I sat in one also. To hard to get in and out of for me. Cool machine though. If it works for you that's all that matters

It was fun to test drive, but I don't see it as anywhere near as comfortable as the rt.

Still fun to blast around in though.

Who are we to tell you what to do..?? But we will:roflblack::roflblack:. Opinion I rather get a miata now if they made the slingshot a four wheeler it would make a great sports car....:thumbup:

You're already family in here; make sure to post some pics of whatever comes next!

Before I took that leap, I'd take an extended test ride and really ask yourself if you want to go back in the direction of a car, which is really what this is (something nobody would question if it happened to have two wheels in the back instead of one).

They rent them in Vegas, at least.

When my friend (who also rides on two wheels) first got his, he loved it more than his bikes, but in time, while he still loves it, he prefers his motorcycles to his Slingshot - some of the novelty always wears off.

In the end, it's just a different choice, and it's all about what excites you.
