4 months with my SMART

Love my Smart car but the tranny what is that ? I find sometime it can be dangerous as if you try to accelerate fast at low speed the tranny have no clue which gear to select. I hope someone will come with an update for the software making the shift much faster and precise.

My other car is a ZO6 Corvette, this maybe the reason why I find the transmission so bad, Is I am the only one finding the transmission (shift time) can be improved ?

HRE are making me a set of wheels Series 543


It is not a Sport if you don't turn left and right, have a Motor and 4 wheels.

I hear you on that, myself, I own few fast cars and you get use to having that acceleration, but now I drive my smart more than my Scoobie, Evo, M3, Pupra, or the skyline... I also have the Yaris(wife daily) and the Xb (my daily) that are not powerful but I find a different kind of fun with the Smart.. Im sure down the line there will be a tuned ECU upgrade (that has no controversial gain) that is available to everyone...
