Lyle's contribution to the Achewood cookbook is also lucid not not as refined as his Scottish blog entries.  Too bad - I was hoping for a Diamond Juice-enhanced rant about sfcukin' sanitaco biz got ray all futc n prono shoot guz ca''tn wrk onar kichns n fk when I saw that Lyle wrote one of the forewords.

So how long before an Isetta shows up in the strip just so Chris can draw one?

As far as weird cars go, I've always been fond of Things and Karmann Ghias.

Also wtf?

I dislike big butts and I cannot tell faslehoods. In fact I'll take a tiny non-butt over a big one any day of the week so of the 3 main categories big comes in dead last.

SmartCar!

I loves SmartCars. They fulfil all the needs of the city; they can fit through small gaps, have ejector seats, look awesome, AND its size means people won't try to get lifts with you!

The Post wrote a story about those like 2 years ago claiming they were coming to the US any day now. The funniest part were the ones with the removable panels so you could change the color of your car basically at will.

Do they not sell them in the US yet or did I just misinterpret? They're everywhere in most of Britain's cities, and Pizza Hut delivery boys use them (a sure sign of Speed and Handling). The removable panels are well awesome, I'm not sure but I think custom-made panels are available. If I get one of these, I'm hoping to give it an Achewood makeover.

Maybe a side panel with Ray saying 'You lookin' damn fine ladies'

Nope, they don't sell those [yet].  If you parked one of those on the street around here, you would probably find it tipped over the next morning.

We have them in Canada, they seem to be gaining in popularity in the cities. Then again, the Echo was really popular here too.

Isetta with trailer. This picture is awesome. I expect 300 clowns to come piling out of it.

The Karmann Ghia...oh man I can't begin to tell you how much I love this Volkswagen. It's a beetle with grace and style. It's the predisessor to my current car. And it still looks good after all these years. It's aged well. Yumm.

Smartcars are cool and all but if they ever brought those things over here I'd have to go for a Smart Roadster, grrrrr!

(we need to talk about cars more often here)

Even if I were inclined to have one (not, I have three kids) I can't imagine taking any kind of long trip in it, let alone sharing the road with all the big SUVs and commerical trucks. If you were on a windy bridge and a huge semi went by you at 70mph, wouldn't that little car just blow right off the bridge?

There is a company importing SmartCars from Canada and modifying them to US legal standards. On their site is a blog of a cross-country rally (LA to NY) in SmartCars. Obviously being an advertising stunt it is preferential to the SmartCars but nobody died or got hurled off a bridge.
