But, remember it only holds two. Any model of the Yaris holds 4. Makes more sense to get a Yaris, if you ask me.

not if you're single.

It's cute. I have felt, since they came out years ago that it's a little expensive for what you get, in terms of power, etc - a bit like you are paying for a label, but you still don't even get the benz badge. They have since become several thousand dollars cheaper and are a much better deal, especially now with the addition of a sunroof. I often see elderly drivers grocery shopping in them.

my friend's friend in huntington beach imported the first two about two years ago. this one had full brabus fenders, wheels, interior. clean... he sold them for $25k each and they only cost $12k used. he told me he'd give it to me for $15k way back then but i thought they looked too weird haha. it had carpool stickers though which was a plus.

here's another angle of the smart...

even if you're single, it's always good to have a car that can hold 4 instead of 2 to have all your friends in there or to be prepared when you aren't single anymore. Besides, that smart car has no trunk space and even single people need some trunk space.

Um why? why do you need trunk space for? The wife is now looking at an 07 MX5 hard top conv.... no back seat... no real trunk to speak of

trunk is for groceries, moving, other misc. things. I put my laptop in it after work as well. And of course, the trunk is there for bodies.... JK
