Ok, the first car on the list today is the SMART CAR. Yes, the s
cary little two seater from Europe that you hear about getting stuck in the grill of a bus.Actually the car sits up much higher than I expected. It is not quite as tall as sitting in a minivan, but you do not sit DOWN in the car. It keeps you at almost standing height, more like getting into a chair and not a car.
Anyway, it is adorable, starts about $15,000 and the biggest use they think there will be is people with
Busses or huge RV's who need to drag a little car with them. No more Jeeps, you just open the back of the bus and drive the smart car up into a tiny space just for them.I would not recommend them for Highway driving. Just not a good idea. Someone also said, no on Woodward, Hmm - I don't think Woodward is that bad. Parts of Telegraph are much worse than Woodward.
Anyway, that is the SMART CAR.The last picture is of the Scion line up. I liked the wall of cars. We were looking for a couple specific cars and forgot to stop and take a look at the Scions. It didn't connect to me that it wasn't just a pumped up display of car Art, it was their lineup. They had a few on the ground, but I didn't get to look at any of them. Guess I might go back on Thursday.

I got to drive a Smart car when we visited Germany a few years ago. While I wasn't able to set the Autobahn ablaze, it was great fun, got great mileage, and held a lot of luggage. We may get one in the next few years.
