Forget those ugly new wheel covers they reduce aeriodynamics a small amount but are going to make changing a flat a challenge. Also please place a skinny spare under the hood.

Ever change a wheel on a motorcycle, try it if you really want a challenge ! The removal of the outboard half of the wheel cover (spatz) will be as simple as removal of rear wheel fender skirts (inserts) of the ''50''s and ""60''s .

I am hoping that a silver-blue color will be added. Check out the comparison photo with the Cadillac on the Elio website. The lighting gave the P3 (silver) a light blue tint, and it is awesome! It gives the Elio a look more upscale than the current color choices. If you like it, send an email to Elio and let them know. Maybe we can get it done!

I am leaning toward the Silver...but might pick the sour apple. Need to see the colors on the actual cars first. My wife likes the sour apple.

The dark grey contrast panels if painted the same color as the vehicle might look better overall!! (P-4 version) RB

I'm getting white, mainly because it should cool more efficiently and heat from an internal combustion motor is waste heat anyway. I'm going for 85 mpg. White is also more visible than darker colors.
