Then the Yaris is the better car.
The ForFour is discontinued anyway.

I play at several golf clubs. 
Should I have two Smarts? One for me and one for my wife.  
You'd be dumb enough for that approach.

Not by Mercedes selling an overpriced tiny car that is subsided by 
normal size cars.
How much is Mercedes giving you to push a car I wouldn't buy if I was 
still a team ager going to school.

China is killing everyones clock on household goods.
Cars from China are coming soon, the Smart is so overpriced and poorly 
equipped it doesn't stand a chance. Imagine sitting by the side of the 
road patching a tire, if you pay extra for the patching kit!
I don't live in the USA.

A local car re****ter got the Smart car right on.
He said: "Great little car for two people with brief cases commuting a 
few inner city miles to the office, but a far better solution for them 
would be to take a bus".
