"What is that?", Where is it from?", "It's so cute!", "Is it hard to drive?" , and "I want one."
Questions a lady in a Smart car asked while we were driving H-1 West. It wasn't afternoon rush hour traffic, thank God, but it is one of those things that happens to us all the time since we got a kei car.
Before you gripe and moan about the lack of tech, the low horsepower, and make fun of its awkward looks, yadda yadda yadda, I have to say those are the very things that makes driving "The Move" so refreshing and a fun adventure.
It has everything you need, all in a teeny packge. It has AC, power windows, power steering, stereo with Apple Play, a rear spoiler (more downforce), and retro "chrome" wheels. It fits four average sized adults, and best of all $20 to fill up too...Winning! I managed to haul 30 boxes of luxury vinyl, not all at once, from the store to home, even the workers got a kick out of seeing me loading it.
It's not car for everyone which is perfect because who really wants to be like everyone else. I feel that newer cars are looking too homogenous, seriously, no dig on Toyota love their cars, but just look at all the Tacomas on the road.
