A Polaris Slingshot Truthful Review 1 Week of Ownership 

I purchased one just based on " it helped my posture "🙏 now I never slouch. Made mama proud 👏🏻

We took ours on a two week long 5k road trip.... However we added the taller windscreen and the Slingshade roof. The only issue we had was even with the added rollbar mounted storage racks we were a bit limited on how much stuff we could bring along. Over all with a few after market options it's a great compromise between a car and a motorcycle.

Driving with a camera in your right hand. Shifting with your left hand. Genious.

Ok I’m half way threw this video and man I love it great video has told me more then any other slingshot video great job

They do make several taller different windshields, you should try/buy one !!!

Looks cool from the front, looks like they forgot to finish it from the back.

It has a trunk behind the both seats

I just applied for my dealer license can't wait to get approved. I just posted a video of my carlot, garage and office Love the channel

Great vid great review!

Glad it sold quickly for you.

There is storage behind the seats for helmet etc....

Redline Sky or Pontiac Solstice came with 2.0 turbo. The earlier Saturn Ion redline came with the supercharged motors.

We were interested in a Spyder and a Slingshot after looking at a new Harley Tri Glide. We rented a Slingshot in Gatlinburg for a few hours, conclusion was "3 wheeled Miata". It was fun, but more like a Miata than a motorcycle. The new Slingshot has a powerful Polaris motor now instead of the GM...

Thank you for sharing

I rented one of these I really want one now

Dude you literally have giant storage spaces behind both seats

The Polaris Slingshot has very little storage space, with a combined total of about 3.5 cubic feet split between a glovebox and two bins behind the seats. The storage compartments behind each seat are relatively large and can be locked. There is also a spacious glove compartment on the passenger side

I've got a Can Am Spyder manual shift & it's a similar experience but for me more like riding an atv on the street legally. Handles amazingly & tons of power plus It's far more stable so I'm confident I'll make it home without wiping out to take care of my wife & kids

Thank you I have been wondering about this for a couple of years and didn't want to get close enough to a salesman to find out. Surmised most of it correctly but the windshield would be a bitch as I'm 6'4', really have to like the rwd though. Also was your coffee cold before you could drink or are you one of "those people" (my favourite new politicly incorrect statement) that drinks soda for breakfast ?

"When I bought it, I didn't know which model I bought" - this guy is clueless....

Yep, there is plenty of storage behind the seats.

I own one for 3 years. I agree about the windshield. I guess you can get a different windshield. I drove mine last November from the Midwest to Florida. I looked into having it transported they wanted $3,000. I could drive it for that. I wintered there I tried to rent one it was 100 mile drive to rent one $200. A day. I had a rule not driving it at night. Deer rut in November. The day before I left it was 70. A cold front moved in. High 45 degrees. I was wearing many clothes. I checked in SE Iowa the next morning it was Snowing. Not hard but I waited for it to warm up and quit. I was nervous about the road being slick but I remembered that the road temperature was warm. It snowed to St. Louis people did stare at me. As I headed south it did warm up On interstate when I drove next to semis I was looking right at the axle of truck. Knowing that semis have huge blind spots . I one didn’t get too close behind them. Passing them wait till there is nothing else passing them. Pull over and drive like a nascar driver around it. Don’t hang next the cab. I met some incredible people. I was like a rock star, “ you are doing this ALONE? “ “ what kind of engine does this have” usually men ask this” I was educated before title 9 it has a gas engine. “ you put the gas back here. How fast does it go? I don’t know. I’m driving the speed limit. I stopped at a rest area to wait out a rain storm near Tallahassee as I was leaving a man looked at my plates you drove that here? Yes I told him I was retired, was just enjoying the sights. He was retiring soon always dream about a motorcycle cross country tour. He cried realizing that he could really do this. Took my picture. Getting out is difficult for an obese senior citizen. Storage behind seat. I have a towel for seat.

I love mine!

THERE ARE NO WORDS TO EXPRESS MY SINCERE APPRECIATION MEMORABLE UNFORGETTABLE A GAME CHANGER. People will forget what you did. People will forget what you said. But people will never forget how you made them feel, but I must say your video made me feel good. I got so excited I drove four (4) hours to buy a 2021 Polaris Slingshot S with Technology package one, Wind deflector and Auto drive Security system black and white in color, thanks so much for sharing and making my day, I’m the happiest man in the town, I made my dream a reality, I stopped dreaming and started driving, I’m really enjoying the hot summer days now, I love my new toy, Simply the best Second 2 None A Game Changer A Show Stopper.

I love mine

This guy is a champ goes from a non regulation helmet to no helmet. Goat

Did you find the storage behind the seats for your helmet and/or briefcase?

did you sell the Ferrari ? also haven't you been a car guy for decades ? What is "base horsepower"

I wonder if a taller wind screen is available in the aftermarket?

I wonder what year model that was. I think most of the new ones have push start engines with heated/cooling seats and an electronic display for GPS and phone connection There's storage in the new ones on the sides and behind both seats I think. Not sure if that is included in the basic one

My husband a can am spyder her rode it one day got off it caught FIRE!

You need to stick to your Viper even though the Slingshot has a better power to weight ratio and will outhandle it on a road course. Seats too hot, seats too cold, windshield too low, and on and on. A week is not true ownership. I've driven my over 30000 miles and I still love it. As far as exposure to the element, would you park your Viper outside or in the sun? I park my truck inside to protect it...Slingshot is no different. Apparently you have more money than sense and don't take care of your rides.

So what happened to the next video going into burouts etc.?

Good review. And for the seat simply buy a slipcover.

By are you shifting with your left hand?

Doesn't it have storage space behind the seats? If you fold the seats down there should be a storage box behind each seat.

You really didn't do a once over before you drove off!! Trunk space is behind the seat!! lol

It is classified as a AUTO CYCLE..NOT MOTORCYCLE..NO INDOORSMENT. NO HELMET IN FLORIDA I have a 2019 GRAND TOURING GT, absolutely love it .I roll 70,80 on i95 every day.

The cobalt. It's a cobalt motor. Other ones were tuned better with quicker transmissions

Good video on how frustrating and not luxury these are. Seems like a 90s honda motor swap experience.

it depends where are you using it. if on the beach🏖 or country side🏔 i think it is super cool💥. However, inside the city🏢 i don't think so.

Hi Craig- Your channel is AWESOME! I'm just getting into the used car sales business. I'm buying cars from Manheim Chicago and Milwaukee. So far I'm doing mostly Nissans, trying to get Toyotas and Hondas What cars to you recommend for under 5k to sell fairly easily? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Nice toy - good fun. For touring it’s a joke despite the comments here. What storage? It’s not thing I’m driving cross country. Dealer support / network. I’d like to thrash it for fun for a day but my money gives me a better return on my 2 & 3 wheeled Harley’s.

Might want to put a towel over the seat when not in use out doors.

How well would a larger person fit in this?

I see they also require 91 octane or higher fuel, so you have to rum premium gas all the time at a much higher price than regular. In California now that would be over $5 a gallon right now

OMG Y CAN'T THE VIDEO ALREADY BE OUT 😩

What happened to the boat?

Boxers are the best dogs, I enjoyed watching the video to see him

I have it rented for next week. 3 days

There is compartment behind the seats

What year is it?

What’s up with the boat you bought?

Compare to FUV: 1. Electric vs gas 2. Roll cage vs none 3. Tandem vs abrest passenger 4. Upright vs reclined driving position 5. Partial weather protection vs none I prefer Arcimoto on every dimension .

Good job roasting the tire and beating the crap out of it before selling to some poor unsuspecting victim.

Did you really not find the lockable storage behind each seat?? Lol 😂

It's not a motorcycle or a car. It's a high performance go-kart that costs a fortune ($26000 and up)! It looks like a lot of fun but be careful. 1700 pounds matched with that 2.4 engine could be very dangerous if you hit something.

Bad: Customer service is absolutely the worst, and in my area, 3 Certified Mechanic/Dealers didn't know crap.

Forget about break in procedures or restrictions

That is exactly where that windshield is supposed to hit

C'mon.......what's up with das boot?

Through a towel on the seat when you park it. If your scared don't drive on the highway. Obviously you have never had a motorcycle. Your complaints are just silly. What did you expect? Not a super car in any way shape or form. Glad you sold it.

Massachusetts we have a helmet law so you have to wear one . I don't think that would be fun.

Hilarious watching that thing do a burnout

Providence was beautiful in this video. Dont disrespect my city

Who let this guy leave the dealer without showing him everything????? Like…..the storage behind the seats are soooo important to me!!! Lol

It seems like a fun little weekend toy to drive around in sunny weather. Practical or not, I'm sure the owner will get plenty of oohs and ahhs from others, to help build up one's self-esteem. This is usually the reason people purchase old 'classic' cars. I know a few people who take their old cars to weekend car shows. They'll sit in a chair next to their cars for hours on end, hoping others will stop and pay them compliments, lol.

So buy a used Mazda Miata. Got it thx

So where the heck is the last installment of the boat saga????

If they kept the same look but four wheels I'd buy. 3 kills it in a bad way I feel

I'd wear a full face in that thing if a car kicks up a bolt or a rock that bug deflected might not catch it

No helmet,too hot , and hope you bought it. Right.

Im sure one of these would make a good ride for someone, they're not really my taste though

With all dew respect you complain more and scare easier than my wife.

That's not anything like a supercar. Enjoy your videos.

How weird your the guy who sold me a 1999 caddy sts that had a blown head gasket ,an thing was i asked you if the car had issues an you sad no ,glad i did not buy this from you at a marked up price the 2022 version is nicer anyway, buyer watch it,these things are well worth a look at though

This guy should never own a slingshot. He seems to whine a bit to much. It is what it is, embrace it.

You might want to stick to cars, bikers are used to this kinda stuff.

Uhh not supercharged bud lol

didn't know what model you bought? uhh wtf...who doesn't know that...

Expensive ass go-kart.

The engine ruins it for me. I'd be interested if it had a Hyabusa engine.

I have one but I don't like it.

Thanks, I no longer want one. Looks dangerous now.

What a odd missed opportunity. WHY would they make it rear wheel drive !? Idiotic !!!

It is a junk. You just proved my instinct. Thanks you. I will get a MX-5 or Harley before this crap. Missing the protection of a car, and lack of the excitement and nimble of a bike.

Obviously you have never driven a British sports car.

🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

The Polaris slingshot should go the way of the Victory .just buy a YUGO CAR if your going to WASTE your money .

Not cool

These is nothing cool About that! When is the next not video dropping?

Dangerous.

Not cool.

NOPE

This guy complains too much. Just enjoy the ride. Take that helmet off and throw it away.

Not cool. Just a snowmobile with wheels.

Slingshots are for boomer's. Lol

😂😂 those things are trash its just like lowering your windows on your junk ass cobalt and blasting music

The most embarrassing thing on three wheels.

The only problem is where I live only a certain demographic drives this vehicle.
