World's first cool smart car discovered. I might opt for different wheels myself, but there's enough good stuff here.

given the colour it would need really good air conditioning on a warm day.
Can't guess source of the cab/ body, but the air cooled flat four VW is clear. The out sized tires give stability thru width, otherwise impractical. License plate not quite visble, but Circle K convenience store says western US.
Running boards/fenders might cool. Don't round corners too fast--looks a little top-heavy
