I wonder if it looks as clean as the tiny crappy CL pictures make it out to be...

Are there any parts available for this thing?

And is it worth getting rid of a 1.6 Miata to pick this thing up?

The other day I saw a hot nerdy chick get out of a Smart car with the plates "AGENT 99". It was pretty cool.

If you are single and you didn't go up ask her to get coffee or a drink with you, I disown you!

I was driving down a busy street at the time :). I suppose could have yelled something out the window, that's pretty much always well received.

For the record, 99 is probably about 145 now.

99 aka Barbara Feldon is 78. It would still be neat to meet her.
