Looks like a Lava Custom build. Something about having stupid amounts of money and being able to cater to those people means you can explore some insane builds.

Good to hear from you, where have you been. Finally stopped snowing, bet you are glad for that.
Not having a sling keeps me from coming here from time to time. Because if I keep coming here, I will end up buying another one. lol. I wish I could be happy about the weather, but we have had biblical rains in Colorado for the last 5 weeks or so. As a side note...I have been eyeballing another Sling...I blame this site. lol And yes...it will have another 4 wheel conversion.

Was possibly me...3 years ago when I came back after my 4 wheel conversion was done by TrakHamr. Haven't been in the Iowa area since...

In reality...how is any different from what Google released back in 2013 with Google Glass? I have never been an Apple fan...even though I use the apple environment at home (iMac, iPad, iPhone, apple watch)... But I always felt that Apple is always playing catch up in technology and then all their fans come out with "But they do it so much better." Which is not really the case.

Im looking at all these mods and now asking myself, what did I get myself in to!!!! 😂😂😂😂... But imma slow walk it... One mod at a time!!!
As someone that did pretty much everything under the sun with the exception of the 4 seat conversion and the LS swap...I have 1 piece of advice. Research, research, research. You will save a ton of money. lol
And I am actively looking for another one...Not sure what I am thinking.

I have owned or tested 5 different tops. It really comes down to budget and style. I personally have always loved the Vback with the canvas top or the Twist Dynamics with the canvas top. I never did get a chance to test the top from All Things Slingshot, but that was going to be my next purchase before selling my sling. If money is no object, the Slingshade is the priciest as well as the most stylish look. I will say that almost none of the tops will keep your seat completely out of the sun . As the sun moves, it can warm up your seats pretty fast. I will say that Aftermarket seats like PRP don't seem to heat up as much as fast.

UAS had one last week or the week before. It was actually fairly priced compared to a lot of the Slingshots I have been seeing on the market.
-
I had up it to $14,000.00

It's about time you got back in the Slingshot game.
Actively looking for a good deal. Then I have to set a budget...my last build got out of hand. lol

Okay $12,500 I will fly EjFord out to California. He can drive it back to Indiana. Hopefully by the time he gets back he’ll have all the California politics blown out of it.
Hell if we are doing that...for $12,501 and a six pack, I will fly out and pick it up and drive it back to Colorado! It will feel at home with all the Californians moving here. lol

I just saw an ad for the new electric Vanderhall. It's looking pretty sharp.
-
rabtech I love this...because I have been looking for the same thing...
-
You can get you another one. You want, that might make you happy again.
JUST SAYIN
I've been eyeballing another one...aaaand...I have been keeping tabs on my old one. lol
-
Hope all is well with the family.
Everything is good here. Just ramping up for the holidays. Got family in from Indiana right now.
Hope all is well in your world!

The rear wheel ruined it. The concept is pretty cool...but in all reality, it would have worked better on a Vanderhall. But then again, I constantly feel that Gotham does some things that they shouldn't. In this case...They took everything that a slingshot is and got rid of it.
-
Anyone check with Lanny McKee? I know his first one was around 95K 2 years ago...and his second one was over 50K already...I think he still has both.
-
I remember I put on 18K miles in the first 3 years...the last 2 years I owned it, 3200 miles...and a good chunk of that was from Colorado to Michigan for the 3 wheel conversion. lol
-
California is just it's own little weird corner of the world. That article is also from 2016. My guess is that in California the Atom could be registered as a kit car...even though there is no kit lol. I do know that there are plenty in California just based off the Ariel Chat forum.
-
unfortunately I don't think you can just buy one and drive it in California - Is it legal
if you read that link it tells you the process needed to get one to be street legal in CA - - - considering this and the price you would probably be better off throwing a quad kit on your slingshot along with a DDM supercharger - - - probably even save some money
You can actually get it road legal from the factory. I have 2 friends that have bought them that way.
As far as doing a quad kit and boost...I did that. And I drove both back to back on a track. It is a completely different vehicle. The quad gives you good stability...and the 2.4L with the Hahn turbo gave it good power...but the Ariel Atom is more of a surgical instrument. In the proper hands it can do amazing things. The Quad with boost slingshot is lightyears away from an Atom. It's the reason they get the asking price and then some for them.
