don't forget the truck as we are getting is being sold to us for the same price that was promised years ago I would not be surprised if the price goes up in the next year.

Announcing our new "CLUBS" section where you can join or create a Rivian club or group! You can use this new feature to conveniently plan and discuss local events, gatherings or other club/group related topics.
So we encourage you to join (or start) special-interest and regional-based Rivian clubs at: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/group-categories/clubs-groups.1/
Spot on: First month, regular customers, a “white hot” ticket; and if production continues to be slow, by the second month, super-heated.First off, take any 'expensive car' experience you have pre 2020 and throw it out. Given that you have a Taycan 4S presumably you know about the crazy games Porsche is playing. 25-100K for a GT3, 150k over for GT4RS, 20k for a GTS. Once again these are all mass produced.
Look at what happened with the Plaid. Were going 10-25k over. Had a friend drive his for 3 months and sell it for 15k over MSRP.
If those are too niche look at Chevy. Tahoes going 10-20k over list. Corvette Z06 15-50k over list for the spot, the first ones that show up will be 100k over. Regular Corvettes going for 15-25 over list.
I would take that bet.
Early Rivians will be the hottest ticket. Someone in Socal could put one up for 125 and itd sell within the day.
To the guy offering 1k...LOL.
Confirmation dates for LE orders placed early March 2019 arrived by email. R1T April - May 2022 and R1S May - June. One to two months apart..Just got my confirmation today that I am expecting delivery march-april 2022. I am willing to sell my spot for 30k. Already confirmed we can change delivery name and address and payment info in the reservation. Launch edition R1T. Able to still change color and options it seems as well.

Did you purchase their reservation? Seems like a helluva deal.FWIW, people have been willing to sell their LE reservations for $5000.
No that was me that offered it to Toade for 5k because he is a great guyDid you purchase their reservation? Seems like a helluva deal.
Yeah, I had multiple offers at $5k.No that was me that offered it to Toade for 5k because he is a great guy
Unfortunately I am very far east in Canada and I suspected that the delivery timeframe was going to be outside my window. I had never imgained that my LE reservation would go outside 2021 which I will lose my funding (still processing that - love the r1t). If anyone is interested in a LE res send me a message.
I've gone over the math, logistics, etc.. Guesstimate of my max pack R1T probably being July~October '23... Even with all that, there's only so much I'd be willing to take an early reservation. Some of the numbers thrown out here are just crazy talk.Seems like a

I don't think there is as much demand for reservations as some holders might think. I haven't seen anyone else even offer $5k.
You should also keep in mind the extras that come free with an LE reservation. For me, with a regular reservation I'd be paying $1800 for 20" wheels and $1500 for grey... With LE I save $3300 with the free wheel upgrade and paint color I like (LE green). So paying $5000 for someone's reservation is only costing me $700. Obviously if you are going with a different color, or 21" wheels, the math doesn't work out the same for you.I've gone over the math, logistics, etc..

If anyone has an LE coming early next year that you don't want or can't make work, hit me up. I'll pay a bit. Won't be $5K. But yes, I have cash in hand for a successful reservation transfer.
All fair points for consideration. Wasn’t looking at it that way specifically. Personally I’m still committed to Limestone+FE as a color combo + 20” AT w/ off-road package.You should also keep in mind the extras that come free with an LE reservation.
