My first post here... I just went all-in for $1,000. Haven't gotten any email from them so far, even though I signed up on their email list a few weeks ago. I know I have to wait for my number in line, but shouldn't I be getting blog posts or whatever?
McBrew, Welcome! Tell us your story about why you decided to join the Elio family, what about the Elio that appeals to you, what will your Elio look like, and options you want?

Well... I learned to drive on old diesel Mercedes. I drove them into my late 20s. My first new car was a VW Golf TDI. I ran that on biodiesel for most of its 150,000 miles with me. My next car was a subcompact Scion xD, which worked until my family stared to grow. I traded that in on a Subaru Outback. I like the Outback, because my family fits in it and it can tow our popup camper.

Late last year, my wife's car was totaled (everyone is okay), and we have been borrowing her mom's car until we decide what to do.

I remembered reading about the Elio a couple years ago and liking he idea. I figured it had gone the way of most prototypes, but I was excited to see that the project is still moving forward.

I think it would be the ideal second car for us, since I work 3 miles from home, and my wife stays home with the kids. She can use the Outback most of he time while I commute in the Elio.

It's the perfect combination of cost, utility, and efficiency... And it looks super-cool, too!

Being a year and a half it more out, I'm sure we'll need something in the mean time. We may end up buying my mother-in-law's Fit.

I want the Orange one, but I'll take a look at a green one before I make my final decision.

As far as options, I'm not too particular. I'd like a radio with Bluetooth connectivity, and the iPad integration looks cool, as long as it isn't too expensive.

Spot in Line Day!
March 13, 2015

[Broken External Image]

Happy Friday Elio’ers! Hope you are enjoying the extra hour of sunshine this week – except you Arizona you all get enough already. We can see winter moving behind us in the rear view mirror.

Tonight, as soon as we finish the blog, we will be sending out the latest batch of Spot In Line (SIL) emails to some very eager $1000 All In reservation holders! The SIL is always a hot topic on social media and through Elio email support so we felt it was a good time to review it as a reminder to our fans and as an introduction for the thousands of people that find Elio every week.

A SIL is an email sent only to the $1000 All In reservation holders and assigns them a number so they know exactly where they are in the reservation queue. This number is an extra benefit and is in addition to the Limited Edition t-shirt, bumper sticker and 50% reservation bonus that every All In reservation holder receives with their reservation. So, for example, if your SIL is #14,000, you will be the 14,000th person to have an opportunity to purchase an Elio! Another great benefit of getting your SIL is the knowledge that you will not lose your spot to a new reservation holder, your spot is your spot and all new folks get in line behind you!

Here are a few helpful notes about the SIL to kick off your weekend:

  • The time you make your reservation (or upgrade to $1000 All In) is your official SIL time/date. The second you get to $1000 All In you are locked in for your spot.
  • Each SIL mailing is only for the most recent people to achieve $1000 All In status. This mailing covers from January 12, 2015 through March 12th, 2015. If you made your $1k All In reservation or upgrade during this period, you will get an email tonight!
  • When this email goes out tonight every single $1000 All In reservation holder will have received their SIL email. If you do not have your number or cannot recall what it is exactly, send us an note and we can get it for you. The best email is tellmemore@eliomotors.com (or your special reservation holder email!)
  • If you don’t see your email tonight (for reservations from 1/12/15 through 3/12/15) please check your junk/spam folder, it sometimes gets caught in there.
  • If you know your number already, you will not get an email every time we email a new batch out.
Have fun with your new SIL number and remember to share it when you are chatting with other Elio fans. If you are All In at a lower reservation amount and want to get a better spot, click here to go to the website and upgrade your reservation today!

The Elio Preview Tour:

April 3-12, New York City for the New York Auto Show, Jacob Javitz Center; show hours; this is a P4 show

Thanks for your continued support!
