Hey car profile enthusiasts! Because of the snow days we did not produce a February issue so this profile is going to be especially fantastic.  Without further ado I present:  The car of the future…

Brand:  Mercedes

Type of Car: Smart Car

Owner of Car: Mr. O.B. Ford

Exterior color: Currently Black

Interior: Black leather 

Top Speed:  110 mi/hr

Total mileage:    3000 miles

Gas mileage: 46-50 mi/gallon

Wrecks: none

 

Out of the Box: The smart car is not made in the United States; it has to be imported from foreign manufacturers.  Despite its small size it can hold a passenger up to seven feet tall and it has a changeable exterior. That’s right, a changeable exterior which means you can customize the color of your smart car on a day-to-day basis.  How cool is that! Moreover, can you remember the days when you drove around your rechargeable remote control cars? Even though the smart car already gets amazing gas mileage, if you’re feeling a little dangerous you can order a type of smart car that runs on electricity as well as gas. It’s like every person’s childhood dream come true.

Why it made the profile list: The smart car is the car of the future.  With our nation’s faltering economy and unstable gas prices, the smart car enables Americans to live the life of luxury and be environmentally safe.  This car is the model of safe and efficient transportation for America’s economic potential.  Because the smart car has already shown prominence in many European nations should only encourage Americans to promote the smart car as the automobile to help the average citizen fight fluctuating gas prices.  Novelty is always welcomed as genius and that is what the smart car is: a source of genius that will revolutionize the world.
