but yah, if that came to the US with a 1L turbo at 2500lbs and some taffyapple sat in it with a gross weight of ~3000lbs, then yah, the car will just snap in half...

yah, lets just hope taffyapples dont ruin it for us like they did with most cars out there today.

i prefer to have small cars.

Mr.kenchan... when car manufactures see how those taffyapple can fit into a smart car....

they believe anything is possible...

yah, i personally dont care for those golfcarts either.

i like my cars that fit me like a glove so that it's like a part of my body.

honda was known for making cars like that until about the mid-2000's... and when S2000's were gone, not too many cars like that at all.

Yahoo!

Not bad. But your right it most likely will not make it over to North America.

it one of those cars that I have a soft spot for. I want one very bad, but feel it will not be practical enough. Im looking at the 2014 Mazda 3 (6mt) or Mazda 6 (6 mt) as potential next cars.

Mini cooper S and Fiat 500 abarth both fell out of the possibilities because I don't need 3 coupes. Though both are

yah, i had a cooper-s long time ago. was definitely a fun car to own. it had terrible electronic problems though, especially the a/c.

i hear the new mazda's are looking a lot better then that silly

(grin).

i was looking at the abarth seriously, but considering my fit can do double duty and be pretty fun to drive, i decided to get another coupe next.
