This seems more like a money grab than an actual business plan about producing any actual Live Wire bikes. In other words, Rivian, Nikola, et al (and yeah, apparently Rivian will actually ya know, make something . . .)

I don’t AUTOMATICALLY hate on slushboxes, because in most creep-along city-driving situations, it’s a good choice and a leg-saver. This car is a daily-driver, presents well and price isn’t crazy. Nice Price.

Interesting, but there are massive BUTS about hauling around a lot of butts in this thing. Even if you can afford it, you probably wouldn’t need or want it. Massive No Dice coming . . .

Hmmmm . . . donuts!

I’ll preface this by saying I’ve been racing my whole adult life, so I am quite familiar with the types of people who race. Max strikes me as someone constantly seeking the approval of others and will literally do anything to get it. Those are the racers I dislike and do not trust, because they will literally take me

I was all set to tickle the No Dice button, but reading this and looking at those photos . . . hell, this is Nice Price because of its amazing condition. Owner must have a severe case of OCD, but it pays off here! Had one of this generation and great driving cars. Nice Price!

That $15,000 is a downpayment on a similar amount to make this worth about . . . maybe $15,000 once restored, repainted, refurbished, whatever term you want to throw at it. This is somebody who imported it for the specific reason of reselling it at a premium. Sort of like flipping houses for profit, with cheap “new”

Probably that’s it. This is an example of Cadillac’s brain-dead model naming schemes, which some “wizard” at GM dreamed up because he thought it made them more European-sounding. Or something . . .

I have one of those bargain Kindles (a Fire tablet actually) and have never even once responded to any of the ads. I can put up with 5 seconds of their ads to get to the books I carry around on it. A little annoying, but worth it.

Whatever Cadillac calls (called?) it, swoopy body, Vette motor and a mesh grill . . . basically a Corvette with a Cadillac shell.

I was thinking of the coupe, whatever the hell Caddy is calling it . . .

Oh hell no! I might be somewhat interested if [insert confusing Cadillac model names . . .] this was the one with the Corvette engine, but for a Northstar, just nope!

Beautiful! Love to own it! But 50 large for a 14 YO car is a stretch for anyone. And then there’s that engine which isn’t considered a paragon of reliability or ease of maintenance. A hard pass on this one . . .

Too much for too little. Once you get past the horsepower aspect, you’re stuck with a 2-seat pickup with a small bed. Using it for truck-like chores is a pain as just not enough room inside or out. Maybe at half the price he’s asking, but No Dice otherwise.

Oh bullshit! A standard take on what you can do with these bikes. I can find another 100 without even looking hard. He took a new bike and made it “look” old-timey, and none of what it did improves it in any way. Nothing innovative here. Quit sucking up to these guys, sheesh.

Instant NO Dice. Big price for a vehicle that 99.5 percent of the world has never seen or likely would care about. Maybe for a museum of oddball cars, provided admission was free.

ASS-suming this isn’t a scam or there are huge mechanical or electronic problems not mentioned, this is definitely a nice price. Lust-worthy set of wheels in seemingly great shape. Sexy and rare! But, you need to have the cash reserves to deal with any problems.

I like Saabs, especially the pre-GM-fuckups, but this one has a few too many pimples to be worth that asking price. No Dice. Clean it up, fix what needs fixing, and then you can ask that much money.

Interesting, but MV dealers are few and (very) far between. Also almost too pretty to take off-road. And that 5.5 version is down on power and the Chinese mfr making the engine is not especially well regarded.

Depends upon what you mean by “pick up.” Check for a pulse first.
