    And probably safer to get in an accident in on the highway. :wink:

    Ha ha.

    And you'd think so, but don't you believe it. Saw a segment on Top Gear (the video's on YouTube somewhere) where they ran a Smart ForTwo into a concrete barrier at 60 mph. There was nothing left in front of the windshield, but the frame around the passenger area didn't deform at all. I hit a snowbank once at 10 mph in my old Grand Am and couldn't open the driver's door; at 60 they could open and close both doors on the Smart without a problem.

    Try that on your XJ (or any bike, for that matter)...

    as far east as you can get in michigan 43.027407,
    ive seen similar video...

    ive driven a Smart in Germany (my wife is from Denmark and we go there somewhat often) and they are really neat little cars. i wouldnt buy one here unless i could get the diesel...

    funny thing about those cars. engineered by Germans but built in France. go figure...

    I don't know if YouTube still has it, but some time ago I saw a vid where some guys put GSX-R 1000 motors into a couple of Smart cars and smoked up a parking lot. Crazy funny!
