This ubiquitous little vehicle of Europe, Canada and Hong Kong has finally made its way to the States! Finally! Remember the Smart car that Sophie drove from The DaVinci Code? So cute!!! The Smart car starts at about $12,000 and just became available for sale in the United States January 2008 and is only offered at two dealerships in the greater Houston area (I'm a run on queen. Get over it). It gets about 40mpg and has an eight gallon tank. There are a lot of pros and cons to the car, mainly the size factor. Texans like their cars GINORMOUS! European men I can see driving this car around. American men? Not so much. But me? Oh VERY MUCH!!!
