The Elgin dash sucks in my opinion. There, I said it. Now, where's that poll?

I think Paul said they were shooting for 20%

I meant the percentage the military overpays for COT stuff. LOL I assume Paul has more sense than that and therefore looks for value, quality and price. :-) Z

I just posted a message on the Elio web site, I'd be interested in seeing if I receive a reply.....
This was the message:
""A message to the E Team and Mr. Elio....Do you all read these posts and the posts at other web sites ??. I think NOT....because if you all did you would find that the so-called Elgin dash board is NOT well liked. If anything it is a safety factor and I'm sure once the car/motorcycle mag's review the vehicle you all will be put down for creating a beautiful machine and then screwing it up with a gosh awful dashboard. If the vehicle must have this Elgin dash then make it an option for the very few that MAY want it and leave the set-up that the P4 has. I'm sure those who have made a reservation ( all-in ) should have have a say in this matter and their opinion should be considered, after all they are the ones who are pushing this vehicle not the E team

Thanks Craig. I'll pass on the Elgin instruments. I do love my Elgin pocket watches though. After 70 or 80 years they are still ticking.

Copied from Facebook, posted yesterday.

Traveling so not putting these in the proper threads, but I was able to ask a few questions yesterday in Nashville. I spoke with Jerome (sp?). I wasnt expecting the long line to sit in the car and was behind schedule, so didn't do that.

Question #2: instrument cluster, really?

Yes really, we will all be getting the watch thing. The one in the current prototype should work though if you want to swap for analog! It and a lot of the parts come from a 1990 Geo Metro

It seems they didn't care about the cries of outrage.

Absolutely agree and I cast my vote against it!!!!!!!

What happened to this dash? Styling matches the aerodynamics of the body style. The boxy styled Elgin dash looks like it should be installed in a pickup truck not the production Elio. IMHO
