I am so sick and tired of people saying "well you get what you pay for" when it comes to the slingshot comparing it to 50-100k cars of one variety of another and I have no idea why.
I am a car enthusiast. I have driven a lot of new cars and many of them are under 20k, the price of a slingshot. I have never ever ever seen a car with the fit finish issues that the SS has. Can we all agree that the SS has inferior fit finish to ANY car in production in the U.S.? I don't care how you justify it is simply fact unless some one would like to lay out a make model of which they believe to be of worse quality? (I wont hold my breath)
The slingshot however is a motorcycle and I will be first in line to say I am not a well informed motorcycle guy. I have been around plenty of bikes but don't know them like I know cars so here is the challenge. What bike has worse fit finish issues then a slingshot and how much does it cost? (seriously, I want to know)
The slingshot is an awesome, fun, niche vehicle and I want to own one come next spring but I feel like their are way to many false impressions of what kind of quality you are getting for your money. People should be less backing polaris and the slingshot because it is their perception of a cheap thrill and pushing polaris to produce a product that keeps up with the quality expected of a road legal vehicle.
