"Smart Car: How Smart Is It?".

The car is Smart.

The driver is dumb, dumber, dumbest.

Consumer Reports said roughly the same things about the Smart in their review. Not remotely as good as the Honda Fit.

My uncle has one, and the car is a real 'beercan' in my opinion. It doesn't even get mileage as high as it should in real driving conditions because you have to thrash the hell out of that small motor to get going. As others have said, the Honda Fit for a bit more money is a WAY better car...

Regards,
John

the problem for me is I can't even remember the last time I managed to drive over 65 on any freeway around here. Not that I am law abiding, either, there is just too much traffic. So although there are a bunch of those smartcars around I can honestly say I've never even seen one going 60.
