I have owned a Slingshot since 2015. I have a cruiser motorcycle and Nissan 350z. I use my Slingshot more than any other vehicle I own. Haters will always have something to say. Driving the Slingshot is a experience you can't get with car or bike. The review that was done is honest and accurate.

I normally drive an MX5 Miata, the slingshot I drove seemed more tail happy. Didn't drive the Slingshot long, but the experience was similar. If it were easier to straddle road kill, I might have one, They're awesome!

I'm tired of people comparing the Slingshot to a Mazda. Its a auto cycle. It has as much or more storage space than a average motorcycle. If you want more space buy saddle bags for it. Polaris made this machine for someone to have fun and believe me, it's Fun.

I have had mine since 2015. Was one of the first in my area to own one. The one thing I hated was being anywhere with a lot of people the slingshot attracts way too much attention at first it was cool to feel like a rock star but then it got really annoying. Because their weren't a lot on the road in begining I was bombarded. Questions which were asked from people. 1) did I built it ? 2) how much does it cost? 3) does it fly? And my favorite where do you buy one lol......

Had a Honda S2000 -- now a Civic SI -- wonder how the handling compares with the S2000. Suspect the S2000 is much better. I no longer have a mc license, so I would have to go through an accredited State course somewhere which may not be a bad idea. Seems strange if I do not need a special license to drive a 6 speed 150mph S2000, but do need the M endorsement to drive a Polaris. In any event, this seems to be a good alternative to a bike given I am 78 and probably too old to ride a bike.
