I changed my config to Rivian Blue and am hoping its more like that photo. I know the lighting condition it's in will make that change, but some photos look super teal and as much as I want to be driving in a moving tiffany's box, I'd rather it be slightly darker.I love the blue in the photo. I assume it is "Rivian Blue" but it looks a little darker which appeals to me, I always thought Rivian Blue was too bright, but my wife likes it so that is the preorder.
Funny how the lighting can change things.
I kind of thought about that too. After a couple of BMW X5M (15.6” and 15.2” rotors) it almost feels naked without big rotors (they work amazing also), but that would probably eliminate the 19” wheel package and with a 200hp motor on each wheel the regenerative braking capability probably means you really won’t need much in the way of mechanical brakes. ???I know others had complained about the size of the brakes... but I love the size of those front calipers.
Sound deadening materialWondering about the black composite looking panel where the front fender goes, labelled with a green R, and the sill panels labelled fr (front right) and rr (rear right). Thoughts?
Finally!! On behalf of all R1S reservation holders:R1S spotted on the Assembly line. Posted by RJ.
Just protection for assembly IMO. No other reason to have them labelled with stencils.Sound deadening material
