Hahaha good times! Thank you for having me on the show!! I'll still take my C8 Z06 all day over the Lucid 🤣🤣🤣

[gabechiplin]

I think not being a prepped drag strip showed the real abilities of the Lucid. What an amazing engineering achievement.
Great tube as always Rory😊

"I almost had you" ... i cant believe rory didnt reply with "it dont matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winnings winning "😂

Rory and Jesse are both brilliant presenters. They raise the category review level, and well compliment one another.

I look forward to watching each of them again and again.

More video with Jesse and Rory. They have great chemistry.

The Lucid Air is a beast a total beast of a car, love it ❤

Z06 sound comparison, hands down. I went from a plaid to a C8 the C8 1/2 the power and twice the fun. Recently got a 23’ Z06 and having the time of my life.

Electric ⚡️ is the future I will miss the sound for sure. God Bless all you Car lovers out there.

More and more featuring the Lucid Air please and thank you. Maybe you can get your hands on an Sapphire version. 😉 👀

[somerandomfella]

Performance is similar. So the question is, do you want screaming performance or a silent assassin?

[jerrywarren]

I have a GT-Performance. It's a wonderful car, super comfy and goes like mad.

[funkyhomosapien]

I have no better excuse to take a break from completing my portfolio. Thanks Rory I was starting to go mad 🤓🤪

[pba]

I would still choose the Z06 anyday over the Lucid! Just because of the Design and the gorgeous sound!

Should have done a lap time comparison!!!

[EEEZSolutionS]

What a great car the Lucid is... and I say that as a 2023 C8 owner!! Loved the video and wasn't surprised at all the results, including the breaking test. I hope Lucid kicks Tesla's A__! It is so much a better car, and it is beautiful!

[Miata]

Fun stuff! I love my Lucid and have driven a few twisty mountain roads, but haven't tried a track day yet. I have no doubt that the corvette would paste the Lucid on a lap time comparison but would love to see the big 4-door electric give a proper lap time at any widely known track.

Now this is some news I can use. That Lucid is insane. I wish I had a spare $190, 000 laying around.

[G-Rated]

Honestly, for the Lucid to have nearly double the torque & power as well as price, the gas powered C8 ZO6 is super impressive to me! Even more impressive now than before this test. 🔥

[mercedes.c_audi.q]

He's right... I wasn't expecting that. 😮

[alexrusso]

The “Monicaaa!!!” Reference was not missed on us! 10/10

[Gmoneyluvu]

that Lucid is mental.., it's beyond fast😊!!!
