Try driving one of those "muscle cars" or whatever in the narrow streets of Europe...

Power is nothing without control. (yes, ripped off from Pirelli, i know)
Bah. Why would I ever get behind the wheel of a gutless Fiat 500 when I could _at_least_ get a Mini Cooper down the same roads? Even better, though, an MR2 or an MGF.

Just because we _haven't_ built cars really suited to Europe, doesn't mean we _can't_. We got _so_ close when we built the Corvair, but it was killed by safety Nazis. And then again with the Fiero, which was killed by the insurance industry.
