sooooooo sweeet!!!
i rode in a smart car yesterday. it ruled.
R
:headbang:
I can see one of these modded in a movie llike the Mini in the Itailian Job, then everyone wanting one. Then a Hummer running one over and then everyone selling them.
I love the stupid comments like:
“shit if they them LIKE THAT THEN US AMERICANS WOULD WANT THEM!!!”
First learn English, second not everyone in America wants an car that handles on rails and goes really fast. People would be buying Ariel Atoms, Lotus, MR2 and Honda hatches with K20s.
You tube is blocked from work, is this the one?
I WOULD ROCK THAT THING.
I want to know more about that car.
Any more info?

so does this mod make it the same size as a normal car
Created by Greek rally champion Stefan Attart, the head-turning Smart combines the body shell of the existing Fortwo with the industrial-grade four-wheel-drive underpinnings of parent company Mercedes-Benz’s Unimog 406. The result? A towering two-seat monster truck dubbed the Forfun2.
It is driven by 3 – cylinders suprex turbo engine placed in the back together with air cooler. Its output is 54 kW (the most efficient version) at 5200 rpm. Nothing big, but to the city satisfactory enough. The consumption is from 4.6 to 6.5 litres for 100 km.
Does a name Stephanos Attard (46) say something to you? Maybe yes, but for the others who do not know, he is a Greek racer and a champion of a serial 4x4 Rally Races. It was him who striked upon an idea to creat a monster truck in a cloth Smart. Quite crazy idea, isn´t it? But as you can see, not impossible.
It did not take much time and with the help of Daimler Chrysler representation he created the unique car which hides in itself features of a real off-road car and to a certain extent features of a comfort private car.
As the basics for this wonder became Smart ForTwo which was combined with still living Unimog 406.
The complete chassis was used together with a complete mechanics and wheels with the diameter 1.4 metres, just from the Unimog.
The main drive unit comes also from Unimog 406 and it is 5.7 litres turbodiesel with the output 84 hp (61 kW). There is an old 6 speed manual gear box which consists of two grades for the rear drive.
We are used to the most possible lowering of a car as to the tuning. But in this case it is just vice-versa. This Smart rides 65 cm above the ground (between the chassis and the ground) whereby it is 3.7 metres height, what is approximately 2.2 metres more than the classic Smart ForTwo.
smart cars rock
