Smartuki question

What is the mpg for the smartuki Smart car? A 2008 GSXR1000 gets 38 mpg. Just wondering about the smartuki pulling 1750'ish lbs (includes driver weight) around.

Smart Car + Suzuki GSXR = Ultimate Tuned Smart - Smartuki

18-25 MPG which still isnt to bad
but keep in mind that this is no longer a daily driver (I mean it can be) but I'm usually pedal to the floor having fun while driving it

Plus the exhaust is way to loud (under full throttle) for daily commute - you are just asking for a ticket... but it makes a great sunday or couple times a week driver... you can drive with no problem until you go for the usual passing of another car the intake become extremely loud aswell -
I will post some video in the next week or two
