so I just found out about the worlds cheapest car today, the "Tata Nano".
for only about 2k, you get a lil 10 ft car with:
-no P/S (prob wouldn't even need it with 2 inch wide tires lmao)
-no airbags (optional)
-no A/C (optional)
-no ABS
-50 MPG
-65 MPH top speed
-a motor that has about 1/4 the displacement of an F23 (it MUST be a single cyl)

I guess its only over in india right now but they plan on making a US version within the next 3 years. I'm thinking I just might have to trade my accord in for one..... haha YA RIIIIGHT. it looks like a prius and a smartcar got it on and had a retarded baby.

I heard about this a while back. It'd be great if you commute a lot.

I remember reading about this in the local paper months ago. Should be interesting. Seems like to me its the tricycle (with training wheels) of cars so to speak.

Actually, Tata owns Jaguar and Land Rover. The car is made for a specific market and I am sure it appeals to them. Also it is a car that will be more affordable to those in that market. Can't really knock it, just don't think it would do well in this market.
In India, you might not really need anything more. Maybe not even a 6th gen.

Honda didn't need a bailout to restructure their marketing technique like these US companies they needed it to provide more financing offers at their dealerships
