This thread started June last year. Now we are looking at March or April for the prototype.... then production will begin and it will be another few months (hoping the production of the prototype is a success).

I proceeded with caution 7 months ago and got blasted for it. Now people are agitated and asking for a further discount since they paid the deposit months ago. I hate to be a debbie downer....

I am sure everyone will be happy in the end. It is just going to take time and patience. Part of the reason why people made the deposit was so they could develop this rear. That is just part of the deal. You should have known your money will be tied up the day you spent it. You should also be prepared to lose that money---- God Forbid!
