[Vwdiesel] Smart cars

[William J Toensing]

Thank you for your reply & your link to Smart Car Canada. Click on it for some interesting info. It gets 4.2 liters per 100 K  or 1.196 gallons for 62 miles (which equals 100K) which equals 51.839 MPG. Only the diesel engine is sold. The cheapest list price is under $17,000 Canadian. Don't have time to do the math now & dont know the current Canadian exchange rete but I understand Canadian prices include a 15% federal sales tax or GST. So take 15% off the Canadian price & convert to U.S. dollars to get the price. They say you can drive the Smart into the USA but for importing it into the USA, contact USA customs. I think I would rather have a VW TDI.
