I thought this car kinda looked like a squshed Fx (in a way). Then read info on it and died laughing. Its 95hp, woohoo :lol:
Dodge Slingshot--DaimlerChrysler's design guru Trevor Creed, touted the new Dodge Sling Shot, as a "new sports car vision" with genuine Dodge character. The small, edgy 2-seater concept has a 3-cylinder engine with 95-hp. and achieves 45-mpg. As a compact getting excellent mileage, the Sling Shot could lean towards the Mercedes Smart division, as Dodge describes the vehicle as being fun and adventurous while maintaining practicality and affordability. With a 6-speed sequential transmission and styling that suggests Toyota's MR2 Spyder (at least in front), the Sling Shot's sporty appearance is consistent with other new Dodges (think Ram SRT-10 and Dodge Magnum). However, the Sling Shot's lack of cubic inches veers away from other family members. Another significant styling element is the back end, which includes a wrap-around convex rear window juxtaposed with a concave trunk lid. As a result, the rear is vertically flat, but seems to undulate on the way up. The Sling Shot is expected to ride on the same platform as Mercedes' Smart Roadster.
