Welcome aboard Jay. You've come to the right place for information.

What do you require in a car? The smart doesn't fill all bills, but I'm sure you already know that.

Welcome to the forum, asylum, smart-knowledge-central...

anyway... Welcome and ask away. Lots and lots of information and history here and lots and lots of members that are willing to reply.

Suggestions: review the newbie info box, then scope out what is happening in your area (Chapters and Regions link to the left); jump into the chatter, and have fun. Don't be bashful. We love variety, especially with a touch of humor.

Your turn..what do you want and what do you expect from your anticipated smart? Be as detailed as you want. A dissertation is not required but at least a few bullet points. Do you have a picture of your ideal smart? Do you want any modifications done to it?

Welcome aboard. As others have said, look around on the forum, and if you can talk to a few owners. For many of us this has proven to be a wonderful car. If I had to do it over again I would get another cabrio. The fun is beyond description. Let the fun begin

Do it, Jay! Medway is close by to me, and I've had a great time of it out here in my smart this past year. I am hunting for snow tires though, but that makes sense for any car it seems. No major problems to report so far after one year of new england living
