That is if the $6800.00 ain't a bunch of bull shit.. My first order will have NO options..So with 1000 sent and 500 bonus my balance should be $5300.00 + Sales tax +title .. If I like it I'll load order # 2 with the goodies, If I don't I'll either write the other grand off or try to sell my second spot to recup my $ownpayment.. I could have trouble doing this because Elio claims we will have to fill out our build list 60 days in advance.. My orders were made about a week apart ..That could be problematic with my plan..I do not want to be stuck with two if the car turns out to be a crap bucket..As of now I only have about 40% faith in getting the first..Shit , I'm still waiting on t shirt & bumper sticker, Elio claims they sent me 10 days ago..

This may be where the biggest leap of faith comes in. I think they'll stick to <$7K at least for the pre-orders, however I don't want to pay $500 for cruise control. $500 for the colored interior panels. $500 for a hitch receiver. and so on......

It seems they would let the first ones be loaded up at a big discount package just for the advertisement.. Doubt you will see any 3 million dollar adds from Elio next Super Bowl

One would hope, but until they start talking we can only guess.

This, for me, will be a one time event. I'll buy my Elio with the options I believe I want/need and write a check for whatever that comes to. If I am going to be charged $500 for NAV then I don't need it. Leather will likely be the only option I might splurge on and that will depend on the quality of the offering. All else will be relative to price and my perceived need.

Paul Elio has said that he wants to keep ALL options affordable; will keep suppliers to (<ost + 20% markup). (sorry the 'see' key just went out on my keyboard)!

They had to resend my t shirt. I think someone needs t shirts out there.
