Never known anyone who owned one of those SmartCars, Shinko. How well do you like it? To an outsider observer they look like they'd be unsuited any kind of longer drive, but still far better than a motorcycle for getting around town (gets the driver out of the weather, at least).
I don't drive a SmartCar. Here's my driveway: Cadillac Coupé de Ville and a couple of Buick Roadmasters. Tired-looking garage has since been demolished. Not very modern, but modern cars are usually terrible so I'll continue driving older models as long as I can. Wife loves her station wagon.
On another note, I've read that the model truck that Toyota sells in the US is somehow worse than the model they sell internationally. I don't know how much truth there is to it.
