She also has to make it available for trade-days etc once per quarter, four days per year.

Driving a Smart car is punishment, not a privilege. Perhaps if you were poor, then it is transportation - but barely. Give me a Toyota Echo even. That is all I say for the Smart car because it is too small compared to the average car. I confess that I have not driven it but to some it may be fuel economy heaven. Size matters, especially in a n accident. Also I would hazard a guess that a Smart car is pricey to maintain. I have hijacked this thread into obscurity. Where was I - ah Camry sigh sigh
