Don't write off the Smart car on size or refinement. I have driven one and in the city and its great for parking, the front seats have more room than a Neon and it has all the bells and whistles of it's bigger brothers. Having a Mercedes motor cycle engine means that it's gas mileage put's you back under a dollar a gallon!

Also, I've seen the two seater and while really cool, there is no way you are going to fit 2 - 250 pound people side by side, they would look like circus clowns stuffed into the seats. People want utility in their vehicles and still be as efficient as possible. tallex Smart Car Coming to US in 2008 Launch by DaimlerChrysler > > > >< http://www.alternate-energy.net/N/news.php?detail=n1151818384.news > > > > -------Original Message------- > From: Hakan Falk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [Biofuel] smart car coming to US in 2008 > Sent: 02 Jul '06 06:56 > > > They do have a 4 seater model already, it is selling in Europe for > quite a while. > > Hakan > > > At 08:06 02/07/2006, you wrote: > > >Great idea but I think that they better make a four seater for the > >US market.
