Does it come with a really cool remote control?
Posted by: Not My Usual Alias | September 08, 2008 at 09:38 AM
How cool would that be on Biscayne?

It's this little car with humongous monster tires riding around offroad.

Thanks Jeff. I, like MtB and ubetcha was kept from witnessing this marvel of male ingenuity.

It is a Smart Car on monster tires ...
Posted by: funniegrrl | September 08, 2008 at 10:24 AM
...and it's a good idea, too. I bet it gets better gas mileage (1.5mpg) vs. other monster trucks (1.25 mpg).
A local charity is raffling off a Smart Car (for real). I think the ticket prices are $100 for 1 chance, $50 for two...

OK, we're officially a crowd. Welcome, Sarc.
Thanks, Jeff and funniegrrl.

Why am I not surprised that a man would turn a Smart Car into a Dumb Car?

As I'm watching this, I'm thinking of a screenplay: "The Poseidon Adventure: Automotive Edition".

that should be fun going thru all kinds of traffic..smuuuush

The amazing thing is, it still gets 40 MPG!
Well, only when you're using it to crush old golf carts.

BTW, my comment and any other males' comments on this car were in every case our second reaction, because our first reaction was invariably, "OMG I WANT ONE!!!!"
Posted by: padraig | September 08, 2008 at 12:07 PM
Looks like one really big rollerskate.
So, naturally, I would need two.
Posted by: Punkin | September 08, 2008 at 12:13 PM
Oddly enough the Smart car STILL looks girly. Just slightly more butch than the original.

Amending padraig's comment:
BTW, my comment and any other males' comments on this car were in every case our second reaction, because our first reaction was invariably, "OMG I WANT ONE!!!!" . . . for my mom/girlfriend/little sister"

...And for our next trick, we'll put a supercharged Chrysler hemi into a Prius.
Just because.

Another idea for a smart car experiment would be to try to fit Shaquille O'Neal into one of those things.
If someone provides the funding for the research, I'd be willing to give it a try...

or maybe see how many midget clowns fit in there!!
Posted by: queensbee | September 08, 2008 at 02:33 PM
That car's center of gravity is so high you wouldn't be able to do much with it. The moment you tried to crush another car, you'd topple over.
That doesn't make it any less cool, of course.
Posted by: Schadeboy | September 08, 2008 at 03:25 PM
Don't know how many midget clowns you can fit in there, but here is how many cheerleaders you can fit in a Smart Car.
Posted by: Dorakay | September 08, 2008 at 03:41 PM
Shaq could wear one Smart Car on his FOOT!
