2023 Rivian Quad Motor R1S Launch Edition Launch Green/Ocean Coast 22" Sport
I've never seen a Gen 1 Quad R1S - Ocean Coast w/Meridian Audio. Do these exist? I know that Ocean Coast was released well after production began on the R1S and Meridian was dropped around February/March 2023. Does anyone have an OC interior with Meridian Audio? If so, what color exterior? Do you have the other early extras like dual 12V batteries, wood inlay behind the headrests, steel suspension subframe, 12V outlet in the frunk or dash, etc.

Not really. R1S started shipping to non-employee customers in bulk around Sept 2022, which is exactly when they started shipping Ocean Coast. Meridian audio was still very much a thing at that time, and so were all those other things you mention.

I don't personally have one of those R1S, but I am absolutely sure they exist in pretty much every color.

I remember reading that Meridian was phased out after Feb 2023, so you might have a tiny window there. I've been considering a Launch Quad w/ meridian as well... If you are buying pre-owned form Rivian, you can't trust the stock photos and description-It always says "Rivan Elevation Audio", even on 2022 models.

I have looked and looked and I have yet to find one in current used inventory or anywhere in older used listings online. I am curious because I have been kicking myself for a while for changing colors back and forth which delayed my delivery. I definitely would go for OC over anything else just not sure if I could have gotten the unicorn of an OC with Meridian or not. Just wondering if anyone has one.

Of course that probably means having the steel subframe suspension which would need replacing for sure and dual 12V which I believe was more problematic than the single 12V although I think there is some debate on that topic.
