Guys thanks for the positive feedback. Jermaine is a solid guy. They (Elio team) does monitor our forum. Missed my invitation for the unveiling, but I'll hit up Jermaine for the next big event. I will try and be there to report.

Thanks Joeker88 for your efforts. We all appreciate it. Now, please, work on your audio recording skills. I couldn't understand half what was said because of all the background noise.

Good to hear the news about the removal of the exhaust bulge! This should help in weight reduction and increase in aerodynamics. I am curious how they will route the exhaust without the bulge, and where it will end up. Loved the up close views of the interior.

Btw Joeker, great video, but you might want to invest in a nice microphone attachment for your phone to clean up the audio/background noise.

It does look like it's the real Viper steering wheel in two-spoke mode:

Heck, we might even be getting the Viper's air vents. :D

With all the changes from the P5, the E1C could be called P6. and more changes to come!
I would like to know why the fuel fill will be moved.
also, it has been said that some team members give different answers to the same question. I hope this team member gave all the correct answers. and if, later, the fuel fill does not move, it won't brother me. This is a work in progress and things will change from day to day.

Good video!

You make a good point which I don't think I've recognized myself. As I mentioned, I have not been happy with the answers Jermain was giving. I think it's because, as you've point out, this could very well just be considered the P6. I have noticed that this is the E1-c. What is the 1 for? Elio appears to have just changed the name of the P series to E series. Initially, I believed that a lot more would have been finalized in the E series. Maybe the E2's which will be at the show next year will be close to the final units...

I think others that have expressed in Elio (and then get attacked for having a different opinion) are seeing the same thing. Elio is spinning wheels on "busy work" while Paul hopes to find the motherload of funding. Is there a single person who would choose not to buy and Elio if the gas was on the other side, the Elgin dash was used, the emblem wasn't pretty on the stearing wheel, the headlights weren't LED, the trunk latch wasn't robust,... My 1st post said it appeared there was poor project management. It may just be there is no funding to get the project done and the workers are just doing busy work.
