I loved my little Nighthawk 250, although it was nerve wracking on the freeway. Topped out realistically at about 70.

Sweet glory.  Yes please.

Dangit, Japlonik..... *adds to ever-increasing list of cars I "need" but can't yet afford*

Chances are they took the commission from her anyway... At least if it was anything like the dealership I worked at for a while.

Jeez this thread is full of haters. This is actually really clever (even if not that novel) and now that I see it broken down like this I understand Christian’s confusion in interviews as to why no one else was doing this.

The scariest part of self driving machines is on a motorcycle.  I don't trust them to recognize what's going on, or to not run me over at a stoplight because it detected the car in front of me and not me, or do anything, really.

Have to agree with you there. I think the c5 was slightly better, but the c6 and 7 were both big successive steps down in the style department.

My username would be remiss if I didnt say I was excited about this.

The obvious solution here would be have a small metal frame that is bolted to the car as an additional body panel, not to weld it directly to the rest of the car... This would not be as horrible as some of the comments have described, and could still offer an improvement in both aerodynamics and weight. I agree with…

A truer statement has never been said

I call bs. I have definitely seen 3 digits a couple of times. And I’m in an 04.

Oooh, I only wish my 5 spd was 4wd.  Still a shockingly capable offroader. 

I have definitely hosed mine out a number of times. Shoot some dawn on the floor and then hose it. Simple.

Dont know how, I get 24 in mine, and the gearing is awfully low. It does 5th at 35 mph as kind of a standard. I’m revving around 4k on any freeway. It is one of only 2 complaints I’ve had with it.

I love my element. It’s an 04, one owner, with nearly 200k miles. But here’s the kicker, its a 5 speed manual. I learned to drive stick in this car (and have tought I think 15 others to drive stick in it).

How is the top comment not "and a manual transmission.  I'd accept the styling as fine for mk5 if it had a manual.  I agree about the power through.  Wtf.
