If it's a "muscle bike" it doesn't really need top shelf brakes or suspension. As long as it's priced accordingly, and what it has is safe and pleasant enough to use, it doesn't really matter if it can't turn or stop like a properly sporty machine.

He won five championships...... in a row. If your top five of all time have similarly amazing feats to their name, it seems as though it doesn't matter what order you put their names in as you can easily make the case that each of them are the greatest of all time.
You have my attention.
My tastes lean heavily towards conservative, and understated aesthetic modifications, if any at all. But this looks great.
There's a surprising number of "Bomber Harris" types in here.
Yeah, but the Mustangs and Camaros that are the first to be considered classics are the Z/28's (or SS, depending on the generation) and GT500/350/Cobra's of the breeds. The bread and butter V-8 models you see all over the place don't make "classic" status for a long, long time; typically long after you stop regularly…
I think this kind of falls into the category of “any well cared for vehicle is likely to be desirable to somebody” category, rather than “classic.” As good a car as the Civic Si is, it’s not particularly special or noteworthy. So maybe some day way, way in the future, but not any time soon.

I grew up in an area where the Monte Carlo SS of that vintage was one of my favorite cars. I grew up and my tastes have mostly changed, but I still really like them.
I enjoy driving too much to ever seriously consider one of these.
Fantastically stupid?
In those other cars, sure, no imagination. But a Chevy V-8 in a...... Chevy? Why not?
The “shit or get off the pot” approach. Seems well reasoned.
If I knew anything about Ferraris I’d consider it as an investment. Unfortunately I don’t know enough to not get screwed.
I was super excited until I saw that this was posted to lanesplitter, as I have a preference for four wheeled vehicles at the track.
I’d rather have a Mustang II than that boat.

I’m all on board the “lets save the planet” train, but is targeting the hundreds of cars that do dozens of miles on any given weekend going to help anything? It seems like there are whales yet to fry regarding harmful emissions but they’re focusing any amount of effort on this utterly insignificant slice of people?
I always had a suspicion that VW executives were members here....
I love this car, I would really like to have one as my wife’s primary vehicle.
