I couldn't find the link to this info - and I don't understand French..... Thanks in advance for the links if you have them. I guess this is a toy for rich guys only.

I guess PR has it's place and they are hoping a lot of people will come and look at this spectacle and end up buying a family car. Don't get me wrong. I like speed, I like big engines but I also like practical and for things to have a purpose. What is the purpose of a quarter million dollar quad? Off road (where a quad belongs) a $5000 Honda quad would put this thing to shame. On road a Hayabusa GSXR1300 would spank this thing for about $270,000 less.

I'm going to assume that for over a quarter-million dollars, these guys did something to ensure this quad can do more than shred tires and flip over. I will probably never know, because it is blasphemously expensive. But if I spent that much on a quad, I would drive it EVERYWHERE.
