Seven meets Polaris Slingshot


Recommended Posts

I notice that the Slingshots all end up customized or painted special. The new Pantera? Before they were actually sold, I was a bit excited at the idea - $20k for brand new! Once I saw one, I was very disappointed that it does not have anything my Birkin misses, one less wheel, etc.and weighs 500 pounds more. Just too heavy. Frame looks like NASCAR roll cage and the Fiberglass is really thick. Great concept (take that, regulators).

Ugly but affordable. They have sold around 30K of these in 3-4 years. Gives you a hint at the potential for se7en clones, if only they were more affordable and the price was for a turnkey vehicle, not boxes of components.

 

The Slingshot pictured here is the "Grand Touring" version with a top & doors and an extra dose of fugly:). Still, the driving experience has to be v close to that of a se7en. When tested by one of the car mags, they said it put most sports cars to shame.
