In one word, Eric . . . SCARY!
One of those little buggers lives nearby and I've seen it a few times . . .
Definitely NOT for me the way the crazies around here drive!
Sometimes I get the feeling I'm the SANEST and SMARTEST driver around!

I think the blues one are better looking.......besides, they would good on the Hood of my SSR. when I push them out of the way for going too slow......
Not bad looking. About a week ago, saw a white one with the top down here in town with some type of Real Estate service listed on the side doors.
The driver looks like he was having fun zipping in n’ out of tight parking spaces.
As much as our Rs weigh,you could hang one of those on davits off the back
and have a life boat when you run out of gas or have a flat.Now if they'll just
get the price down to about what a Bernie's spare kit costs.

I put a deposit on one. 99 dollars and ordered one online.
Anticipate delivery about 8 to 12 months. I have the option to get deposit back at any time if I change my mind.
13, 500 plus 160 anti theft and tax. Supposed to get 45 mpg plus. Comes in three styles. I choose the mid range priced one, had reservation about the convertible.
I also owned an Austin America , similar sized vehicle, a blast to drive.

Of course you would be using the Flintstones breaking technique but look at the savings.
Reminds me of the POWER WHEELS that I bought my kids when they were young....actually not much bigger I should pull the POWER WHEELS Corvette out of storage and put a little gas motor in and presto chango

I've seen two of these in my area. They must be fun to drive; well, let me state this - the drivers are always smiling. Maybe it's the fuel savings making them smile, since we are paying around $3.50 locally!

It is the perfect car for commuting and quick trips around town. I sat in one a few weeks ago and was surprised how comfortable I was in it. I am 6'2 and there was plenty of room.
