[DistantlyBR] It looks like the Batmobile, but...

Where's the 4th wheel?

Okay, it's going to take me a while to save enough pennies to buy one of these, but I think it's probably inevitable. I've wanted a Batmobile since the first time I saw one on a little b&w TV screen in the 60s.

That's one interesting vehicle. As much as I dislike the Can-Am Spyder I don't know what to think of this.

The black and grey one looks more like the Batmobile (and that model costs less to boot!). At $20,000 this is something I will simply have to go out and drive at least once. (the Morgan 3 is the one that really calls to me but it will take along time to save up $50,000 in quarters

)

Agreed!

Despite the fact that this is something you'll probably not want to brag about on here (and especially not on that other site), we are in 99.9999999% agreement on this and the other .0000001% was just a typo I corrected for you when I quoted you above.

Geez, looks like an explosion in a razor blade factory.

I would request that anyone who finds this thing attractive complete the following form and PM me a copy:

"I, <Insert name here>, in the presence of God and those here assembled, do hereby declare my utmost appreciation for the visual appeal of the Polaris Slingshot on sole condition that I will never, ever, have the bald-faced brass bananas to say a damned thing about a Honda Helix's appearance".
