Isetta's slogan, which has helped push production to 100 a day: "Less taxes per year (39 marks) than a city dachshund (60 marks)." Still stranger cars are ready to go on sale. One is the egg-shaped Brütsch, named after Stuttgart Designer Egon Brütsch, which stands barely 3 ft. high, has four forward speeds but no reverse, does 67 miles per gallon.
