Hi and welcome to this site, Linda.

You can reserve an Elio on their home site: http://www.eliomotors.com/

Neal, Thanks. This is why the forum is so fantastic. Someone is always willing to answer the questions of other forum members.

Hi there goofyone, kindly provide me with website. I'd really like to reserve a tyke.

Linda, Welcome to the forum. I see Neal has already provided you with the link. People like him are what makes the forum so great and there are many more friendly helpful people like him. Hope you were able to get your reservation submitted and join the family of Elio fans and future owners. Enjoy the experience with us.

I usually put these up right after JNR but couldn't find the thread today. Well, here they are, for what it's worth...
Little trivia - the number of reservations has been pretty steady except for two weeks there where there was a spike in the reservations-per-day. But, the overall average is now at 85.47 per day.

at 19101, to reach 40,000 reservations, they'll need 20,899 more reservations which would take 244 days. At the current rate, of course, it'll take through February 2015. Once there are a few P5s on the road, I'll bet the interest will increase and they'll hit that number this year.

Stop with the reservations, demand action, give us a finished P5...a sellable P5...stop the madness..!
Finish a damn car...all he is doing is sending your money to his other business. The design business.

No reason to stop the reservations since they aren't ready to produce yet...

Good evening Ty! Any thoughts as to when, give or take, that we might expect to see a P5?? I realize it would be anyone's guess, but you seem to be following all of this rather closely.

It would really be just a guess but, given that they need to make a big impact, I can almost see them introducing three of the P5's at the same time - Red, White, and Blue... On July 4th somewhere... All American Car in All American Colors!

So, to put it out there - I see no trend in the reservation data that makes for a good introduction point... They've made Green, Silver, Orange... All that's left is Black, Red, White, and Blue. Since they really need to show progress and they need to ramp up interest to drive initial sales, it kind of makes sense to see a trio of them next month.

July 4th, Three P5's, Red, White, and Blue... mark it down!

Now that would be spectacular! Where is this country's biggest July 4th fireworks display?

A few questions:
Are they waiting for the IAV engine, they have the block now, but 3-4 complete running engines?
They usually take 6 months between prototypes. (125,000 each) can they build 3 in 6 months.?
Will the P5 be a complete elio? I mean have a muffler, working parts like a real car.?
Will the elgin dash be in and operate?
Will everyone like the changes in the rear body, and trunk area.?
Will the new skinny tires be on the P5 or the P6 or P7.
Rogwild said they would make 18 prototypes, I think by fall..is that possible.?
If everyone says it would be almost impossible to fund EM by reservations, why are we sending them in anymore?
If we all give those flyers to all our friends and family, and the real elio doesn't come close to those numbers, who can we blame for giving us false information?
Do you think the AMT will be more or less than $850.?
I have several more, but since you seem to have followed this closely, if you can answer these 10 in order, some of us welcome your opinion...but be honest, ok?

That may be a rhetorical question but my guess is Washington, DC. Right now the Elio is scheduled to be in Tacoma, WA for that weekend. I would love to think we will have P5s by then because it is due in Portland the next weekend. I would love to send all of you pictures of me and my P5 in Portland. LOL :-) Z
