imagine drivin a smart and a big lumbering Navigator pulls up right beside you, id be scurred... and plus its prolly so easy to steala smart..just pick it up and thow it in your pocket and walk away no ones the wiser...i have enough trouble gettin my hockey stick to fit in my accord. a smart car is just as versatlie as a viper but not as much fun to drive.

Actually, I've watched the crash test videos on the Smart's website, and it fairs better than most cars. It's SO small, I think that it's a good thing... kinda like punching a golf ball through a windshield... What's gonna fair better, the windshield, or the golf ball? 
They're around 20K, up to 25K for a fully loaded one, not to expensive at all by today's standards.
And the best thing, they're so small when ya buy them, that you just drive it over the UPC scanner at the grocery store and you're good to go! [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

I'm keeping my eye on the new Accord Hybrid...interesting to see how that engine turns out.
Just can't bear the thought of seeing a smart car in my garage.
Although I would finally have room for my hockey equipment, bike, skiis, work bench, pool table, patio set in there too!

Imagine how loud one of those Smarts could be though?
a good set of tweets and an 18WRMS amp and you could probably hit like like 195 at least
But seriously, I'll bet a decent set of components would be just RUDE in one of those off 75WRMS and a 10 or 12 in the back, if it'd fit.....pretty loud I would imagine. say good-bye to whatever you planned on carrying in there though.....wallet, purse, smokes and lighter, all gotta go, no room left after the 1 12" and the K2 set.
