I can guarantee two things:

I would’ve bought one as a second car back when gas was pushing $5/gallon. 90% of the miles I put on my truck are the 40 miles round trip to work and back, by myself, and usually not hauling anything.

Yeeaaaahhhh, I dunno... Fun fact about valve springs: When they fail, they do it without warning... and they usually take out the whole motor when they go.

No, you’re thinking of the factory spec bricks of weed that some Fords come with.

A 2009 Malibu is heavier than a 1959 Malibu. All modern cars are way heavier than a comparable car from 50 years ago (and are, mostly, still made of steel)... Have you not been paying attention to everybody on here complaining how heavy cars have gotten?

Well... I mean... it is. When a big car hits a little car, the little car is going have a much larger ∆v than the big car.

E21 BMW!

I’m getting a mid-80's to early 90's Ford vibe from it... Escort? Tempo? Topaz?

A $15k asking price would be a scam. A $55k asking price is a special blend of stupidity and optimism... with maybe a dash of opportunism mixed in if he didn’t pay stupid money for it originally.

The font in the captions is small enough that I thought it said “Bear Compartment” instead of “Rear Compartment” when I first saw the picture.

You’re right... But the Street line is still garbage when compared to any other bike at the same price point.

I could live with a Harley powered Buell as a street bike... It has enough power to be entertaining, and I actually prefer V-twin, V-4, or big bang firing order I-4 noise to screamer I-4's on the street (I do prefer screamer I-4's noise at the track though)

Pretty sure that’s Rambo, dude.

Yeah, psychopathy.

Good. Paddle-shifted single clutch gearboxes are a bad idea and Lexus should feel bad.

CP because there’s no 1/4 mile times, and it’s owned by an old guy... meaning it’s probably never been abused.

That will be a while. An electric sportbike would be useless unless it can go 7 20-minute sessions on track with little or no charging (no superchargers at the track, and I typically burn through ~2 tanks of gas at a track day, give or take)

I think the big question is if it’s small enough to pass through a Labrador’s digestive system without a trip to the vet... If it’s not, then it’s both too big to poop out or too small to not get eaten, which is the exact wrong size for a toy that drives dogs insane.

It’s legitimately cool, but the long hood annoys me since there’s no functional need for it. Instead of a Land Rover, they should’ve used a cabover Jeep as their inspiration:
