If a new Metro were available nowadays for say $6-7k with a few more safety features, I might consider one (can't be more dangerous than a motorcycle, ehh?)!  Granted, with today's safety and emissions standards, building a clean running, 1700lb car for that price might be nearly impossible. If it were only rated at 40 mpg, I imagine it could be hypermiled well into the 50s. Talk about low cost of ownership! |
