Best I can tell, Paul's father had a Lord Elgin watch like the one below, which inspired him to design a dash to honor his father. Some people on the forum absolutely HATE it. It's actually starting to grow on me.
I believe that we MAY have had an influence on the location of the seat belt.Happy Mayday to you all. I have a question for us all....we have discussed everything about the Elio from the instruments to the colors available. Has any one item been changed as a result of discussions on this forum? I think the answer is "No." (I am sure G1 will let us know if I am wrong.)
So our discussions are really academic and mostly for our viewing and reading pleasure, right?
Why the fervor over anything we cannot change? It is all just likes and dislikes, in open discussion. I have been on the forum long enough to feel like this is a group of friends, and I sure hope we can have open dialog and remain that way.
Anyone watching the fight tomorrow night?
I believe the dash you posted is the display model that Paul is taking with him on the Elio tours. It seems that this will be the exact or close to the production instrument cluster version.
They are going to make the numbers bigger, and add a color variation along the guage... so you should be able to judge your speed just by seeing the color in the corner of your eye I think......

GPS knows the speed of the road you are on.o_OAssuming that you are correct...........
How would you manage that color variation on a nationwide basis.
Just an example of speed /color gradients -- (San Antonio area)
On I10 westbound from the I410 interchange you have something like the following........
I410 to I1604 ...... 60 MPH
I1604 to Bexar County line ....... 70 MPH
Bexar County line to Kerr - Gillespie County line ....... 75 MPH
Kerr - Gillespie County line .......west ........... 80 MPH
(and you know about the 85 MPH on the toll road up toward Austin)
How is that speed /color gradient going to work on a run from White Plains, NY to Monticello, NY via the Tappan Zee Bridge?
That might need to be re thought.
