So what are you saying here?
That you don't respect EM to the point of not caring about thier permission?
And to the point of laughing at the very possibility that they might take action for not getting permission?

"...entirely amusing! The chuckle alone was worth the effort to date."
So not only are you laughing at the poster's experience and advice, you're basically laughing at EM too?
I was going to say, "Of course." to the offer, but after seeing the true colors of that post, Nope. Keep it.

The idea that one must have permission to have a toy car similar to one which does not exist, is absurd to me. It came from looking at a scale model of an airliner on my desk, given to me by the Captain. It never occurred to me to ask the Captain if he had permission from the manufacturer of the aircraft he flies, before giving me this model. As Inwlf40 said,Gees, lighten up. Life is too short for me to take this seriously. I just thought it would be enjoyable to have a 3 wheel model to look at from time to time. If there is any possibility of legal consequences or even showing lack of respect for this thought, forget it. The climate here is far to hostile for me.

I tried making a Lego version of an Elio. Does that count? It sucked, by the way.

I LIKE 1:18 MODELS .
I SUGGESTED THIS TO ELIO OVER A YEAR AGO SAYING IT WOULD NOT ONLY SELL
BUT DO A LOT TO PROMOTE THE CAR FOR THEM .

GIVE PEOPLE SOMETHING THEY CAN HOLD IN THEIR HANDS WHILE
THEY WAIT FOR THE REAL CAR .

IF A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS
AND A MODEL IS WORTH A THOUSAND PICTURES ,
THEN A MODEL IS WORTH A MILLION WORDS !

THINK OF THE AMOUNT OF TALKING THEY COULD SAVE .

...Gees, lighten up...

...WTH is wrong with some people?...

Exactly.
I couldn't agree more.

Seriously, I think 1:24 would be perfect.
It might benefit the cause more than anyone can imagine.
Though I still wouldn't want one that wasn't endorsed by EM.

Did you get a response on your model request?
Thanks,

NOPE .

THE ONLY ONE THEY RESPONDED TO WAS THE ONE ABOUT THE FOLDING TOW-BAR .
