Deposit on a new car made

[Elf]

Elio Motors: Ultra High Mileage Vehicle It's called an Elio and I made a $100 deposit along with 15,000 other people .May never get the car as they haven't started to manufacturer anything yet .

$6800 and 84 mpg works for me .

In Maine it can be registered either as a car or motorcycle but a motor cycle licence is not required .In other words they don't have a clue .As far as the crash test ,I'll let ya know how it goes

I wonder why they don't have a window in the back for rear view visibility? Interesting concept though. I doubt it will take long before someone stuffs a Busa motor into it.

No rear window because the seat headrest would block it anyway .The two rear view side mirrors do cover all but a few inches .

I did join the Elio forum and they are VERY serious about a car that has not been or may never be produced .Certainly lack Canadian manners .

I keep thinking Tucker
