There has to be a better implemented design than clip art slapped over polka-dots...

I'd like the Charlotte one, but I'm afraid someone will try shooting at it.

I love how the back makes a Kyubey face by using the lights as eyes.

But wouldn't that encourage people to rear-end you?

In Japan, these cars are being presented under the Mercedes Benz brand, and not under the Smart brand.

That may be true, but why then don't they have the Mercedes star on the cars, rather than the Smart Car emblem?

This is not necessarily the reason why, but for what it is worth, Mercedes Benz only sold 1,214 of these cars in Japan last year.

Yeah I have the same thought, but you know SOMEONE who is a madoka fan will pounce all over these cars.
