Scion iQ
965 kg/2,127 lbs
94 hp
$17,090


I like how light it is. Is it a good car. All other cars weigh 4000 pounds
>>
I used to like the scion iq too, but the 2016 smart car sounds a bit better now. I'm mostly attracted to their turning radius, fuel milage, and light weight

You actually think it's lightweight for a car that's only a bit bigger than a washing machine?
A Fiesta, a Punto, a Corsa or a Polo weigh at about a tonne and are way bigger than the iQ.

No. Fiesta is at least 3000 pounds.

>Curb weight 1,041–1,100 kg (2,295–2,425 lb)
Get your shit straight.
>>
Wow it's freakin' 2100~lbs?

That's heavy compared to a hatchback civic.
>>
22:1 power:weight ratio. Swap motor ASAP
>>
>>14005154
not at all


the iQ is straight trash uleh.
>>
Is that a Toyota Aygo? I wonder if I'd even fit into one.
>>
>>14005123
Mother owns a Toyota iQ. Fantastic city car, parking is very easy. Not had any problems with it either.
>>
>>14005172
It's smaller then an Aygo.

Ok I like the Nissan micro the most though. They are race cars too the commercial says so that'll keep my enthusiast side held down.

Is this a good car and better than the iq
>>
Sass quotient
>>
>>14005154
>at least 3000lbs
Holy shit no. You're so wrong. It weighs 2300lbs.

>>14005131
Why does being lightweight itself matter? They're still boring econoboxes, whether they're 1500lbs or 4000lbs.
>>
>>14005208
Unfortunately we only get the 5 door fiesta in the US.

Base models weigh about 2500lbs and the heaviest is the ST which is about 2700
>>
>>14005208
>Why does being lightweight itself matter?
only an american would ask a question like this
>>
>>14005217
Thats still a far cry from "at least 3000"
>>
>>14005193
No no anon the Nissan Leaf is Nissans modern sports car

>>14005223
Yeah, that's how much the focus weighs which is a way bigger car
>>
Engine swap it then take it on the toe gay

>>14005222
Yeah, FOR AN ECONOBOX. Being lightweight doesn't matter because they're boring anyway. They're only light because they're cheap and fuel efficient.
>>
Damn that thing is heavy given how tiny it is. I thought it would be lighter than my 94 Civic hatch that has back seats and great storage space. My car is a tin can though so it's hard to make a modern car lighter than it.

Two short tons comming through.

Have fun being unsafe, unpowerful and unfucking luxurious. Also, practically useless in terrible weather.

Why even live you fucking plebs?
>>
17k for that?
I'd rather get an econo shitbox for the price, and have the extra room
>>
>>14005162
So it weighs just as much as a ferrari f40

Too bad thats where the similarities end
>>
>>14005123
neet

throw an un-neutered hayabusa engine in it
>>
>$17k
that's what I paid for my 2015 altima
>>
>>14005306
If it was between that and the IQ I'd pick that every time
>>
>>14005131
I'm this guy ^
Reporting back that all other ecoboxes are just are good except you arnt considering the turning radius. That is a majorr factor it completly changes your driving decisions.
>>
>>14005208
The driving dynamics are destroyed by weight. Cheap slow cars are fun too if you know how to drive.
>>
>>14005193
As a 2012 model owner, shits fun to drive yo.
Less than 1000kg, with a 106 hp engine.
Enough aftermarket stuff, though though you'll have to import some.
Please, please, PLEASE get the non cukc transmission, CVT sucks mad dick.
>>
>>14006601
Cvt is for snowmobiles not cars ok so don't try to get him to buy one
>>
>>14006626
Do you even reading comprehension?
>>
>>14005123
Ugly, underpowered and fwd?
I think you found a real diamond in the rough op.
>>
Get a Mazda2. Weighs about the same, 100hp of rev-happiness, doesn't look like a robotic butt plug.
