Murcielago. Just say it. Murcielago. It's like drinking chocolate sauce.

@Number_Six: May I say that sitting up high in a car scares the shit out of me? I can't shake the feeling that I'm going to roll if the wind blows a little too fast, or if I take a corner at more than 3 mph. It's also hard to feel superior when you have to hunch your back and do funny contortionist tricks just to see…

"With great power comes great responsibility,"

I believe Speed Racer already did this.

@geistkoenig: True, most people who own one certainly don't need one. But I think that, for a select few people, it could be a really useful car. But, like SUVs, most people who drive one do so for all the wrong reasons.

@BtheD19: Have you seen this car? I'm thinking at least 9.

@layabout inventor of batshit crazy: I'd lose more than a job over that.

@geistkoenig: Smart cars, believe it or not, do have their uses. In cities, they are much more maneuverable than a full sized car, or even many of today's smaller compacts and such. I could especially see the use in one if you lived in the 'burbs of a city and had to commute in for work, or similar situations.…

@rickerbr: You could get the 1.8T in the 2002, although I'm not sure about convertibles. Forget cute women, though. I like seeing 10 year old kids beat the crap out of each other over it.

@MushyHeirloom: Actually, I think they made a 1.8 gas engine (No turbo) at one point. It mentions one in the owner's manual, I think.

@charlie.savas: I hear you, bro. I'll never buy a New Beetle(this one is a loaner from my parents 'til I go off to college), but I'm sure as hell having fun in the one I have.

@LoganSix: When you drive one of those, you ALL win.

@subframespacer: This gives me a good idea. This winter, we need to find several old junkers of various size/weight, a couple street sweeping machines/snow plows, and a very large frozen lake. Car Curling, anyone?

@Wrathernaut: You can get herpes that way.

@Novaload: Ralph Nader is a car-hating Communist. Just sayin'.

@Novaload: I have an add-on for firefox that shows me the alert color. It's yellow.

@Wrathernaut: Is that bad?

@Wrathernaut: Right, and I get that now. And, honestly, it's kind of a reasonable expectation, as most of us do. However, a surprisingly significant amount also take very good care of their cars.

@Grackle: I don't think he anything about verb usage, either.

It's like the Dodge Viper had a 1-night stand with a Velociraptor, then the Velociraptor raised their child on a diet of steroids, PCP, human flesh, and broccoli. Because broccoli does wonders for your testosterone, and who doesn't like eating little trees?
