Compiling A List Of Questions

[Cali Chris]

I will be attending the event at the Village at Corte Madera on Saturday, July 19th and wanted to put a list of questions together that I can ask while I'm there, so if there is anything you need to know post your questions here and I will do my best to get as many of them answered as possible.

Q: Can we get a physical demonstration of the front fairings being removed? - on video of course

Please ask about some more details for Johnnykilo concerning his 6'9" body and how/if it will fit. I tried to get some answers but other than being told the answers were on the website I didn't get very far. Maybe it is difficult to understand why a 5'1 7/8" little old lady wants to know the potential fit for a 6'9" man. I did explain I was asking for someone at elioowners.com but. . . . Other than that my visit was a huge success. I loved every minute of it and I did make a big splash. Now whether it will get over the internet I have no idea. I do have a couple of great pictures of me with Jerome Vassallo but I am going to have to figure out how to download them. I know Sam Bock, Social Media Specialist, took some pictures and there was at least one taken of Jerome and his wife and I. I was there 4 hours and my impressions of the Elio were:
1. The Color was even better than I expected and I loved it.
2. I found it easy to get into and out of but suspect I will prefer traveling alone in it which is what I do most of the time.
3. My swim bag did fit in the trunk as long as the handle was completely collapsed and the trunk lid did close with it in it.
4. I found the Elio had "grown" in size in my mind so it actually appeared smaller from the outside than I expected. I can understand why people call it a tiny car. LOL
5. I am going to have to lose the left saddlebag because it was difficult to get the door shut because of that. For those of you who have not read my posts, I have lost around 160 pounds over the last few years but was left with rather large saddlebags on my thighs. In this case the arm rest and my saddlebag had a little battle over who was going to give. We did get the door shut but . . . . LOL

I did not ask any technical questions but I spent a lot of time talking about the Elio with staff and with people who spotted my dress and came up and asked me about it. I enjoyed sitting on a bench near by and asking people what they thought. Heard a lot of positive comments about the Elio during the process. I met a couple of men wearing the tire tread Elio t-shirt and visited with them for a while. All in all, I was there for 4 hours, enjoyed eating lunch and spending time visiting with Proud to Be and his friend. And I got to meet Jambe briefly when I first got there. He had been there since about 9:30 in the morning and I got there around 12:30 so he was ready to move on. Proud to Be simply walked up to me when I got near the Elio and said I bet I know who you are! No question about it, I may be short but I still stand out in a crowd. I love my Elio!!!!!! :-) Z

Z, great to hear that you are even more excited about the Elio. Great pictures and you did a marvelous job of converting your Elio shirt into a dress. Thanks for the great feedback on your experience and being the Elio ambassador that you are.

Is there any printed material at the on site locations like this weekend in Portland. Love the high gloss brochures.... Just wondering if they have anything like that for the elio. Or do the just refer you back to the web site.. Looking for some pics to line the walls of my cubical.

They did hand out some 4 x 11 inch glossy cards with "Say hello to Elio" and the Creamcicle Elio front on plus the Elio motors emblem on one side. The other side is a black, uh mmm excuse me, licorice Elio with the 4 goals for the Elio, a brief history of Paul and EM and some other marketing information. I did not see any other promotional materials there. Obviously you will need 2 so you can post each side but then maybe you can download some of the other pictures of the Elio and print them out. That is what I do. I have created an Elio binder with my reservation receipt and various pictures of the Elio. EM actually has provided a downloadable 8 1/2 by 11 brochure for that purpose. I printed one on photo paper and then took it to Staples and had it laminated since my printer is ink jet and I spend a lot of time around water. Good luck on finding pictures you like to select and print - there are a lot of them out there. I just happen to be lucky enough to own a photo printer and the paper necessary to print them. :-) Z

What ever they have to offer I will scan and post.

Would you please ask them to confirm OBD-II support. There has been some confusion about this point recently so it would be nice to confirm that the Elio will have a standard OBD-II connector and provide some level of standardized data.

Yes.

Any, any at all, milestones about progress with the engine. Seeing things happen is perfect for keeping the attention of the public, we, err us too.
