Its probably too much money for me to buy it.

At this time.

I predict the iQ will end up like the SmartCar down at my local MB dealer. They have new 08s down there unsold.

The iQ has too big an engine, weighs too much, doesnt get the mpgs and costs too much for me to consider it to be my ideal car.

That would be 800cc, 1500 pounds, 50mpg (in town) and sub $12k.

Anyone remenber the Subaru 360 Van?

+1 on that. also practicality loss is too much in my opinion, Yaris is small, but I can still have my wife, kids and weekly groceries in it at the same time.

Garm's got one of those, I think. Someone on here does. With youtube video's of their 0-50 times haha. I've sat in 360's before and that was enough to kill my comfort levels. maybe the vans would be a little different :)
