Agreed. they look good until you get around to the front; it looks like an afterthought, or the designer walked out and they had to go to production, so they just chopped it off.
V8?

FRONT DRIVE , AUTOCYCLE , OPEN TOP AND THEY ARE

THE BAD :
HORRID FRONT STYLING & A $60,000 PRICE TAG !

Thanks for sharing David.

For some reason, I like the look and style of this. But...

Tires look muy expensive, 2 19" and 1 20"... website is lacking for sure. Pictures of the interior? Only 4 web pages + order page? No list of color choices on exterior? Options? Rome wasn't built in a day, but that website was. :drum:

Oh, lol, and the "Comments" field on the order page has only 1 "m". NOT good.

Try their fb page, it has more info. I thought the early design looked better. They even built a tandem seater that took some design cues from Porsche.

Hmmm put covers over your own and friends cars and call them prototypes.
For me, going right to left Slingshot/CanAm - Nissan Leaf - maybe a prototype - another Slingshot/CanAm - last unknown.
I can say that I was impressed by the shot.

Gizmag. Youtube. $77,000.00 seems rather high for such a vehicle; IMO.
I wonder if one create a different grill for it?

The overwhelming theme with all these "Other" 3 wheeled modes of transport is... $$$ Meaning almost all of them are multiples, mostly many multiples of what PE is trying to accomplish.

Go Team Elio!
