This is first time I have seen an Elio in person and it is beautiful and finely made. The exterior is smooth and sleek, with all the elements flowing well. The rear hatchback, the front wheel skirts, the door and body panels seem to fit without gaps and flex. The interior is cozy, fitting my 6 foot 210 pound frame very well, and I was able to sit in the rear seat with some comfort, even with the front seat all the way back. I was told that the next prototype will have 2" of increased headroom in the back.
It does seem to exude a quality that belies its $6800 list price.
To see an Elio is to purchase one. Too bad we have to wait, at least, another year....
