America is FINALLY getting Smart...

Next year we will finally be catching up with the rest of the civilized world. We will be importing the Smart (as seen here parallel parking).



The only car designed by Swatch (the watch company) and sold out of giant vending machines.


Idn't it cute? It would look great next to your bike:


and in Texas, you could always just tote it around on the back of your Hummer incase you run outta gas:

From another perspective... (yeah yeah I know... "You get killed in that thing!")

Although, you can't squeeze Mini Cooper horse power out of a three cylinder engine. This is more like a 4 wheeled scooter with a roof. I would buy one, but I suspect they will be a bit pricy for what you get. Time will reveal.
