They are an addiction. Great little cars and a lot of fun to drive. And for no additional cost you get this forum which can be worth exactly what you paid for it.
Where did you get those numbers?
60,000 in the States and there might be 6 in Canada? I have had that many in my driveway with my one in the garage at a GTG at my house.
20,000 in Europe?
What about the rest of the world.

I know the US is the centre of the universe but give us a break here in the third world.

PS
I have decided to spell the correct way in all my posts. LOL
