I'm curious if anyone with Launch Edition LG BM reservation out there still waiting?

I've had access to the Shop for a week now but haven't seen anything in my color of choice. My guide says I'm still good for Oct - Nov for my configuration, but I haven't seen anyone take delivery of LG in a while.

Anyone else out there? Bueller???

They are probably waiting to run another batch once they know how many launch green orders are left to be fulfilled. I got one of the LG/FE bunch and saw a lot of others delivered around the same time.

Part of the problem is not locking in the specs on the launch edition orders. Allowing people to continue to change their colors made their rollout a mess. So some people who didn't order a launch got one and others are still waiting.

Probably right. We're stuck waiting for the Canadian launch edition people, then they'll make one final run of LG.

Makes no sense, but that's Rivian's MO.

I'm in that boat but I'm in Alaska and still haven't been given an updated delivery window.

Ouch, sorry to hear. That news had to sting. I see you're in Illinois so probably didn't want to take delivery until this month for tax rebate but late this year is an additional 3-5 month delay to that. Yowsers. Hang in there, it's still worth it. Maybe by then you'll be able to get factory PPF.

You may well be right. I hope they'd have the sense to run a batch of 10 or 50 or whatever is the right number. There must be folks waiting. As I understand it, there's very little time or cost to switching between paint colors in their paint shop.

Anyway, the wait goes on.

Yes but now being delayed until oct/nov means i won't get it either. They only funded the rebate enough for ~4k vehicles.

I wonder if they are out of LG paint and need to order more. Then they would only want to order what is needed.

Whhhaaa. Well that's just dumb. Hopefully that gets changed because that is a VERY small window.

I currently have access to the R1 Shop and it is mostly Adventure models and Forest green interiors. :(
I am willing to switch to certain colors, but want my LE.

this is another thing that confuses me. Nov 2020 with a shop invite, where I'm July 2020 and no invite. I thought they were going mainly in preorder date order. Not that I would really go for anything currently in the shop, but it just feels like my preorder has been lost in the system.
