Wow... Marques is trying to out-Flo Flo.

I wonder why they used such a half-assembled prototype for the background?

I think this was done a while ago... It does not even have the newer pants on.

Okay, so... DID THEY EVER TAKE THE FRONT WIDTH DOWN? The new pants make it look wider. Dunno if that's an illusion or not.

WE NEED MEASUREMENTS! WHERE ARE OUR NINJAS!!?!?!

The measurements are listed on the new brochure as 86" (7' 2") - I believe it was originally around 90". 2" on either side isn't much, though!

The front width is stated as 86 inch = 218.44 centimeters.

To wide for the EU if the rules do not change.

Cool, thanks for the info.

Its good the front wheels are pulled in a bit, but it does still really look quite wide. I need to test drive one. :)

Yeah that's what I used for the first measurement as well (ForumLink (http://apteraforum.com/showpost.php?p=49699&postcount=11)) but Karen stated the 86 inches number as the OAW in the brochure (Overall width). ForumLink (http://apteraforum.com/showpost.php?p=49700&postcount=12)

Yeah, the wheel pants themselves add width.
