This diminutive car is owned by Dennis, a lawyer, who has owned about eight of these cars, many of which were crunched by adult-sized cars. Better luck to Dennis for this one. This 1986 model mid-engined car weighs about 2100 lbs, powered by a 1.5 liter engine and must be a blast to drive. Don’t hit it, he’ll sue you.
