Smart Fortwo Passion Coupe

The New 2008 Smart car is very interesting. It is produced by Daimler - Mercedes Benz parent company. It doesn't look like much, but it's quite a cute little car. The interior is very nice and, according to Car and Driver, it's quite fun to drive as well. I'm sure it is too. Being that small, it must be so easy to get around with in the city. It comes with a 61 Cubic-Inch, 3 cylinder, 70 HP engine. For a car with a small engine and is small enough to park nose to curb between parallel parked cars, it only makes about 32 MPG according to tests from Car and Driver. If you want all the basic conveniences of regular cars, the car with the options will cost you just under $15,000. If you're interested in a small cute hatchback that's light on the gas, I think you'll get a better deal with a Toyota Yaris. But, it is a comfortable fit for two and is pretty fun, so I guess it has it's good and bad.
