"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

It goes the way of the Ferrari with paddle shifters.
Or ala Smart Car: The Smart ForTwo has been in the news quite a bit lately, and there's been some confusion about the vehicle's "automated manual transmission." To be clear, the Smart is not a typical automatic, even though it can be driven like an automatic. On the other hand, you can shift gears manually, even though it has no clutch.

I had a gray market Smart Car. It reminded me of an old 36 hp Volkswagen.

The Smart Cars are appealing in a weird sort of way.  Like the hard boiled egg of the road.
