Check out this Brabus Maybach 57. It has 2 large plasmas, a quad gprs router for high speed internet, an onboard pc, and an integrated ibm x series. With 640hp and 756 lbft of torque and 186mph top speed, this will be the ultimate mobile office. (the price, i'd guess north of $450,000-$500,000, keeping in mind the base car is near $400,000 before these enhacements)

I can't stand auto trans. Personally, I like the control. Give me a U-Haul truck with auto, fine. But in any car I drive every day, give me a stick.

you wouldnt drive a maybach every day. It would eat too much fuel, and just shouts key me. (id say 8-12 mpg)

Obviously you are not assosciated with the super rich. If you had money, you would go out in no other. You would not just buy one and look at it, you would want to drive it. And, when you live in a nice area, the keying of cars does not happen that often. Driving into a ****y neighbourhood, then, yes. And with all that money, you can afford gas you know.

And why did you call it a Smart Car? This, my friend, is the smart car:

Saw one of these at a car show. Actually, there is also a 62 model that's meant to be a chauffeur-driven limo. The MC at the car show said that mostly American "rappers" or professional athletes are buying these.

Obviously not in my price-range.

Uhh, it is called a Smart Car for a lot of reasons.

The first being it gets 80MPG. Yes, 80.

The second, it is this small because it was designed for the European market where gas is expensive and car parking and roads are small.

I guess I'm in a minority, but I like the Smartcar! 2 things would stop me from buying one:

1) There is just no way I could cram all of the "stuff" a family of four needs into it (I know they are coming out with/already have a four door version, but I really don't like the way that one looks!

2) Having some moron yapping on a cell phone behind me in a Lincoln Navigator would cause severe anxiety problems!

I really like all that's built in, the replaceable color panels, and of course, the gas mileage!

Thank you Steve.

This car was designed for different reasons and thats most likely why most of you dont like it. Instead, try liking it for what it is for.
