Dolph you are a brave person buying never even seeing one. There is not much room in a M3W as you likely know after reading TM posts. If long of leg get the dealer to move the pedals as far forward as possible before you collect it.

I bought mine without seeing one. First time I heard ones firing up my own. If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room :-)

Aww common its. I was looking for a new project to restore-a supersport. and I ran into the "new" 3 wheeler on line. I lusted after the new one for 6 months and finally got to sit in one not drive it just sit in it. A real hassle to even get into the car. I could barely get under the steering wheel and when finally did the peddles were in the way. My brother said I was nuts,crazy, and deranged. I said yes but I still want it, I can fix all that (I did). Now after two years (with all the 2012 problems) I can honestly say my car is one of the nicest and most fun gifts I've ever given myself. Don't worry, you will love it!

Hi Dolph If you like old school motoring where it's more fun driving on the slower curvey roads enjoying the wind in your face, part sports car, part old plane cockpit flying with the HD audio track.
I also bought my M3W from Motorcycles of Charlottle, I was shopping all the U.S. Dealers websites and found my Orange Carrot in shipment to the Charlotte dealer. I used a transportion broker to have it shipped to South Florida in a covered trailer. Shipping a three wheeler with a middle wheel caused a few added questions when asking for the right kind of trailer to support that center wheel.
There are many You Tube videos to get a feel for the machine.
Many happy miles to you too!

I took a test drive a month ago and wrote a deposit check as soon as we returned. I've been driving and riding for 46 years. I've owned Corvettes, Triumphs, Porches, Lotuses, and a slew of bikes. A bike still tops on my list but this thing is soooooo close I could give up bikes due to old age and almost be fully satisfied. Mine starts building 9 days!

Thanks, all y'all, for all the kind words and good advice and PMs.
Stewart, you are right. The anticipation of buying something without seeing it is part of the fun.
Clipper, you must have been to Louisiana before.........
It's Just Me, my wife calls me loony tunes and even worse sometimes, so that's always my excuse. I do have about 20 strong "frames of references" in the stable to compare the Morgan to, but I bet it passes.
And I gladly accept membership into the American Eagle Squadron !!!!!

When I took delivery of the M3W in mid 2013, I owned six motorcycles. I am down to a single motorcycle at this point and it hasn't been ridden in nearly a year. The three wheeler is that much fun!!

hi I bought my 2017 a few months ago. saw it on ebay and contacted the dealer. I had a polaris slingshot and was just about ready to buy a vanderhall but after showing my wife some utube videos of a morgan she said go for the morgan. then i read all the issues with the m3w and thought oh no, what did i do. life is short and i am getting up in age so why not. so far i love it. I own 3 harleys and a new corvette and this is more fun than all of them together. you will enjoy it and never look back.

I had never driven one but the first time I saw one was in 1963 and if I remember correctly it was a JAP version. I could not believe how cool it looked and said to myself, someday i will get one.
July 7 , 2019 I took delivery of one and have had soooo much fun driving it. It is the most fun I have ever had driving a vehicle.

Well I loved the little car the first time I ever saw one. Be that I never saw one in person. I watched every you tube video and article I could find. I looked everywhere for one and eventually just cooled down and decided I really didn't need that little car. Well a year rolls around and I see the car again on the internet and I am back on the trail. I was going to order one but found one that caught my attention in West Virginia. Talked to Shane at Morgan of Morgantown. Struck a deal, called a transport and had it delivered to me in Arkansas. I couldn't wait to see it in person. They are a lot smaller than I expected, but it is as cool as I had hoped for. Unfortunately I got this right around the time it was getting cold so I haven't had much seat time with it.
