""I love fast cars and underpowered cars and this car is the epitome of underpowered." Hey Carl, did you forget about the Subaru 360? It's even less of a useful car than the 500. "
I haven't forgotten about that one--it's on the list but I haven't found one yet!

One of my buddies and challenge pro driver had a 360 and a 360 van, very cool. My 600 was downright huge in comparison.
I remember when you could pick up Fiat 500s, 600s and all sorts of micro cars for pennies, and it wasn't all that long ago. It seems there was a guy on every corner going "hey buddy, wanna a Fiat, the first one's free"...
I don't want to give anybody any ideas but I hope my 500 will be the first with the Megasquit EFI and electronic spark ignition. I will be using a true 4 port head. I already have the design for the trigger wheel and the bracket to hold the sensor. I am going to keep it 500cc and just add a more aggressive cam and higher compression. I hope to get a very reasonable mpg with more than enough horsepower. We will see.
