THANKS TIM!

Cheers!

Hey Larry. I sent out that torque link but it adds so much vibration and harshness inside the cab it is ridiculous.Use at your own risk.LOL! We will be working on an engine damper kit which should eliminate the movement of the engine and still be reasonable as far as vibration and noise goes. Glad you like the new power.

There is offically 4 SFR turbocharged Smart cars on the road now and counting...........I will be posting some more videos in a little while.There is one video of our Smart and the Smart Madness Smart running around the street and having some fun. At the end of the video it was pure comedy when Shawn did a little e-brake slide into the parking spot.

I have yet to see some real numbers. 0-60mph, 1/4mile, 1/8mile.

I am now officially stuck with this car and trying to make the best of it. Best EBAY offer on a smart is only $11k, and it is a greatly upsetting $6,000 amount of depreciation in less than a year. I think American cars have better numbers.

So let's see what SFR can do with a slow poke of a car for $4000.

So then it'll be a 10K hole?

and less likely to find a buyer due to mods

Not trying to high jack a thread here, but I'm getting really sick of seeing this kind of garbage on this forum. Are we having buyer remorse? Obviously you bought a car without thoroughly researching it to understand it's capabilities. You bought it when the economy was still "OK", and are now all PO'd that you can't get $4000 more than sticker like people were getting last year. I was always told that a car lost 25% of it's value the second you drove it off the lot, and that was in good times. Right now the economy SUCKS, 500,000 people have lost their jobs in the last 6 months, and you want to whine about not getting enough for your car. Give me your address, and I'll send you one of my son's pacifiers! A car is a really bad "investment" anybody will tell you that. Most of us are very happy with our cars and love them for what they were designed to do. We can't help it you expect Corvette performance out of 1.0L and 70hp.

Off my soapbox now, back to our regularly scheduled programming......

All model Smart cars have only depreciated, $3,000 dollar. Petty normal, for any new car off the lot. Go to Edmunds.com, for used car prices. Ebay's not a good judge for car prices. So sorry, your unhappy with your car.
