Hey...isn't this guy on our forum? o_O

"Elio Motors has inspired quite the following, while simultaneously provoking several writers and other self-appointed guardians of the truth to decry it as a “scam” on a high order, or simply an overoptimistic goal which cannot succeed."

I found the following quote taken from the link in post #1 to be very interesting ....

"Elio said also the first year 5,000 reservation holders signed on, the next year 33,000 did. Beyond this, he said he believes 250,000 reservation holders may sign up meaning 100-percent of the plant’s production capacity is accounted for (18:17 in video)."

from that, it doesn't appear that they will be closing the current reservation period any time soon ....

I thought it interesting too.... so I was consulting my crystal ball and found about 80% of that was marketing optimism, but about 20% was algorithmic pointing out if reservations keep coming in the way they have since 2013, he believes they can hit factory capacity but be stuck with a new dilemma (back to marketing optimism) of what to do when you have too much of a good thing. :):(
