Still cant figure how Elio can sell it for 6,800. It is a slingshot with a roof, door air conditioning and extra safety items - airbags.
Retaining structural rigidity keeping the roof is actually easier than in an open-top. No wonder convertible cars are usually more expensive than their hardtop counterparts.
