There will be a major reshuffling of vehicles here as well when the time comes. The tentative plan is to sell the Fit, the 92 Miata and the 240Z, and the Elio and probably an NB Miata will take their place. Still not sure how I feel about that...

I'd have to sell my BMW 330D M Sport Auto, over 230 hp, incredible torque, 0-60 in 7 seconds, 156 mph, phenomenal handling, every extra BMW could provide.....
OMG, what am I doing here?

I've always had a fondness for the Datsun 240Z. They were the epitome of cool when they first came out.

I'll have to dig around for photos of the 240Z, guys. I might not even currently have any, but I will look. I turbocharged it with the Crown kit, the damn car goes like stink once you hit second gear.

Well I went ahead and reserved at $250 today. I may upgrade that later, but right now, that is what I can afford.

That is great news. Congratulations! Now look for things you can give up to help reach your goal. Little things like lattes and other fancy coffees, all forms of tobacco, alcohol, fast food, etc. You might be surprised at how quickly you can accumulate the money needed once you have a goal in mind and are determined to reach it by a certain date. Also look for "found" money - even a penny on the sidewalk may lead to bigger things. :-) Z

Congratulations with your decision to invest in an Elio <>84mpg, enclosed autocycle and safe! Many of us have have had to juggle the money issue, not a problem do what you can, when you can.With years of gas prices increasing, I know the value of an Elio! My secondary trips have been reduced over the years because of high gas prices. The Elio will allow for more recreational driving once again with 84 mpg, hwy. Also to mention; the Elio will reduce the cost of fuel to get to work and back! The Elio is a win-win.
Hoorah! Terrence in Maryland

tazairforce, here you go! Sorry I can't come up with better, but the car is buried in the garage, and it hasn't been on the road since before I went to digital photography. This is a watercolor done by Dave Lord; it's painted Mercedes Astral Silver (lacquer with a clear coat) with a bit of airbrush shading on the hood and sail panel, and red pinstriping.
