Hi All From #11002

[SR.pitcher]

Been watching these for about 3 years now. Liked the 6800 base price and the day I went to sign on this year it was raised to 7300. No deal for me there. That and the delay to 2017 sometme for production. While I understand the reasond for it, its bad to be counting on something and hade the rug pulled out from underneath ya.
I too a lease that came up in Aug this year, I could have managed for about 3-4 months w\o another car but the delay till '17 was a straw on my back. I got another Hyundai.
As for the snow issue try using a large sheet over the front windshield towards the back. Just remove it with snow or ice on it. Works for me.
Can't find a decent road test review on a production model. The P5 is the closest but video looked rough driving it.
Actually interested in helping to demo these in my area,.We have 3 Pep-Boy here.
Would deposit full price up front if I could get first production car produced & guaranteed delivery.

That being said, "Welcome to the party."

Please explain what you mean by this: Would deposit full price up front if I could get first production car produced & guaranteed delivery
Are you asking for an Elio out of the entire first run; or you want the first off the production line?

As for demoing for your area, that is something you have to talk to Elio Motors about.

Welcome SR.

 

[Marshall]

Yes, hoping we can make a good showing against New England today. Maybe even a win if they take us lightly. We'll see.

I suspect you are VERY HAPPY today.

SR Pitcher, welcome from New Mexico. The Elio challenge requires a lot of patience. Many of us have had to purchase new cars since we made our /elio reservations. That doesn't change my desire to have one but the continual delays are frustrating. I keep running ahead of the grim reaper and hope to get my Elio before he catches me.

Well, just bought a Toyota Camry Hybrid. Great car. It'll hold me off until I can get my Elio.

The Elio has always been advertised as the =And= vehicle, not a primary, even though some will have it as a one and only; or the primary over the others. So those depending on delivery as a primary vehicle should reconsider their decision.
