Welcome Tom. You'll be having some fun times soon.

We really should start thinking about a Philly-region gathering -- nothing major, maybe just a South Street drive (once they finish the paving) ending up some place on the waterfront, like the Moshulu for drinks and/or dinner.

Thoughts?

I'd absolutely be up for that; I'd prefer in January, as I'll definitely be home from school then.

Also, I had not one but two sightings today, and within 10 minutes of each other!

I was on 252 and saw two bumblebees; one just past the intersection of 252 and 30, and the other a bit further down 252. It was around one twenty this afternoon - any of you??

Enjoying the ride

Hey there,
I finally picked up my white and black Passion a couple days ago. I have been having a lot of fun driving it around. I like the transmission, having grown up with a manual that is my preference I'm used to the gear shifting sequence. paddles or auto-mode it is working out well. I think it is pretty sporty too and am looking forward to post break in driving. I do a lot of driving around the Cheltenham and Willowgrove area, so wave if you see me. I've never been in a car club before and wouldn't mind trying a get together to try the fun factor. I'll keep my eye out for anouncements.

Tom

I should be picking up my smart in February and I was wondering if anyone could recommend a place to get the windows tinted or smoked

That was me (white/black in Swarthmore)! Any Smarty out there interested in forming a procession to the Pink Panther opening? It would be at one of the Regal Theaters, possibly West Chester.

Love the idea of getting a group of Smarts together in Phili, and dining somewhere on South, Columbus, etc. Count me in if something is arranged.
