That thing is sweet. That thing produced 99 hp and 108 lbs of TQ. That's as much power as my Fit that weighs probably twice as much.

It's like ~900 lbs less than a manual GD3 Fit. The article says that it is shorter than a Smart Fortwo.

I wanna race one to see if my stock, auto GD3 can beat it. lol If I had $5500 I'd buy it and ditch the ugly blue interior for black.
