Here's a couple of edit: atlantis and vivid. I got excited about my car and didn't take many pics of the other specs.

I believe that’s Atlantis blue.

Would very much appreciate any photos / videos of Meridian blue if possible. That is my spec and have yet to see any real good pictures of it.

My colour, too. You are right, not many photos available.

Naples quoted me today on front ppf and full ceramic, just over 5k doesn't seem bad... Thoughts?

Atlantis is a great color saw it at the factory, would have been an amazing color if it had more purple

I was quoted 5500 for FULL PPF, and 2450 for FULL FRONT AND ROCKERS on the east coast.

Midwest is Charging almost 10k for FULL PPF.

My local guy quoted me $3500 + tax, but I'm nervous about bubbling issues with warranty if we start seeing that on US cars...

That's a fantastically horrible thing you just put in my brain. Now I have to worry about that also!

When did the paint bubbles appear? Cars were made in what, Sept/October? Maybe they would have started to show?

That’s an incredible price. Personally I think we’re passed bubbling issues. However, if it’s a real concern for you, then, perhaps you’re best off having your dealer do the PPF because they will somehow feel a bit liable in the event that there are any issues.

Haven’t heard anything recently from my dealer, Lotus of Orlando, but my car does appear to be on the showroom floor now...

I was quoted around $2800 for a full front PPF kit + install at Chicago Auto Pros (great work, but typically on the expensive side). The kit was full front (i.e., full hood/frunk, “bumper”, full fenders, and mirrors). My dealer is working on a PPF offer as well…

This is at lotus Dallas right? What is the quote for your services?

I've considered doing the partial ppf and ceramic coat, and I'm curious what they would be charging.

 

[morphious]

I was planning on having my whole car wrapped. At this point I have lost so much interest that I am doing nothing but driving it. My daily is a 1998 Lexus ES 300 and it still looks brand new with 75k miles and living in a garage. I will just spend the wrap money on my detailer and deal with any issues that may arise. Honestly, it is not like this car is a "Mona Lisa".

 

[EZcheezy]

Lotus of Austin received at least 4 cars! I got to look around. first time seeing one in person!

absolutely gorgeous

Yes Dallas I’m doing partial as well.
I think around $3000 plus the window $600..

 

[silent cilantro]

Has anybody been able to get a window sticker using their VIN? Or is it too early for that since not all certifications are in place yet?

That's really cool that deposit holders are still seeing this car for the first time. Love the energy.

Car arrived, already in secure storage, got to FaceTime with dealer.
