Smart Cars

[MoeTheBartender]

Hello All!
Check out the new 'Smart' car that has invaded our shores...
These babies are the cool cars driven in Europe and now it's been distributed here by Daimler-Benz.

The car is created by Nicholas Hynek, the dude who made those 'Swatch' watches.

I wouldn't be caught dead driving one of those stupid looking things, even if they are trendy in Europe.

I wonder what a SmartDriver looks like.

If the price of gas keeps climbing, a car with fuel economy that's twice as good as most others - better in many cases - might assuage our hurt sense of style...

You don't have to drive something that looks ridiculous to get better gas mileage. Some of the Hybrids like the Honda Civic Hybrid for instance look like a normal car.

For fuel economy I'd stick with my TDi Golf

I've driven the Smart. it's actually a LOT of fun to drive. AND it's small enough that it can be parked almost anywhere.

it looks more like a caddie to me.. except it doesn't carry two sets of clubs.
