Some thoughts:

- it’s much tinier in traffic than I would have expected. Probably not helped by the fact that we were both behind giant trucks.

- the owner couldn’t see shit. He was at least very aware of this.

- sounded amazing, even at a 3-20 mph pull. We were all stuck at a light that was out, so I only  heard him accelerate up the left turn lane.

I'm always amazed at how much smaller these are when I see them in person. Especially when I'm sitting up high in my Fiat, it looks about half as tall.

Yeah, I’m seriously not used to feeling like I’m towering over anything except Miatas. Part of me wants to imagine, based on the shopping center they just pulled out of, that they went through the drive-through at Taco Bell and the window was waaaayyyyy higher than the driver :)

I know what you mean about sizing. We get pictures like this:

Then we get real world context:

My other car is a 94 Miata. Trust me, there's a huge difference in seating position between the two. The Fiat 500 is a small car but it's definitely not a short car. I typically park at work next to a VW GTI and a Mercury Marauder, and the Fiat is taller than both of them.

Come on, it’s a blue one. It’s subtle. He’s making his living legally pushing opioids to the masses.

Impeccably dressed probably Chinese businessman, I’d guess mid/late 30s , actually. I’m not really sure what sort of high end jobs draw ridiculously rich executives to Denver.
