> _Originally posted by whitey_ > **its cool, i guess its suppost to compete with the crossfire?** not at all… it’s a three-banger, roughly 100 hp, roughly 50mpg, and around $15k (rumoured) “In theory, the Sling Shot would ride on the same rear-wheel drive platform as the Smart Roadster, and feature many of its major components. This is platform sharing at its best.” ---

It gets good gas mileage but is a 2 seater… you can get the same gas mileage out of a hybrid civic, and the car will have practicality… doubt itll ever be put into production though. ---

> _Originally posted by JeffWels_ > **It gets good gas mileage but is a 2 seater… you can get the same gas mileage out of a hybrid civic, and the car will have practicality… doubt itll ever be put into production though.** they already mass-produce the platform in europe…i think this is the kind of car someone needs to build… especially with gas going over $2 a gallon and all the current econocars look like ass. ---

> _Originally posted by whitey_ > **ehhhh waste then… i was to lazy to read the article… if it was a sports car then i would say cool but as an economy car who gives?** decent alternative to an Echo/Scion/Hyundai… there’s an endless supply of aftermarket in europe too… they even have limited production V6 models… ---
