Welcome to 2005. LOL

Check out the interiors on those little scoot-machines. Totally gutted to fit the 'Busa engine/transmission.
If I tripled the HP in my vehicle, I'd smoke Ferrari's all day long too. :grin:

Fun fact of the day: The Smart car only makes 70 ft.lbs. of torque.
Each of my lug nuts requires 110 ft.lbs.

Cool little project, but pretty much worthless.

 

now....maybe im wrong but...if you were to drop a motorcycle motor in there...would you get better gas mileage then the smart car engine? i thought they only get like 40mpg haha

 

i saw 2 of those little fuckers in alabama yesterday.

 

Pretty cool,that short wheel base bothers me a bit safty wise.Pretty cool just the same though..

 

Even if you gave me one(Smart Car that is) I still wouldn't drive it. Fucking things are ugly as HELL!!!!

 

get hit in one and die....though that hayabusa engine sound is slick as hell.

 

That is awesome. Quote of the week!!

 

just ran across one of these little buggers yesterday in my neighborhood....... i had to slow down to see if it was for real!!! when i goosed the throttle, i could swear the little bucket got blown off line!!! lol

 

I hate those cars lol...Saw an old lady getting out of one at the bank today and couldn't help wondering what she was thinking when she bought one. It didn't have the Busa motor in it though.

 

Why didn't they show the end of the race . that fricking car probably had a speed wobble worse than my steel wheeled roller skates on asphalt...

 

those things are garbage... if you get one with AC and a radio, the price is around 12,000$ and they only get 40mpg.. i would expect out of something THAT small, it would get at least 55mpg or more..

isn't even very cost effective when ya think about it..

only seats two, looks like a turd, can't put more then two grocery bags in it.

you could buy a base model hyundai accent for 12,000$ with AC, radio, seat 4, put a couple bodies in the trunk and still get 36mpg.

i think people buy them because they are a novelty and they think that they get some uber economical mileage.

 

I definitely think after they buy one, they have the biggest buyers' remorse possible. Like, "I feel like killing myself" buyers' remorse lol.
