Keep in mind, we may get nothing. The last financials I heard was that they had 47million, but need 200 million to reach production. We may just end up with a $100 shirt/bumper sticker. I really hope they succeed though for many more reasons beyond my selfish desires.

In Savannah Ga showing yesterday the number that was quoted was $500 million to flip the switch. The staff there seemed to be very vague with their answers to my questions. Weren't even aware of information provided on the Elio Motors website. Sat in the Elio and was very impressed with it overall. I'm all in at $1000 as of Feb 21st - non-refundable, got the t-shirt and bumper sticker. Wondering when I'll get my reservation number now. Like you, my hopes are high for the success of Elio but some of the information does look like smoke and mirrors.

I think the 200-500 million they need is to fund the company after they get started- not to get started. They will have revenue coming in from sales by then. I think the "delay" now is just getting the engine/trans and the next model with that engine ready to produce...The P5 and ok maybe a P6... but we are close to the final version.

I went ALL INN for $1000.00 today and starting to feel like it could have been a mistake..It took 4 times to get it to go through, all I received is a note saying that money was received, nothing mentioned the 500 bonus for going all in.. Also.. Just before filling out reservation I read something about all option prices will be shown once reserving.. That has not happenened.. Interested in knowing others concerns..

Not heard about the option pricing. They are not set on what all the options are yet, so I don't think they are ready to publishe prices. the $500 bonus I don't think was mentioned in my confirmation either. I am not worried about it. It's well published.

I can't do it, but it might create a little positive buzz...especially when it upticks
Could even be a done with the segments all together by one of you PowerPoint, office, Windows wizards?

I love following the map forwarded from Elio FB but it is frustratingly slow getting new balloons added. I'd like to see it with 2 colors or even 3 colors balloons. One color for those who reserved refundable, one for people like me with an option to change colors as we upgrade, and one for 1K all in people. Right now there are only 282 people on the map or at least that was true at 5 PDT this morning. LOL I forgot to check before I got on here this time. :-) Z

Someone on the elioclub site has done just this: http://www.elioclub.org/forums/search.php?keywords=Graph&sid=ff58d77230f8d836d47d2ff608f135d3

I have a similar graph I created in Google Docs with those data points plus a few others I found. I also have my graph extrapolate to expected production time. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CR1Evolm5AiOXSSQjhsxKP_VWPUIcabg4PDifLEMgT0/edit?usp=sharing
