I don't know why but this piece of crap is the bomb. Nothing like Europes smart car with a 200hp GSXR1300 cramed in there. http://youtube.com/watch?v=vExpEl0_5-Y
Haha, awesome! My mom really likes the Smart cars and I was afraid for awhile that she was going to get one whenever they made it to the states (next year I believe). I think I've finally talked her into a Mini though
Have a look at the crash tests on the Smarts. Top Gear ran one into a concrete barrier at 70mph or so and the doors still worked.
I think they may already be over here in limited quantities. I saw one in Peachtree City last week. Or maybe he imported it? Craig
They can be bought here but for some rather insane prices. The official importing starts next year or so and then we'll see the more normal pricing...
Canada has them. My parents talked to a guy who drove one once and that's where he said he got his from.
