Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

I fully recognize that our team is broke because of the owner. I was just reflecting on the state of the QB position in general.

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

Unless you live and work in a large city, there is little reason to actually buy one. The car seems much more suited to Europe or Japan.

You know someone with entirely too much money on their hands is going to buy one and hot rod it.

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

Brabus has already done that with the Smart Roadster. Although, IIRC the ForTwo is the only model they're bringing to the US and would make a really crappy platform for a performance car. I believe it won Top Gear's comedy handling award though.

There are tons of them here in Canada.

Hell there was a smart car meet at the same park as Can-am this year. We had like 15 cougars, they had over 200 Smart cars!

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

How many people does it seat? 2?

I've never seen one of those in person before....

Re: The Undead Gateway Thread

Two seats and a tiny little storage place behind the seats, that's it.
