Only thing I don't agree with is the Corvair. My Mom had one and it was pretty neat.

Well...I for one get paid $.49 cents on the mile past my home location. So that being the case the 41.8 MPG I get in my Fiesta nets a lot more at the end of the day compared to my Camaro at 16.3. I'd hate to see that sorry sack of $hit Smart try to get up some of the mountain passes I go on with a 3 cylinder.

My 2 cylinder SV650 could make it up!

Should with a curb weight under 400 pounds. You put that similar power into a 1,800 pound car and it becomes more of a gamble.

Wet weight is about 440, with 75HP. How much HP does the Smart have with 5x the weight? haha those things need to go.
