Nope. It only lasted about 10 minutes. Also, it wouldn't stream for me at first, so I missed most of it.
Terrible video quality in portrait. EM didn't even post the link to facebook until it had started...
And then only in response to my question of, "So where's he link to the live feed?"

Vail is dropped about 10:30. Left the dang podium in the way. What I can see looks nice. Then a bunch of people get in the way at 13:00. As a useful video to check it out this sucks.

OK finally at 14:00 they start to get the views you see in posts above (and below?)

It looks like the dashboard has proper dials and not that rotating wheel/secret decoder ring nonsense! Woohoo!

 

[booboo]

Flattened wheel, AND NO ELGIN DASH. It is gone!

color is black. cup holder is there, leather seat, water washer bottle scooched up against the radiator, so they've gone conventional with that.

New radio. New rear seat moulding with arm rests. Convenient pull tag to release rear seat so it folds down.

All we need now is *ellow!

About 80 people were watching on Periscope, tiny audience

I really like the flattened steering wheel, ever since power steering came to be, I have wondered why no new wheel design, is it only me. Brilliant !

I was wondering if the E1C that is going to the LA Auto show was all metal or does it have the composite body?

The gauge cluster isn't a surprise. Those are the ones that were shown in the dash assembly back when they were showing the E1A status.

Looks like a tilt wheel lever on the left side of the steering wheel?

 

[slinches]

Looks like it to me.

Here are my notes from those pictures:

manual trans

driver seat belt still over left shoulder
new steering wheel w/ flat bottom
AC controls same as P5
side defrost vents below speaker grills
map pocket in door
power window switches in door arm rest
gauges are same E series analogue (non-Elgin)
Tilt steering lever installed
Suspension:
  Upper A-arm round tube welded
  Lower arm single box beam
  No cover on fuselage side
Molded in Elio logo on front bumper
Windshield wiper is installed (not particularly aerodynamic design)
