Standard Equipment And Options

[ehwatt]

There appears to be quite a bit of interest in a CIWS option. Should they make CIWS a standard feature, they'll need to cut something from the list to stay in budget. And while there are plenty of offensive carpets, there are few offensive carpet weapons.

Carpet bombs are frowned upon these days, so an alternative would be in order.

A CIWS might be helpful in keeping the gawkers in the next lane from sliding over into you . . .

Nothing says "deterrent" like Artoo and his six little 20mm gun barrels staring back at you.

Ok, we've had our fun with this; but let's move on before it gets carried away.
No telling where it could go on this path; but if it stays on it; it won't be good; and you know the rest from there...

So let's go back to REAL WORLD standards and options for the Elio, shall we?

Do you recall where you got that notion and when? I have only been following for two years and in that time it has been discussed as "wouldn't it be neat if..." but never said to be actually offered. Was it in person at one of the shows and not in print?

At the Arizona meet. One of the reps mentioned it.

That is unfortunate then, looks like he owes you some beer and an apology. It would be nice if a sunroof did end up being an option, but I would not expect it to be.

I'm holding out for the convertible.

A Convertible Elio? I wouldn't hold my breath for that, but I'm sure a custom shop could do that for ya!

Just did an Elio survey via surveymonkey and a Sunroof was an option. $450.00 I think?

Wait, really? I wonder if this is like the automatic transmission surveys that went out a while back. Cool! We might just see sunroof/glass roof as an option on the Configurator soon!

Here's what my survey looked like..
