Designed and put to market are completely different things. Nearly every recent vaporware was “headed by” or “lead by” or “hired to lead” someone famous from other auto industry segment.

But wouldn’t it be better to dive into an activity with old garbage that won’t teach any decent technique, break all the time and therefore lose interest super fast because you never get to ride?
