Actually increased reservations will be forthcoming, we happen to know the history -
Newbies see-
Secured big factory
Engine publicity next week
delivery schedule 2016
They have a better game plan and optimism than we here- the process will take on a whole new prospective, and when they visit this Elio owners site won't understand why folks would be upset with so much in place, and a 1 year wait.
My guess- reservations will go up after the engine hits the news, and the closer to 2016, the numbers will continue to rise.
AND of course, when production begins it'll fly off the charts, and will be adored for being early and receiving the incentive, and paid $6800 base price! ( we all know it HAS to go up)
