Smart car ...apparrently

Welcome to the horror that they call the Smart car

Engine is a 600cc Mercedes design, the better ones with a turbo kicking out about 80 hp.

Designed by Swatch (they should have stuck to plastic watches) and manufactured my Damlier-Chrysler.

Watch out USA - you could end up with these soon!

They're getting pretty popular in the UK around London ...and my once sensible wife thinks that they're cute ....luckily she only has a bike licence, so no mad purchases yet!

Be afraid..be very afraid

Yes, I agree our cars here are getting smaller and smaller!!!
I was at the Houston Auto Show this last weekend and sat in all sorts of autos. Everything from the Hummer (not the H2 crap but the real one!) to the Mini Cooper.
I have to admit, my 6'3" 330 lb. big self actually fit in the Mini better than the larger Range-Rovers and the Hummer! Still I don't like putting a car on like a pair of pants. I'm a truck guy thru and thru!

My gosh, I think that if you get to carried away with the turbo and ported heads, the thing will just go airborne. Scarry stuff.

Ride Safe.

[chopper]

[Wayne]

Hey, hot tub! That might be fun to take to Daytona Bike Week.
Comon girlies!!
Of course, I don't know where you'd put the beer, no room!
