There are at least a couple of Slingshots in this area. A coworker has a red one.

(Owner got in and drove off as I was composing this. Makes a very meh noise.)

only fitting that it sounds like shit, since it looks like shit too.

I see a red one frequently with a Jabroni behind the wheel. Those things are poser city.

+1 internets for use of “jabroni”.

I’ve seen more and more of these running around town lately. Maybe not the worst thing in the world, if you want to have the wind-in-hair experience of a motorcycle, but don’t want to ride exposed to every 2-ton car driven by an idiot. I’m not sure if you’d have to have a motorcycle license to drive one, though?

License and helmet requirements vary by state:

I saw two yesterday. One with speakers mounted everywhere in custom panels facing out towards traffic. It was also custom painted. The other seemed more stock except it had an exhaust that could only be described as “startling” since I jumped as he passed me on the right.

They seem really goofy to me.

I’m pretty sure this is actually a legitimate product where a Miata is in all ways better and more practical.

For sure.
