Smart cars

Have you seen those tiny Smart cars? They are adorable because they look like little toy cars or something. I love them. I desperately want to try driving one because they've got to be fun, I mean just look at them! We saw this one in Vienna with a very appropriate moniker on it for the area of the globe we are currently visiting:

But then we saw the newer and much more sophisticated Smart car. Check it out:

It might look larger to you, but it's not much. Probably it is a bit longer but it is really low to the ground and compact. I still like the other one better because it is so cartoon-esque but this certainly is a step towards "cool" for the Smart car company.

Yo. we saw a smart car on the way to Oregon. Little bugs get smashed flatter,faster. A truck driver wouldn't even see it! And one needs to be part midget. That wasn't art. Period.

I adore the "weiner" smart car. What a great find. I think I would feel like a poser in the other one. It seems to make a statement such as -- "Sure, I'm lowering my carbon emissions, and don't I look hot while I'm doing it?" I am not cool enough to drive a car like that.

I'm with you Nicole. The second one may have more 'cool' but the first one just promises good times...
