Could This Be A P5?

This was posted on Facebook today. Could this be a photo of a new P5? The headlights are very similar, but they are subtlety different. No orange turn indicators and they have a slightly different shape on the hood side. What's everyones thoughts?

Taking away the fact that being black and white, it looks like the P4 to me... That's not to say the P5 can't have the same front end, of course.

Yea, It's the P4, see the headlight on the left, it doesn't quite fit flush, (up near the point) the Creamsicle has the same "fit and finish" problem.

I rotated a P4 photo and they match. As for

No orange turn indicators

it's hard to have that in B&W

The hood shape also looks somewhat different to me but it is an awkward angle to be able to judge. We can hope, can't we? LOL :-) Z

The headlights look off to me.

P5 will be the proof of manufacture as they set up the assembly line. " I Believe "

lol yes folks, it is just a B&W photo of the P4, I believe from the tour stop in Chicago where they are/were at the time that post was made.

ALL 'prototypes' and "E" Series are being built in Michigan; BEFORE the Shreveport Plant 'assembly line' is set up.

Mr. Ron Thomas of Technosports Creative told me that the building of the next Elio prototype will start in August/September of 2014.
