Default I want a Smart car now...

...but not just any Smart car. Just watch. There's plenty of other YouTube videos on the subject but this gets right to the point.

YouTube - Ferrari vs Smart car












P.S. Its a Hayabusa engine.

Id take it! But that Ferarri had a terrible launch. I saw one of those things today and I think that I would rather be T bones on a bike then in one of those things because they are so small

I'd rather just have the whole Hayabusa, but its still kinda cool in that total-waste-of-time-and-energy-and-money sort of way. Good for a chuckle.

Why are so many people in this country so scared of small vehicles? "oh noes! t3h semi truxz!!! I neadZ SOMThInGZ JUZ AZ bigZZZ!!"

BTW, the smart is one of the safest cars out there, do some research on the subject maybe?

I've heard that as well. Monday morning of this week, I saw a big car hauler packed full of them going to Dallas. Looked like there were about 50 of those little things packed onto that trailer.

If I had my choice, I'd take the Ferrari.

But, with gas the way it is I may start looking at the little cars like that

i have no idea why they are importing those here. come on, top speed of 70mph. you can't even take it on the freeway safetly. and if you do you will have to keep it floored the entire time. most americans have no use for that car, especially at the price they are asking.

but im sure it would be great for tootling down the Champs-Elysées and picking up some croissants.

The top speed of the smart fortwo is 90 mph (Electronically limited).

I'd get a Smart car if they were cheaper.

It is sooooo small.... I could fit more motorcycles in the garage
