To all I am torn between the Catalina Cove and Borealis color for the R2 when I order. I test drove the Catalina Cove and the color is absolutely beautiful in person. I know there is no way I will be able to see Borealis as the color has not come out yet. Is there anyone in the Maryland, Virginia or Washington DC area that has the Borealis R1S that would be gracious enough to meet my husband and I to see what the color looks like in person? We would be happy to take anyone to lunch or dinner or provide you the money to take yourself if you would meet us as a token of appreciation. Any takers please, please let me know and respond.

Thank you so much future R2 owner,

Terri

Those panels really don’t show what it looks like in the sun. If you can’t find someone with an R1 in that color (I am nowhere close sorry) maybe ask if you can take the panel outside and see in real sun and shade what it looks like.

I was able to take the panels outside at my showroom FWIW. Granted, not the same as on the vehicle but it helped.

Unfortunately R1’s in Borealis are not very common, I have never seen another one besides ours. I was told by Rivian that there were about 400 R1S and 400 R1Ts made in Borealis. But I don’t really know if that is accurate. Hopefully you find someone nearby.
