"Petite, If Not Pretty
The tiny Smart Fortwo definitely made a splash when it arrived in the United States last year -- and not just because of its diminutive size. The little car's unique, almost-disproportionate styling is one of its most distinctive traits. About.com's reviewer aptly states, "It's still hard to look at it and think of it as a car. I'd look at all the vehicles parked on my street and think 'Car, car, car, Smart, car, car.'" And speaking of parking, the Fortwo's miniscule shape translates into park-anywhere capabilities. The Smart car's agreeable price and cavernous gas tank could also make you disregard its clownish shape"
I don't think 8.7 gallons has ever been described in such a way....
