    Thumbs up Can-Am Spyder Turbo Concept- NASCAR Inspired

    Click on the picture below and let us know what you think. If they built a street legal turbo F3 with full factory warranty at $4 to 5K extra would you buy it? I know I would be all over it especially with (Drift) mode

    I'd sure as hell buy one if they'd offer it with a turbo from the factory with warranty, and the Sport mode. To that end, I like how you posed the question in that manner.

    I didn't know if you were going to get it up right at 4 EST/3 CST so I had to make sure it was up as well. Better to duplicate our efforts than not get it posted!

    Its a step in the right direction for sure. How much boost is it putting out?

    Default Turbo

    How about a turbo option for the RT?
    turbo systems or supercharger systems regularly sell for 4-5k, so the price is on a par. Brilliant idea!

    Cool idea. I would not personally buy one for 4-5k extra but i already have a sport bike for speed. I also wonder how that would affect the handling and the Nanny. I think it would be really cool if they had a spyder as a pace car during the "Can AM Duals" tonight

    Not for me. As far as the Jeff Earnhardt endorsement thing goes I met him at Lime Rock Park a few years ago. I was not impressed. I could say more but I'll keep my mouth shut.

    I wouldn't for the turbo but they do need to add the option jump & go they provide for the law enforcement bikes

    Well, well, well... nothing like a new Spyder announcement to get me to return to Spyderlovers in the winter.

    A few thoughts:

    -- LOVE the color scheme!
    -- It looks like the concept loses the frunk, if that's the case that's a surprisingly big (inefficient?) turbo setup.
    -- My favorite part: Akrapovic appears to have taken their design cues from MV Agusta... If you're gonna benchmark a design cue, the sexiest Italian bike on Earth ain't a bad cue to shamelessly steal.

    Odd endorsement, just going for the name i guess. I dont think he has ever had a top 10 even in the xfinity series, maybe not even the trucks either.

    Nice, but if I should ever hit the lottery, I would rather have someone shoehorn me a 1700cc, 200hp vmax into the thing. I wonder if they had to reinforce the engine internals for the turbo, and if so, how much more boost can it handle?

    Not sure for an extra 4-5 K.. But you will need to save for tire replacement if you keep smoking the tire's

    interesting idea. Don't care for the front. it looks like a riding lawnmower. Why can't they put the turbo model on the f3 they have now with the same body just add different color scheme.
