Especially seeing as you can total one at as little as 9mph. Or rather, some inattentive moron trying to control their hyperactive kids, fiddling with the radio or talking on their cellphone can. The "smart" Roadster is totaled in a 9mph rear-ender. I've seen the crash-test footage.
Not that I'd buy an ordinary smart either. It's got no crumple zones. Most other cars have these for a reason.
