I have gone to both the Elio Motors web page and the face book page.
I can not find any info. On the live feed of the unvailing on the 19th.
Any one know where this is? How to get it?

The teaser trailer video (which you can see here: http://www.eliomotors.com/p5-are-you-ready/) has the following text at the end:
"Visit ElioMotors.com or Facebook.com/eliomotors for live streaming details."

I will be at work and unable to watch, so I haven't bothered to look.


Edit: Derp... apparently you've already been to both of those, so my post is singularly unhelpful...

Happy Friday, Elio friends and family! Less than a week until the P5 is revealed at the Los Angeles Auto Show and the excitement we feel as a team and the buzz that we have read about online is palpable. Officially, the press conference for the reveal is less than 140 hours away – November 19, 10:00 am in Los Angeles. We can’t wait.
In the video, it talks about that, and says check back. Probably will be something posted as the date gets nearer.

One thing you can deduce from the video, the car is ready enough for showing, and now has dual head light assembly, one as the bullet style. The other might be a driving light I suppose.

Questions to ask
1) Does the P5 come with production sound proofing?
2) Does it have OBD-II capabilities and are the limited by EM? If so how?
3) What is the current state of the turbo? Is it in the works? How far along is it?
4) Now knowing that they will use PPC coloring can they give the color specs for any of the colors? (Thank you TY for this knowledge)
5) What are the plans for yellow? Come on there has to be some, you can't upset that many people.
(Apparently, yes they can. No Yellow per TY :sorry:)
6) When will the options list for the Elio be listed? Possible date? (Could answer a lot of customization questions)
7) What are the standard options that are confirmed?
8) Will the owners' manual be physical or PDF? When might we get a sneak peek online?
9) Numbers heard are 19,000 in 90 days. Is that correct? Is that calendar or working days?
10) Are you seeing more new people or established fans of the Elio at the events you are attending?
11) When will the vehicle for handsome pre-order holder #11492 be ready? (Don't worry these numbers aren't indicative of asking sequence Badboy)
12) If there is no belly pan on the P5, will there be an option for it?
13) Will the nose of the vehicle have sensors or body matched impact resistant materials?
14) In the SEC filing there are multiple dates given for stated timeline (1 month, 6 month, 9 month). Is this time table to start at the SEC acceptance, or what indicates the start point?

Pictures requested
1) Front suspension : how it comes out of the body panel, what the covering looks like
2) Exhaust port : Location (probably get an undershot for clearance if possible too)
3) Interior : With a tape measure for dimensions if possible
4) Dash : specific without Skyz system if possible (no tape measure)
5) Side mirrors : size and are they manual or power
6) Head on picture requested for modeling. I will take various elevations to try and give best picture.

Measurements
1) Height to bottom of license plate both laden and unladen
2) From seat to ceiling in backseat
3) Overall width of front of vehicle (specific to parking between 2 poles, not wheel width)
4) Trunk : Size dimensions, Width of opening
5) Ground clearance : Where is the low point on the vehicle?

General observation
1) Is there a gas cap or not (as Corvette fill spot) (No Gas cap per TY post #92... will check anyway since new model)
2) Are there 2 armrests? Where are they located... part of the seat... part of the door panel... combination of both?
3) Are the turn/ interior/ side marker/ tail(brake) lights incandescent or LED?
4) Is the ignition switch a key, fob, or pushbutton?
5) Is there a trunk release from the inside of the cabin?


I don't have tons of time to scrub the forums to get all other questions scattered through out. I will be trying to update this daily for the next week or so, so if anyone knows any other questions I have missed or would like to add now is the time to post them here fast and furious. I am almost peeing my pants with excitement. Can't wait to see this thing in person. I know Goofyone and Husker1 are both going before me so please take a copy of the list, ask what you will, and post answers here if you would like. The more we divide this up the easier for us all. I would appreciate the lightened load, not that I am worried either way :D

Another Question to ask...

How do they plan to ship the Elio by auto haulers? I've heard that they will use dollies. Is that true? (That's a LOT of dollies.)

Great list.
I suggest to do a PM to Goofyone and Husker1 to discuss this; then you're all on the same page.
I'm following this, so I'll do my best to lighten your load and post any answers the same day. I'm sure G1 has plenty of questions himself and I think we all are awaiting his perspective

That's why I suggested that the 3 of you should coordinate this in a PM.
