what the Fu*k is that. They need to shove it back up the designer asshole

 

honestly, I really like the way that thing looks.....that's the first smart car that actually appeals to me...:thumbup: I love how aggressive the front looks.

 

It's actually based on the Mitsubishi Colt. Yet another instance of the DaimlerChrysler merger producing some kind of platform-sharing.





In Japan there are a bunch of trim levels, you can choose any combination of a 1.3-liter 90 hp inline-4 or 1.5-liter 98 hp inline-4 and either awd or fwd. My guess is this'll compete with Scion if anything at all.

Oh and...

Why is the rear break caliper painted yellow and the front isn't?

:wtf: :screwy:

 

Not bad... Front end could use a little work.
I like the Colt front elevation a bit more; the Smart schnoz looks a little distended to me..:eh:
I trust it will be front engine, front drive this time around?

 

its aight... i cant wait till they flood our street.. good for the eco :thumbup:

 

I'm not digging the two-tone paint job and huge panel gaps, but I guess that's the signature Smart style. The side profile looks pretty good though. If they painted it all one color, put on some normal tail lights and made the front clip more smoothed over (instead of having the huge quantities of cladding) it would look better; but I guess then it wouldn't look like a Smart.

 

I really like it. Smarts are supposed to be quirky and "fun"


I would drive one. :thumbup:

 

The two-tone plastic theme isn't cutting it for me. It looks fairly aggresive, but its most likely going to pack a wimpy 4 cyl (think Scion or Echo). For this car its the price that will make it a failure or success. It's not pretty, but I think theres enough buyers out there would be buy it at the right price.
