    Ugly

    In a word YES.

    It wasn't that many years back (well maybe 10-15 years) that the cognoscenti
    Agonized over the new design director's arse design on the new 7 series.
    In retrospect that was a tempest in the teapot compared to this beast.
    Dare to be different? If you changed the badge to something out of the GM roster, it would be a laughing stock.
    Compared to the Prius? Put the optional 17's on it, it is pared down , sporty elegance Compared to this baroque hipster toad.
    Oh and to add insult to injury, it will only set you back close to 50K.

          Its ugly...but I would daily one. Heck better than a prius and cheaper than a tesla. Black and a little lower would be the way I would go, that orange is positively hideous.

            The Aztec was secretly loved by many people. BMW is just following the Aztec's lead.

              I'm not sold on the looks but it really bears no resemblance to the Aztec.

                Love them. Look - it's all about maximum interior volume and a compact footprint, so it's got to work the proportions it has. You get some of the same styling language as the i8 in a compact every day vehicle, and my favorite interior currently on offer. That interior - it's totally new and fresh with all these materials you don't normally find in cars.
                I test drove one for fun. It's quick, and it feels damn airy on the inside. It's not for me, cos it's also tall, and the seating position is high, but it's not really for us anyway, and I really appreciate it. I think they look pretty badass in black...

                  The only thing I dislike is the skinny tires, it's hard to take it seriously. Besides that and the price tag they are sweet

                    I want one pretty bad! I fell in love when I saw one last summer, it was silver with the blue accents.

                    Just like the Isetta, it is so goofy looking it works.

                          Very ugly. Seen a few of them around. New, trendy, expensive stuff seems to be common in palm beach county, especially in west palm beach. When smart cars were new, as in first making their appearances in the states, those infernal little shitboxes were all over the place there.

                            I have driven them, I like them alot. I dont think they look half bad either. Different in a good way.

                              You owe it to yourself to drive one. It is incredibly fun and handles very well. Not to mention having hatchback practicality.

                              Plus it's a CFRP monocoque car at mid-$40K MSRP.. no other car exists like that today. If I could afford one, I'd have one.

                                In all honesty I really think the nissan juke is a cool car. And I like the i3
