I think everyone here has missed the point. He asked if any NEW CAR would tow his 18' boat. I'm sure you'd be fine with any current mid sized sedan. Sure, just about anything will pull it, but what happens when it's time to stop it??? I hope that Smart car has trailer braking, otherwise that has to be the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Really hope that's just for going down the street, or a joke pic.
