So after getting asked about 1,000 times this week what I think of the Slingshot I thought I'd write up a more formal review. Been sharing it with people locally so they can read up on it if they want. I'm about 310 miles in at this point! Just thought I'd share here - http://mitchelsellers.com/personal-...cleid/1454/2015-polaris-slingshot-review.aspx

I saw that article....and in the end it isn't for everyone. But damnnit I like it! (And I can't wait to drive it when I don't need 2 jackets, gloves and a helmet to prevent becoming a popsicle!)

Not to mention once people ask how much it is and I tell them, they are interested in buying. I think I may have helped my local dealer sell a few more in the last few days!

It just takes a different breed to live in those conditions . And then to drive around in a hopped up gocart in the blazing cold . Plain nuts, no salt .

That made me laugh so hard.....

And yes, hopped up gocart! Very apt description!

Great write up MitchS! I'm 1,257 miles in and ABSOLUTELY LOVE MY SS! There's always room for improvements like any first year release toy. Breaks can be better and Polaris should consider a SLIPPER CLUTCH into their 2016 models.
Well my only way of sending you warm wishes are my vids, here's one today after taking a couple of ski runs at our local mountain then heading back to San Diego;

You Tube muted the music that was playing on my drive for infringement rights.

@1poser - The slipper clutch idea is awesome. And I'm always for good brakes. My other fun toy is a Mustang GT with the performance pack, switching between the two is a bit funny the first time I hit the brakes.

Awesome videos! I think I might have to road trip it somewhere to get to some fun roads!
