Hey, isn't that TraySeeLea? Overdid the Jenny Craig thing a little bit. Seriously folks . . . the Spark looks like a more intelligent choice than the rear engine (actually under the floor in the rear) Smart Car I saw for the first time at the auto show. Better mileage too.

I should have said comments on the car. I have to admit, the girls were the first thing I looked at too.

Should have kept it named the Beat. Spark sounds ridiculous. And why are the headlights bigger than the engine?

1.0L or 1.2L? I thought the 1.8L in the Vibes was a little small.

FAILWhy do all eco friendly pansy cars have to look so stupid? If they SIMPLY INCREASED THE WHEEL WELL AND WHEEL SIZE it would be a good looking little car...but just like all other stupid designs, they are going for the "awww, it's so ugly it's cute" look with it's stupid tiny little 12inch rims and 5 foot high roof line. RAWR! Someone needs to show these people how to design a good looking car while retaining it's intended functionality which apparently they cannot figure out. If they were to use the new Saturn Astra as a model...that car is PERFECTLY proportioned IMO

I finally got around to looking at all of the pics, it's cute enough. But the interior design has one fatal flaw...
http://www.autoblog.com/photos...94185/ ... ..94195/So, they get the dash designed then say "oh no we forgot the gauge cluster!" In a rush, they stuck something there, likely with double-sided tape. This gives roughly the same the effect as one gets when they do a crappy job at sticking a satellite radio tuner to the dash. I like the notion of one analog gauge for the speedo and the rest apparently are digital, that would look neat if it were, um, integrated in the dash a lil' better. And I wonder if the headlights contain the front end's crumple zones since they extend so far rearward?

The good thing about lights that large would be if someone ever runs into you and says they didn't see you coming you know they're full of crap... Unless you had some bulbs out. lol

good luck doing a retro on those!! You'd have to take it to a pizzaria to use their over to get those headlamps open!!

looks sorta like the concept chevy WTCC knock off.. Im all for high mpg cars and that well is like a smart car competitor but man thats a tiny engine to only get 40mpg when much bigger 4 bangers can achieve that. I guess it would depend on if it was city driving 40mpg..be very good then if it was well under $20k.

There is probably a compartment under the dash that you could reach into and change the bulbs without having to stop, lol.

I guess I should clarify what the defintion of "it" was. I meant the speedometer goes to 120, not necessariy the vehicle in which it is installed.. LOL!
