I'm around the four thousands,all-in 1K (early 2014) but i don't expect it even in the 200th day. By the time they're in full production w/out any problems it's gonna be late 2018. What they're talking about these days is 2017. Note that Elio started mentioning about loosing money in millions...
Change to P4 if they don't have the option. I paid for it looking at the picture of it.It used to be more American. A roadster. If not I'll modify the rear the rear with fiberglass,trim/bob the front fender,fill the hood where the front light is and get the headlight somewhere else.Again that is...
I think you nailed it. I've been thinking why would they delay it argued with friends about it and no one ever said about engine failure,so ur suggestions is the most credible to me.Thanks.
You're right.Most of the people I talk to are mad that Elio would go Japanese car style than the much preffered hot rod type.Not only that but they changed it to worse with the slick hood too.And the the back quarter window,the front fender and the real sore boxy rear.What an ugly view.Put the...
You damn right.The reason I dropped $1000 was for the one that doesn't look like a coffin and the full ugly fender and the other ugly headlight on the hood.Look what what they did to it now.Also lately I read that the price is with manual gear only & they want an additional 1K for the...
You're right.Can you believe that they hipped us with the real sexy hot rod looking car with one of kind beautifully rounded rear,roadster type headlight,fender & sleek hood & now we ended up with a boxy,wussy,ugly thing? The tee shirt we got,the stickers,the promises...is gone and they still...
If it had much of a drag then all these drag race & Formulas cars wouldn't be without fenders.If they use rounded fenders then their car will flip over because of the wind going under.Imagine what will happen with this ugly full fender the Elio scientists are trying to install on a once...
You're damn right man,the new fenders are the worst fender of the century.Top that with the ugly headlight and the boxy rear,the dream car is now a P.O.S. People think they can make 84 MPG all the time & anywhere.No, wake up! it's on the highway and it is when there is no wind,the asphalt...
You damn right Inigo93,I would rather get 75 or even a real 65 with the same body style they had on our tee shirts.The car that looked like a roadster is changing into a Mickey Mouse or a Tonka car with the ugly full front fender and the rear end...the headlight...they're gonna ask us for more...
From Dallas,Tx.,i'm in & waiting too but not for the orange front full fender type.The buggy eyed roadster is more Texan.I'd rather go 60 MPG with style than 90 MPG in that thing.
Bingo! That's what I was thinking about.Autoxdriver said it all.They have to come up with a good rear suspension & tire.You can't miss a pothole.You have to literally target one with the front wheel to save the rear wheel.I still like the car for that price as long as they don't come up with an...
I hope they don't settle with that full front fender & ugly front light for the sake of the 84 MPH. I wouldn't mind 70 MPH if it is the green or silver roadster prototypes.Yeah,I'm one of those who is freaking out to see it changed because now they may ask us to pay more for what was originally...
I agree with Jerry Greif.To reach their goal of 84 MPH they're gonna get it uglier.It's not only the fenders but also the rear that looks like a coffin.Then that damn front light on the hood...To get it like the way they showed us for $6800 they may force us to pay more.I was gonna buy a 2nd one...
You damn right.I paid for an American roadster type Elio & now I'm gonna end up with an Indian Ricksaw look alike.I hate them too.They are ugly,cheap,bulky...This means to get it the way they showed us for $6800(as in the green or silver type)we have to add extra money and end up more than...
It would be nice if they keep Elio as American as can be.Keep the roadster look,simple half front fender than a motorcycle saddle bag-like enclosure on the front tyres.Also keep the roadster type front lights as in the Green Elio instead of the usual kind at the front,it'll easier to work...
