Lol yeah, the normal smart fortwo is rwd and mid/rear engined, same with the smart roadster, they made one called the brabus, it had 2 of the smart engines, so it was a bi-turbo. I think they were 75,000 pounds, if anyone watches top gear they would of seen it. Also another engine thats possible is the one from the copen, it came with a 699cc engine i think, also available woth a k3, 1.3, someone correct me if im wrong, if it fits the 0.6, wouldnt that mean the 1.3 would slip into a mighty boy? its a 16v engine too

Yaw, my parents drive smarties. Mum has that horrible green bubble looking thing, and Rob (stepdad) has a roadster, which isn't aywhere near as awful, but still, so tacky.
They think they are the best things ever.

You just need to teach them of the Mightyboy's epic versatility...
Have fun.

Guys, I've done it! Just put a 165hp Honda CBR 1100cc bike motor into my Mightyboy and converted it to rear wheel drive with a two piece tailshaft and all. It's a beast!! Smokes the little 12" pizza cutter tyres even when I'm driving at 80kms/h! Blows everything off the road and man the looks on everyone's faces is priceless. The car owes me $3,500 and 350 labour hours lol
