I don't know if said anything before but where I work we get to see the odd cars that are not from around here or so special that it's rare to see one. I've seen this car before & this time I ran out with my Digital camera & took these pic's Enjoy !

BTW, Guess what car it really is. I asked. I'll post what it is later on.

Notice the Quebec rear plate over the Euro plate.
Don't know what one that is but I saw some &quot;smartcars&quot; at the autoport in Halifax about 2 weeks ago and now there's one on the road around here as well.

VW POLO?
Definitely not a Polo.. they look more like a mini-Golf than anything:

That's a pretty radical design though.
its a smart car then
it's not a smart car at all
But here's a hint it's got the word Spyder in it's name
Half a mitsu eclipse
Fiat ?
Remember it's not the size that counts
it's the size of the nut behind the wheel !
:P
Lots of smarts around here. The Mercedes HQ is in Leaside (Eglington east of Laird) and the school for the mechanics is part of it.

that could explain why I see smarts in that area all the time....
Alfa Romeo somethin &lt;_&lt;
Spent a while searching.....

Not Fiat....
Not VW....
Not Vauxhall....
Not Alfa Romeo....
Not Renault....
Not Volvo....
Not Saab....
Not Opel....
Not Skoda....

From what I can find on the internet.... I am so curious as to what that is.... any more hints?
I think it's a Citroen but not 100% sure.... is that it? Got the same body shape but assuming it's an older model, not brand new. Not much other car companies that it can be....????
mg?
Come on dood, make with the answer already.
Wish our European members were reading this post, they would tell us the name faster than you can think. BTW, I was watching speed channel, and a pic of that car flashed by on the screen really fast durring the start of a TV show. Damn.
What the hell car is that already? Are you sure it's european? Not Japanese or something like that?
Fiat is Correct &amp; Penwraith was right.

It's a 2002 Fiat Spyder Roadster Touring Edition in plan english. It was imported last year to Canada by it current owner, &amp; has been in a few shows, as well as in a few t.v. spots on several car shows here in Canada &amp; the U.S.

The Car is plated with Finland plates if I remember correctly.
