Body should be all the same color. When you take ownership, you can do what you want in 2 tone. Remember that visability is of prime importance since this vehicle lacks mass in frontal or rear view. Grays and black would be a no no for me. Thought white was offered at one time, but does not appear in list now?

I believe white is called Marshmallow now

White (marshmello), Sour Apple, Creamsicle, will likely have the greatest distant vision recognition and Lord knows with the crazy drivers we have on the road today, any advantage you have is a blessing (no matter what kind of vehicle you drive)!! RB

That must be an old Elio poster because the yellow color in no longer being offered. That's kind of a shame. I have a yellow Hyundai Veloster and that is the color I want. Small vehicles need to be highly visible and that yellow demands attention. BTW, their new CAD drawings show the front wheel covers mimicking the current rear wheel cover, not what is shown in this older poster.

I kind of like the rear wheel cover in that picture, I wonder if that is an old or a new design.[/quot

Spatz on the front drive wheels are the way to go, reduces air resistance and the drag coefficient. The Luftwaffe learned this in 1939 with the JU 87 dive bomber as they covered exposed fixed gear with spatz and pilots reported increased speed due to less drag! RB
