I had a poster of this on my wall as a kid, I wanted one so bad. Seeing it here makes me want one again.

But at original MSRP, not the $250k they said they go for now…

    I had a buddy that I went to college with, was paraplegic and got a big payout from insurance, and so he bought one of these, got it fitted with hand controls, and we’d roar around the city in it.

    I remember jumping one of those old rail bridges that went up at an angle, flattened out and then down at a steep angle on the other side, probably doing 120 km/h on a gravel road. I had to give him a hand welding the front spring towers back in the next day.
