Re: What the hell is a spark anyway's

In case of car trouble you can take this out of your glove box wind it up, get inside, and get where you need to go.
Just don't hit a pothole, a large flying bug or or anything with a mass of more than 50lbs and you'll presumably make it to your destination alive.

Re: What the hell is a spark anyway's
It's another Daewoo, like the Aveo/Optra/Epica
Spark is a Matiz
Aveo is a Lanos
Optra is a Nubira (same as Suzuki Forenza)
Epica is a Leganza (same as Suzuki Verona)
Rebadged Korean crap, really, though courier friends of mine seem to like their Aveos.
You won't see the Spark in the US, it's too small to pass safety and bumper testing.

Re: What the hell is a spark anyway's
What a stupid looking rig! LOL.
I looked on SI today, the engies offered in it are a 0.8L I3 (50 some horses) or a 1.0L I4 (60 some horses). Hang on to your hats folks!

Re: What the hell is a spark anyway's
Maybe you're supposed to buy a pair of them and use them as roller skates?
Wow, that thing it ugly... My snowmobile has more horse power and a larger engine than that thing does... probably wieghs more too
It kind of reminds me of the VW Beetle in the front... maybe this is the answer to bringing back the VW Hippie Vans ?

Re: What the hell is a spark anyway's
My riding lawnmower has more HP than this thing, I bet the mower is even faster than this
At least my lawnmower can actually do something, like cut the grass
If you put more than 2 average sized americans in this car it would probably stall, I can imagine seeing one of these cars trying to climb a hill then flying right back down
