How about "My car is slower than yours is..."? I own a 1970 Subaru 360 (360cc, 2 cyl, two-cycle) and I doubt that anyone out there has anything slower, unless there are any BMW Isetta owners out there. (As we all know, the Isetta is the only decent car BMW ever made, their current models are junk.) How about it, let't hear from the owners of 360's, Isettas, Goggomobiles, Messerschmitts (sp?), and other fine machines. Let's show these multi-cylinder snobs what *real* cars are like!
