@lexybeast: If I had a spare $100k I’d have other plans, and they might not include a Smart Car, either.

Cool, but I’d take a Tesla Roadster first… if, er, I had a spare $100k. Good to see LA drivers taking a turn for the more economical though, and as for safety, it looks safer than a motorcycle; plenty of those in LA.

that’s an awesome roll-cage, which isn’t really a roll-cage.

@Tiffany: No, you rock!! I’d say it’s time to visit the Smart Car USA website and put your money where your mouth is and reserve one now!

@weisheng: Indeed, so I’ve thought of that scenario many a time. And I’m telling ya I’m willing to go toe-to-toe. Okay, maybe more guerilla militia than toe-to-toe. If all else fails, I’m entering into a parking contest w/the Hummers and trucks/trailers.

Wow I’d be afraid to drive a Smart Car, imagine lining up next to a truck or trailer. I wouldn’t be able to get rid of the morbid thought of getting smashed by one of them :s

@Charles: Haha, I agree. And to prevent that, perhaps I’ll just park halfway into the parking spot instead of all the way.

@cristina: I’ll consider that a compliment! Thanks for stopping by!

The car itself reminds me of something out of “The Jetsons”. It’s so futuristic looking.

Hmm…you know what will happen? Every time you park in a parking lot, people are going to think that it’s an empty space and *almost* hit it!

@Glenn: Thank you for the lead! Unfortunately I am way behind you Canadians since you’ve had the car available to you for years, already! I was able to find the Smartcar of America forums, though, fortunately.

@jimmiwin: Hoo! Hoo! You know you wanna trade your Bimmer in.

@codemunky: I’m still floored they fit one into a GTI, actually. Nose-heavy, much?
