Going Up?

Check out these cheeky little monkeys. Kewl! I like the Buggy, the CrossUp and the GT the bestest.

As the small car guy at Cheers and Gears, all I can say is that I am in utter lust...

The buggy is sort of interesting, but I just can't take a car named "Up" seriously.

I'm guessing you won't be making Up yours, then.

They seem pretty well designed...kind of a modern Beetle in the 'people's car' sense of the old Beetle. The buggy looks fun. The original Up! prototype a few years ago was rear engined, BTW.

Even in concept version they couldn't give the "GT" more hp? Have they said a weight on these? Cuz the Saturn S-Series weighs only ~2400lbs, and the single cam variants came with very similar hp numbers - early ones were 85hp, later ones 100hp. My wife has an SC1 (SOHC), and I can tell you that the letters "GT" wouldn't belong anywhere on it. These cars better be uber light.

The Up! has a listed curb weight of 2048lbs.
