burgersling Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 Now Jim and Joshk have something to get excited about. Quote
catbirdseat Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 Someone will have a great business opportunity for a new spray-on product called "Smart Car Remover". Quote
Off_White Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 That thing would be just the ticket for commuting from Ballard to Wallingford. Quote
lummox Posted March 19, 2004 Author Posted March 19, 2004 it is probably fun to drive but i woulnt want to be in a wreck. Quote
scott_harpell Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 Those things are sooo tiny. There are shit loads in Holland. I imagine 2 moderately strong men could move one by hand. Quote
Fejas Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 They put that thing between two of the largest SUV's out there... Its not much smaller than a mini couper... or a geo metro for that matter... Moris Minor... Quote
klenke Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 The cool thing about this car is that you can choose to never remove it from the box, thereby increasing its collector value: Quote
To_The_Top Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 There are tons of those things in Paris, and for that matter there are even smaller cars there. Quote
scott_harpell Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 Yeah, When I lived there as a kid, there were 3 wheeled cars. When I went back, there weren't as many. Funny looking things though. Quote
cj001f Posted March 19, 2004 Posted March 19, 2004 Yes they are small - instead of paralell parking they can park endwise in some parking spots! I was in Geneva for the introduction several years ago - they had free demos running around town. Very cool car for the urban dweller. Quote
lummox Posted March 19, 2004 Author Posted March 19, 2004 like an atv with two doors? where ya put the gun rack? Quote
glacierdog Posted March 22, 2004 Posted March 22, 2004 A friend of mine was renting a convertable smart car while we were in Germany. It was maybe 7 feet long, and looked like a Transformer. It was fun to drive though. Like a go-cart. My butt was maybe 10 inches off the ground. Easily went 260 kph on the autobahn. God help you if you wreck in one. Quote
