<![CDATA[Smart car]]>Matt and i saw a smart car a couple times on saturday, once in the bowler parking lot, and once driving west bound on 13th ave by Taco Johns. It had SD plates, anyone else see it, or know who owns it? I thought these werent legal in the US yet.

OH NO! me sorry masta, me sorry, me never cross ya again masta. all hail the great RacingMan24! Who in his infinite knowledge has owned me and my puny post! Fit, Yaris, xA, Aveo, 206, and any other god damn little hatch thingy i can find has 4 lug, so i just thought maybe it was a different variation of the smart car or something, but ill consult you before i ever post again, sorry.

That's more like it. 😉 I expect a PM every time you post. 😛

I wasn't really trying to bust your balls. Just attempting to dispell any rumors as to there quality, or crash ability, as I work for Smart's parent company. And you are very correct, it's not either one of the cars I listed, after you said something, I looked up pics on all sorts of little cars, but still can't determine exactly what it is.

But again, never ment to be a personal attact against you. I apologize if you perceived it that way.

Ok, maybe you're not hearing me. The Smart Car only has 3 lug nuts per wheel. The car in question in the pic has 5 per wheel. Therefore.....not a smart car. Not to mention Smart Cars do not have taillights like that.

I didn't say it WAS a Fit or Yaris, I said one of those two or something of the like, which means it could be a few other cars as well. It could also be an xA. I don't know.

but it all goes back to what I said originally, you go head on with a truck, it's lights out, no matter what you're in.

And on a side note. I don't care what you're in, but when you come head to head with a Semi....it's lights out.
