the ones in LA.I found out the San Diego Studio is tentatively due to open on December 18th.

Slight change, I'm now able to take delivery in the just-opened Costa Mesa location. Waiting on the date.
I drove by that place today (on the way to drop my Tesla for service, the Tesla and Lucid SC in Costa Mesa are less than 100ft apart). Looks like it's almost done. But the floor & showroom seems like still having a lot of things to fill.Slight change, I'm now able to take delivery in the just-opened Costa Mesa location. Waiting on the date.
Ironically, I saw a crew putting up a ....Rivian sign on the building near by as well. So we will have three major EV SV right near one another.
As a reservation holder (and shareholder) of Lucid and Rivian (and TSLA as well), I'm super excited !!
I happened to be in the Costa Mesa area and decided to drive by the Lucid Studio & Service Center in CM. There were workers inside working away, it doesn’t look like it’s opening for a few more months. I can’t wait to visit it when it opens.Slight change, I'm now able to take delivery in the just-opened Costa Mesa location. Waiting on the date.
