This is my everyday driver in Victoria BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada. I put 220000 miles (yes the zeros are correct) on motorcycles by the time I was 43 years old. This is a practical vehicle in this climate and the S550 sits in the garage more often than not. I commute with this beast every day, except when it’s raining. I take it on longer excursions (2000 miles or more) during the Summer. Love it. Compared to motorcycle travel it is luxurious for an ole timer.😀

I rented one to have a fun day on PCH on a Saturday when everyone around is riding or driving something impressing, with my son. We easily mixed in and he mentioned how much fun he had several times. I should admit that my ears were hurting towards the end of the day though 😉

I'd LOVE to check out one of those vehicles. Through the years I've owned a 1964 MGB roadster with knock off wire wheels. I had FUN with that car. I later got a 1974 fiat Xl/9 (first model year). It had a 1300cc single overhead cam 4 banger, 4 speed manual transmission (4 gear was a slight overdrive), 4 wheel disc brakes, targa top and ridiculously skinny tires (145-SR-13s, can't buy them that skinny anymore). I later put 205 VR-60-13s which made it drive like a OVERSIZED GO-KART, It would STEAL YOUR BREATH AWAY. It was extremely FUN to drive. A lot like the POLARIS SLINGSHOT.😉👍😁😂

How’s the heat. I drive a convertible top down in the winter and love it, at least 30° and up anyway

When I see these on the road, either some rich old guy or someone using it as a commuter in our carpool lanes here in the Phoenix Az area

I am thinking of getting one but it honestly scares me lol safety issues, other drivers tend to drive reckless. I don't see how this will ensure my safety even in a minor accident.

"can it be a daily driver" I daily my motorcycle so this thing is at least a step above that.

[gilbertos]

I coudlnt use it as a daily driver in my city. People would mess it up just for fun. My car has been scratched and keyed so many times for no reason

We have a Slingshot and we love it. This one, however, looks like someone pulled the 'skin' off leaving only the bone (where it is white). Kinda creepy looking. Would be great for Halloween. Regardless, the Slingshot is a hell of a lot of fun. Don't let this paint job scare you away.

Milk crates are the best place to start for controls on the actual fabrication work 😊😊😊

Okay I have a question what about buying a dune buggy street legal? I mean I understand the fun factor for a slingshot but some states you need to get a motorcycle license. Plus with the dune buggy I can go off-roading . You can't do that on a slingshot. And the other thing cost. A new slingshot runs about 21 k . A dune buggy you could probably get built for under 7k.

The should've used a FORD 2.0L or 2.3L ECOBOOST engines, 250-275hp hell yes.

Concept

What if Polaris slingshot was from the 80s & 90s?

[vwchan]

Geez, for that much one mind as well go pick up a used convertible car which would be safer and more practical.

[jonchase]

I think I’d buy a side by side instead of a slingshot if I were to be looking for an enclosed cab

Slingshot car vs tamiya owner type jeep from Philippines

[jud-asinsmith-stansell]

Polaris has a terrible reputation on fit and finish. They SxS is renowned to be among the worse. At min 4, when he closes the glove box and all that plastic above shakes, yea, nice...

You absolutely could not daily this in the midwest/northeastern states. Enjoy getting pummeled in the face and inside your interior in the wintertime by salt and snow when you end up stuck behind a semi truck or big SUV.

[prestiplex]

To be honest, I just test drive the slingshot and its quite boring to drive. I took the strongest one and event with that, its still lacking power wise. The control is clunky at best and everything just feel cheap. The look is the only thing that this thing has going for it. Its also really huge, like a real car😂

36 month payment plans idk 🤷🏽‍♂️ like if I was still 25 I’d be rollin around in this hoe 😅
