...What the hell are you talking about? The same price as a scooter? I bought one recently for SEVENTY NINE DOLLARS. It runs about 20 miles per charge, but at that price, how could you complain?

And then again, my friend got a *very* nice motorcycle recently for about 2 grand. Where do you come up with your terrible prices?

A scooter, as in a Vespa, not those tiny little glorified skateboards with handles. Something with an actual engine...

The Smart cars aren't made for teenagers - but for commuters in an urban area, like me, they're just about the perfect thing, combining good mileage, tiny size [more parking spots!] and an ENCLOSED SPACE. It's pretty much the same as a Vespa - but I won't freeze my arse off trying to keep it going in January.

I admit, I wish the real Fortwo cost the same as the knockoff, though.
