What’s small, round, covered in mirrors and usually moving very slowly? Why, a Smart Electric Drive glittered up like a disco ball, of course.

Completely covered in mirrored glass from roof to hubcaps, the disco Smart even has mirror-finish window glass. In addition to dangerously reflecting sunlight into the windshields of oncoming motorists, pedestrians can use the mirrored surfaces to make sure their mustaches and medallions don’t clash with their wide lapels and abundant chest hair.

Curiously, the Smart has nothing to do with disco. It wasn’t commissioned by the Bee Gees or Tavares, and we know Disco Stu doesn’t advertise. The car is actually a prop for art-rockers Apparatjik, a high-concept supergroup consisting of a-ha’s Magne Furuholmen, Coldplay’s Guy Berryman, Jonas Bjerre of Mew and producer Martin Terefe. The Smart will glitter on the screen in a movie called Pixel City, filmed — of course — in Berlin.

We have no idea how a car covered in shards of glass passes European pedestrian-safety regulations, but assume Euro-NCAP must have a clause for artistic license.
