I got it too, what a cute car.  Not sure about the charging station though and where to find it.  Maybe when it needs to be charged it shows up or something.  Oh well, I got the windmill too.  Of course if you have the no bills ever, it is not going to make a difference, but it is still neat.
Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny?

I really like the car but I'll be giving it to teens to drive...the girls that is.  I just can't picture a strapping jock driving that tiny little car. :D  The car is cute but I definitely wouldn't want one in RL.  Where I live, if I ever got hit I'd be picking the car out of my back pocket. ::)

I adore all the plants in this dl.  The wall box with the foliage is fantastic and I've been putting it in all of my houses. ;D

From what I've read over on the EA forum it doesn't sound like the Charging Station does anything, but then I haven't tried it out in my game yet. ???  You have to put the Station on a community lot and the Charging Station can be found under "Community Objects" tab when you go into build/buy on a community lot.  ;)

Here's my teenage boy driving the little car.  This is Golanth Brady, 4th generation from Baby Boomer II.

That car is hilarious! It's like a florescent roller skate.

It's pretty slow, too.  Not much faster (if any) than the Sloppy Jalopy.  And at night, the headlights are 3 flower shapes in the front silver grill part.

You are right about being slow.  I got one and made preferred vehicle and my sim still picked her sports car.  I can see it now, "I am not driving that slow car, will take my own, thank you very much" Just don't live out in the country in Riverview and expect to get anywhere on time, lol.  It is cute though.  The funny thing is, my sisters sim parked hers downtown and there were tons of people looking at it.  How cute.

I did find the docking station and not sure if it actually does anything or not.  It is very large and hard to find a lot to put it on.  Does not do anything when you click on it, not sure if I did something wrong or if it just for show.

Is it true that cannibals don't eat clowns because they taste funny?

I can't even find that futuristic car you all are talking about? Is that only for America?

Here is the link to the EA German web page:
http://de.store.thesims3.com/renault.html

Click on the blue rectangle on the right side of the picture of the car (the Sim car, not the box with the actual car)
