Mine is affectionately known as "the shoe" by myself and a lot of my friends... I think it is fitting.

So the Smart reminds people of a shoe or small boot? If shake it, would that mean you are 'shaking your bootie'?

I say paint a Nike Swoosh on the sides of it and give 'em a reason!

Mine passion is on order, and my current car is an old Geo Metro, which my friend lovingly calls the "pregnant rollerskate"!

I'm thinking about mod'ing a giant wind up thing to mount on the back end of my passion when I get it! That or fabricate a giant penny-in-a-slot to make it look like a penny-racer, like we had in the 80's!

The Chevy Chevette had a model called the Scooter. I think the Geo Metro and the Chevy Chevette was ahead of its time. If they were made today, they might sell better with the econony the way it is and the cost of gas.

I found the site for windup keys for cars.


They had two models.
