That’s the worst car ever made :p
The car is a: Fortwo cdi.

You wouldn’t have to parallel park; just drive the fucker straight towards the curb and stop.
I bet it doesn’t even come with a jack to change the tire… just lift up with one hand…
Who in their right mind would get into a car like that. Imagine if an F350 hit that…
I’ve seen them sold in this huge glass cylinder outside Stuttgart that made it look more like a gumball machine. Crazy.
I’ve driven the Four4, the four door version, and it wasn’t the best thing in the world, but it did fit more than I thought, kept up fairly well in Italian traffic, and the mpg was acceptable at the equivalent of $6/gallon.
There’s a sweet third model though – the roadster.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_Roadster
i dont like the smart car but just to set the record straight they are extremly strong in accidents and they are actually safer than a ford truvk like the f 150.
but on a sadder point for the car teens have actually been arrested for tipping them over so yes it is a lightweight car.
Do they sell those cars in the states?
Yes, they’re sold in the US now as imports. I like them actually, but Consumer Reports said that the Smart 4Two was the worst car they’ve ever driven.

Also, there are a few other versions. I’ve driven the 4Four, and there used to be the Smart Roadster, which looked fantastic.
Here’s the Consumer Reports link:
www.consumerreports.org/cro/cars/past-road-test/budget-cars-12-06/smart-fortwo/1206_car_smart_fortwo.htm?resultPageIndex=1&resultIndex=1&searchTerm=smart%20car
btw: that car was introduced in europe in 1998. so.. lul. 😛
but its easy to drive, a good car for the city (okay, probably not on the west-coast..)
“Highs: Fuel economy, access, visibility, turning circle, easy to park, cute.
Lows: Transmission, acceleration, handling, agility, ride, noise, transmission, controls, seats only two, price, cargo area.”
Transmission is mentioned twice. I think consumer reports REALLY does not like the transmission in that car.
In case you think you’re an onion when you wake up, break glass.
“i dont like the smart car but just to set the record straight they are extremly strong in accidents and they are actually safer than a ford truvk like the f 150.”
Are you fucking kidding me? I think my 5 ton f150 is a little safer then this thing. Seriously.
“Are you fucking kidding me? I think my 5 ton f150 is a little safer then this thing. Seriously.”
i agree, the fortwo test results are good compared to the ones of other small cars. it’s not bad, but most sedans nowadays get way higher scores.
on the other hand, cmon, it is kind of needless to cart around 5 tons of … car and maybe 180 lbs of payload. or at least expensive.
My Hummer eats four of those cars for breakfast every day.
Driver and all.
God bless America!
lol now everybody knows
What’s the point of a penis extension that’s actually smaller than your penis?
They got 43 mpg out of it. Ok, a 1990 CRX HF made 49 city and 52 hwy. Now i’ve made 43 mpg avg. on a tank of gas in my 90 CRX Si, which is still a 2 seater, looks waaaay better and is still quick enough to outrun tiki’s F-150. Of course, I’ve modified mine to make it faster while improving gas mileage though. Remember, these cars were made in 1990.
Forgot to add, all my modifications are smog legal, it still passes incpection and they could easily, cheaply be done from the factory…
“still quick enough to outrun tiki’s F-150”
dude, a 1970 olds on it’s last leg could outrun my truck, at least in the first mile or so. I top out a bit more then it would 😉
well only 2 persons fit in, but i ride in one of those cars frequently on the “AUTOBAHN” /hint hint/ and they’re roomier than they look, and pretty fast too. very good gas mileage too. they look puny thogh, i’ll give you that.
