This is not the best picture taken in our garage. Introducing our new baby "The Smart Car" Sorry only in Canada and Europe" :(

Seriously this is a great car. Filled up the car for 14 dollars canadian the other day. Goes 500 kms for our $20 I believe that would be 340 miles per tank. The tank is only 22 litres. We are taking her to Disney figure it will cost us @ $50.00 US to get to Disney from Toronto Canada.

Just wanted to show you our little baby and she is, engine weighs only 70 pounds but she travels 135KM per hour or @90 miles an hour I think. Great on the highway as we travel 200 KM a day on major highways.

Maybe some day they will get to the USA.

LOL @ PixieBella!

That is a really cool looking car! :) And with gas prices more crazy than ever..that's awesome milage!! :cool1:
 

how much was it? i saw this on some channel and thought it looked funny, almost like a fish.
 
Ohhhh how jealous I am of you! I saw those while in Europe and I thought to myself, that is the car for me. Cute, small and will fit into ANY parking space! Have fun in it!
 
I didn't realize they weren't available in the U.S. You see them everywhere in Canada now.

How long was the waiting list to get one? (I would so consider it when we need a second car for commuting)

Wow!! Why are they not available in the US? They are so cute.
 
I *love* Smart Cars. I have seen them in the UK and Europe for years. Your seems to be a bit tame compared to most I have seen. But still ... a very cute car! Too bad it only has 2 seats and no room for the dog ;).
 
They are very cute. I had seen a lot in the major cities, but, the 1st one just moved into our little farming town. The farmers in their huge trucks don't know whether to go around it or over it, lol.
:moped:

yep, not a farmer but I have an extended cab ranger (mid sized) and I get the same confusion from getting behind regular "bugs". Although for that kind of gas milage, I might consider one for the ~50 mile round trip commute i have to drive each day. If Rita has her way we will be paying $5-6 a gallon before long. Do they make an RC version? :duck:
