I remember quite clearly that my son had a car that was the spittin' image of
the Smamborghini back 1985. It was about 2 inches long and had a spring
motor. He kept loosing it under the couch, behind the stereo cabinet, etc.

Lemme tell ya, I'd be very hesitant to buy one of these for basic
transportation. Every morning you might have to spend an hour or so
searching all over the house, crawling around on your hands and knees,
searching in every nook and cranny with a flashlight to try to find it.

Marvinh,

great find, what a hoot! Thanks for sharing. Who makes them, Tonka-Toy?

These things really are not much bigger than a go-cart! Are they really
street legal?

Are they available in EV or hybrid versions yet?

They do look like toys. Far too ridiculous looking to drive on the road.

No, but seriously now...

If you had a NEV (Neighborhood Electric Vehicle) that looked like any of these
little cuties, at least there would be the allusion that, given a long enough
straight-away on a moderate down-slope, you would have a slightly better
than even chance to win a race against the kid on a Big Wheel who lives on
the next block over.

So where is the Smrius? Without that, this thread is highly Off-Topic.

Sorry, I can't take credit for these images. Just passing them along!
