If you ever felt that even in Brabus guise, any Smart car is just a boring (and slightly overpriced) way of getting two people around a city, then letting them park nose-first to the pavement, then you are absolutely right.
In order to make something out of a Smart, one needs to think big. Yes, a Hayabusa motorbike engine usually does the trick for one of these, turning it into a donut-hungry drift machine, but a V8 is always better…
Looking through the comments for the YouTube video posted below, there’s clearly a fair chunk of the viewers that felt it was fake. However, the uploader was keen to reply to the sternest of these, promising more videos that will show how the vehicle is all laid out, where the engine is and where the driver sits; apparently, it’s with his or her back pressed against the rear window, but we can’t make it out for certain.
