2025 Lucid Air Pure — anyone else: Good independent shop for a pre-purchase inspection?

V8TravelerCommunity StarterNov 7, 20252025 Lucid Air PureSacramento
2025 Lucid Air Pure, about 96,000 miles. Looking at a used car locally and want a genuinely independent PPI, preferably someone familiar with this brand. What do you ask the shop to include besides a basic scan and lift inspection? I'm in Sacramento. Appreciate any ideas on what to check first.

Get the messy numbers in writing first. Ask for out-the-door on the 2025 Lucid Air with fees, add-ons, and rate on separate lines. If they balk, that's your answer. On “anyone else: good independent shop for a,” that was the fork that mattered for me. This is from a 2025 Lucid Air in Sacramento with 96,000 miles. Was this after sitting overnight? I'd rather look cautious in this thread than stuck later.

PPI is scheduled. I'm not depositing until I see the 2025 Lucid Air notes. Going to compare one more dealer before I decide.

I'd want competing paper, not competing stories. Keep sale price, trade, and financing split on the 2025 Lucid Air so a “good payment” cannot bury a worse deal. Do that before you talk monthly again. This is from a 2025 Lucid Air in Sacramento with 96,000 miles. When does it actually happen? Not trying to scare you — just skip the expensive first guess. Sleeping on the number either way.

Don't send a deposit on a phone quote. If they're pushing term length to shrink the payment, the 2025 Lucid Air price probably got worse. Screenshot the worksheet if you can. Parts cannon is a personality type I try to avoid. If the story changes I'll post the new data.

Coming back with numbers — insurance in Sacramento changed the 2025 Lucid Air comparison more than the sale price did. Not wiring anything in the meantime.
