About ten years ago I saw these little tiny cars all over Europe. They were the smallest car I've ever seen. Just recently they've been introduced to the United States, although slightly larger than their European counterpart. There's a waiting list of over a year to get one. So today I took a test drive in a Smart car. Thanks to the people at Bergstrom Auto for letting me drive one. The Smart car was surprisingly roomy for a guy my size, it's a 2 seater and the automated manual transmission took some getting used to. You can also change to manual mode and shift the car with the paddle shifters on the steering wheel, but my left foot kept searching for the phantom clutch on the floor as I was shifting.
