It also has a rear engine, RWD and even gets 60mpg. How many compact cars with RWD and rear engine are there?

I don't understand why they didn't put the Suzuki engine in a smart coupe or roadster though? This would be a nice Elise cruncher.

You know what, at the current gas prices...I would not mind driving something FUN but that could save gas. I would drive my 8 3-4 days a week drive the FUN but fuel sipper the rest of the week.
