- pivo 14y agoWow, thanks! I very nearly bought one of those.
- sliverstorm 14y agoGod, those SMART cars, I used to think they were neat. Then I learned that the ONE THING you would think they could do well - fuel economy - isn't even that impressive. Something like 40mpg for the base model?
- stephengillie 14y agoThey get as good MPG as my 13 year old Sentra.
- lurker14 14y agoSMART car is $12-$25K now, so that problem is solved.
