Finally arrived! Got the 8 steps 3/20/2023 and picked up the R1S today at 130pm. 19 days total from Normal, IL to SSF sc including prep time. Long time waiting but very happy with the end result. Wife says she loves her car.

This happened to me - wanted the Forest Green and she said it was too metallic. She loved the Compass Yellow but I'm not so sure...

Funny. I went to the first mile looking forward to showcasing the Forest Green to my wife. She saw a Compass Yellow and said :we're getting that." So now we are getting CY. (Which, tbh, was my first choice but I thought it was a bit too bold for her.)

I wonder... if I had said I wanted Compass Yellow would I have wound up with Forest Green???

Finally after lot of back n forth got my R1S PPF wrapped with Ceramic Pro Kavaca matte wrap. It looks legit..

Back from Ceramic Pro PPF and coating. Still trying to figure out a good option to black out R1S on the back. Getting running boards in August.

How did you manage to get the emblems blacked out? Vinyl? They look great! Nice touch.

Looks very nice. I have been thinking about going full bumble bee with our Compass Yellow when it finally arrives (soon). I want to keep the 21s for range, but thinking about blacking out all the chrome. Nice to see it done. Thanks for sharing.

Three years to almost the day, my R1S is home. I have actually had it about a week, but have been busy, you know… looking for panel gaps

Truth is, it’s pretty clean. The lift gate is a little off, and there is something on the sunroof, but other than that, it’s an awesome vehicle.

Delivery was great, both my Guides came and surprised me (one was promoted and then I got a new Guide). It was great to hug two strangers who I have only communicated with through text.

Not Going to lie, it’s a lot harder to park and fit into the garage than my Mini, but I am getting used to it.

The only bummer, they didn’t put any windshield wiper fluid in. I wanted to smell it so badly.

Anyway, here is The Lorax!!!!

Welcome to CY club. This toy will make lot of heads turn and look. i get that all the time. enjoy the attention.

 

[Beanejar]

For real about the head turning - love it - seems to just make people smile and ask questions.

When you need a little more attention at critical moments…just added a bit more bling.

Well, might as well share some photos from when we picked up our R1S a couple months ago. We now have a lovely set of soon-to-be-even-rarer compass yellow Rivians.

When we showed up, the delivery team didn't know we already had an R1T, and moved another customer's delivery over so we could park beside the R1S. It was a pretty big hit with the whole team.

Looks good! Can't tell if you blacked out the metallic front underbody and rear bumper. If so, mind posting additional pictures of what that looks like?
