Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Smart Cars are coming!
YAY!!! I love them. I think they are wacky/funny, and also a brilliant idea. And they make them in leopard print now!

I want a Smart Car. But then, I do very little driving in the city, and I'd probably want something bigger for road trips....

My problem with Smart Cars is that because of various costs associated with importing they are still fairly pricey for what they are.

I've only seen pictures of Smart Cars. Very cute, and seem like a good idea if you have a lot of in town driving to do. I'd be afraid to take one on the interstate, I think, and that would really limit it's usefulness for me.

Sometimes I'd think it'd be fun to have an old (mid-'60s or older) VW Beetle to use to run around town....

I think that a lot, tommyrot. Especially when I see a VW convertible with a for sale sign.

Yeah, Smart Cars are a lot cheaper here than they would be in the US. But they have a great maintenance record, and the savings in gas could really drop the price of ownership.
I think the savings in headaches are probably not as great in most US cities, especially west of the Mississippi, but here they are a dream for getting through tight streets and finding parking. And they actually fit in Athens Fantasy Car parking spaces, which my Passat doesn't.
My landlord has a ForTwo, and does not use it for long trips, but then he's got a very cush Mercedes with basically a home theater in it for that.
