I guess I have a thing for rear/mid-engine 2 seat cars!

I have my Smart, also have a 2007 Lotus Exige S and a 1957 BMW Isetta. Not really the most "smart" line up of cars to own but who cares!

Here is some photos of me a few weeks ago at Spring Mountain in Pahrump, NV. I was getting some track time before a race weekend and it just so happens that Edmunds.com was doing a photo shoot on the track of the new M3 and the 135I, they got some good shots of my and e-mailed them to me.





Here is my smart:


And here is my Isetta, its currently being restored, this is a before picture:

Love the Isetta. My sister had one when I was a kid. Enter from the front, correct?

The Isetta looks like the car Steve Urkel use to drive. ...from the tv show "Family Matters."

Urkels car was indeed a BMW (Isetta). Pretty nice one at that.

Nice cars! Would love to see pics of the Isetta post restoration, are you doing anything fun with the paint like this?


We are also in the all rear engine club right now, a fun club at that

Im actually going to have it painted to match my lotus. The smart will get the same treatment after I get a set of spare body panels!

I think you should go with this theme across the board instead
