I have been out of ths states for a few years now. How is the smart car doing in the USA? Sales, specs, opinions, milage? ETC...
Really? Cool. Too bad I don't live in Britain. And anyway, it would be fun to do a conversion. Have no idea how they're doing for sales, etc. I have seen a few around, so they are selling. After seeing several on the road, I don't know how safe I'd feel in that tiny thing next to even small cars! Wow, they're small. The good news is that if they get stuck in the snow, you could probably pick it up and carry it out.
