I totally saw a Smart ForTwo driving the streets of Chestertown this week! It was the most adorable little thing I’ve seen in recent memory. Not the gorgeous citron color that I fell in love with during European excursions, but still a pleasantly sunny yellow/black combination. It really, really looked SMALL in comparison to the other cars on the road, but only in length. The height of the car was comparable to a Beetle and it didn’t really seem that tiny in our oversized American lanes. Granted, there was no Ford Expenditure bearing down on it at the time, but I thought it looked pretty at home.

Jalopnik shared this fun piece today: Smart Presents Art Project, American Apparel-esque Marketing Strategy. An art project to launch a human-scale car from the other side of the Atlantic? *swoon*
