    I've already seen one on the road. It was on either I-75 or I-95, somewhere near Orlando, Florida.

    they are apparently great little cars with excellent fuel mileage.
    it's reported that from vancouver, B.C. canada to seattle, washington - fuel cost to/from is only C$20! vancouver/seattle roundtrip is a good 500kms. at least.

    very expensive car to buy though. starts around C$16k for base model and over C$30k for a loaded convertible model.

    they are aparently alot safer than most people would suspect too... they have a full steel cage construction.. if anything.. you would just get knocked over and roll a few times, but the cage would protect you

    I saw a review of the smart cityrover on TopGear. the thing had no body roll because it couldn't turn.. funniest ish ever.. they took it around a curve on their test track and it went in a straight line right off the track.. no control at all.
