Somehow, in order to disguise the fact that a car is TINY, they have to make it look STUPID.

I'll bet you could get grouper rates on your auto insurance...even if you've been in a finder bender or two. I think the mileage estimates my be a little puffered up. I hope this idea sells as I'd hate to see the dealers go belly-up...it wouldn't serve any good porpoise.

I wanted one of those when they came out, too. It was supposed to have had a Wankel engine produced by GM, but GM killed that program, so AMC had to scramble to find another engine to shoehorn under the hood. They had a lot of room inside the cabin, tho.....

Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to drive a fish, and he will be laughed at for life!
