Until we have a firm price and delivery we do not want take money for orders.  We estimate that the earliest production 3 wheel Spiras will be produced in mid 2012 and cost about 100,000 Baht ($3,000 USD) in Thailand.  Taxes, insurance, and legal will probably raise the price to $5,000 in the USA and Europe.  The first 500 vehicles are reserved for rental testing fleets and charity auctions.
 
Besides helping the environment your reservations will help us have more leverage and credibility with suppliers and future dealers.  It will also help us to know where the strongest demand is to organize global deliveries and production. 
We will also email a survey in the future to see what options customers will prefer.
