There is no way you would catch me driving that on the Highway. I'd buy one just to use around town or in the city though.

Doesn't it make it more obvious that it's a new car when they try to camo it? Kind says "Hey, look at me, I'm new!"

You don't.

there is still a trunk in the back. you rent a U-Haul when you want to carry large items.

and for those of you who don't know anything about this car, it smashed a BMW 5-series like a comet in a crash test, and the chassis came out in one piece. no bending at all.

Wouldn't that be bad? It means the car didn't absorb any of the impact and that the occupant got thrown around hard.

My wife's best friend has one (I'm in Canada). It actually has far more room in it than one might expect. It's got probably 2 feet behind the seats, tons of leg room and there's about 4 inches between my head and the roof (I'm 6'3"). I don't think it's worth the $24k that she paid for it mind you.
