Hmmm. I invested in this because it was a cool concept, and I felt it had a decent chance of succeeding. I am also fully aware that it may all go belly-up and fail, in which case I will lose my $1000. I have no pre-conceived notion of when I'll get my Elio (if ever). However, I honestly still expect that at some time in the future, it will happen. As the owner of a small business, I am completely sympathetic with EM for the hoops they have to jump through with regulators, etc. I know that any decision I make takes at least twice as long to accomplish as I had expected, often longer. Therefore, I am at peace.

you will find a lot of pissed off people here when you talk bad about the beloved Elio motors, I am like you have spent the $1000 because I thought it was a possibility, now it gets pushed back all the time and you get a few xxxxxxxx press releases that can be cooked up anywhere and if I could get my money back or even sell the stake in it I would. I read the fine print when I signed up and was ok with it but that was based upon a supposed start production date of 2015. I don't believe for a minute I will ever see it, I do hope it will happen, but doubt it.

Paul is actually working his ass off harder than many CEOs... I don't think he'll be happy till Elios start running off the assembly line!

I'm sorry...
Mods, can we ban the word "troll"?
Or maybe come up with a grown-up code-word for it?
Huh?

Sheesh.

Just a note.......
Looked up "troll" and Wikipedia actually had this very nice description.........
------> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll <-------
I especially liked their "Please do not feed the trolls." sign.

I'm sick of people wanting to ban words that they don't like.
