I get that locking in theoretically helps with the DoE loan, but it is not a guarantee. I also just don't want to be on the hook for $6000 more without a defined timetable or even final vehicle specs for that matter.
I don't think I'm going to lock in. At this point, I'd feel better locking in if there was an actual target date of production, or a better feeling that there was a serious funding source. I've got 50 shares, and if Elio does go to production I think the value of the shares will definitely...
Dear Andrew,
As many of you know, the journey of bringing the Elio to market has been an awesome undertaking in which many milestones have been achieved. The engineering is almost complete, the factory is secured, our supplier and service partners are engaged, and we have multiple opportunities...

I would recommend moving it. You can't ever really do anything with the stock as long as it is with VStock. Even if you don't have a plan to sell it soon, you'd still want the ability to.

I still don't see how this announcement means a delay, it just confirms they won't start building until the end of 2016 at the earliest.

Don't see the need for the negative spin, elio has said production starting 4q2016 for a while now, so even if sn#1 rolls out on December 31, they still meet that goal.
I don't really care if the article implies there is a delay to reservation holders. As long as any time there is news, it is good news like this, then we should all be pretty happy.
Forward progress is the most important part of this project. Every time we hear something like this, the...
