Glad to be on board with this, just placed my reservation on Saturday. I am buying this as a commuter car since my 2014 Wrangler struggles to get 19 mpg, this little Elio will be a sweet road trip/work car. I also have a '78 Triumph Spitfire so I know the appeal of a tiny car all too well.

Looking forward to waiting impatiently with the rest of you!

Hi and welcome from Oregon, ncarter124. If you went all in at $1K you are waiting for your number as am I and quite a few others on this forum. I hope you enjoy exploring all we have to offer while we wait for my 2015 and everyone else's 2016 Elio (inside joke you most likely will read elsewhere). LOL :) Z

I am in at the $100 level, but I think I will upgrade to $1000 on my next payday so I can nab as much bonus cash as I can. :)
Good for you. I started at $100 all in and it took me months to get it up to $500 then a surprise gift got me up to $1K. I am retired and live on Social Security so have to squeeze a lot to get the extra money out but know in the long run it will be totally worth it. :-) Z

Ok good, I'm not the only one that started out at the bottom. The good thing for me is I just turned 34 and got a sizable promotion at work, so money isn't much of an issue thankfully, I just want a good commuter car for the future. :)

You most definitely are not the only one. If you look at the map of our membership reservations many of them are for $100. :-) Z

I just had coworker stop by and ask about my Elio desktop wallpaper. He drives around 150 miles round trip per day to get to work so naturally I figured this would interest him. Turns out he is fairly aware of it and is most likely going to get one himself. I was also talking to my mom last weekend when I was out visiting my parents (when I placed my order) and apparently my parents saw a blip about it on the news, now Mom is seriously considering one too! I can't wait to see a bunch of these on the road. :)
