Smart cars?


Most Italian cars are VERY tiny, as it were, but the Smart car is tinier than them all! So, you'd think they'd cost less, right? My Italian friend Ruben bought a brand new Smart car 3 weeks ago and it cost him €15,000, which is nearly $23,000! Only two people can ride at a time, but inside, its surprisingly spacious. As for gas consumption, they do consume much less, so it might save money in the end. He reports that a smart car on diesel fuel gets about 60 miles to the gallon. Obviously, parking the smart car is a DREAM, its facilissimo!

That might be a "smart car" but I think it just looks silly!
