Glad you caught that. I was just getting back on this thread to edit my post. I did have a 2010 Synergy Green Camaro but sold it due to lack of use. My girlfriend was driving her daughter to school in it and I told her "since she's graduating and we've only put about 2600 miles on it in 2 years, I'm selling it." Girlfriend was pissed. I loved the look of the car but they suck to drive with too many blind spots. Was always leery about taking it out with the window tint.

That appears terribly uncomfortable....I'm sure it's not but it has that look.

It comes fully loaded. Adjustable seat and handlebar height, to match your comfort settings.

I put anywhere from 50-120 miles on her a week.

Against better judgment just picked up an Infinity G37 for wife's birthday - not sure why a sedan needs that much horsepower, but she really wanted it.

Hopefully done buying cars for another 10 years.
