The 2008 Smart Fortwo is a very competent, fun-to-drive city car, not just a novelty, but with so many caveats, most people would be best served by a hybrid or larger small car. It has very little cargo room, has extreme susceptibility to crosswinds on the freeway, and can get very costly despite its low base price. TheCarConnection.com rates the smart fortwo at 6, with a high of 8 for safety and a low of 4 for comfort and quality.
