getting my new Brabus today...in the rain

Thanks to this forum, I made the decision to purchase a silver Brabus orphan, just waiting for an enthusiastic owner. I will have to drive it 50 miles home, with the threat of thunderstorms on the way, but I'm sure it can handle it.

Last night, I found if I park my VW R32 up to the very front of my deep garage, the smart will (just barely) squeeze behind it. At least that is what the tape measure suggests.

I hope all goes well during the delivery process, and thanks again for this informative forum.

See you fellow smart owners in NE Ohio!

Welcome!! When I brought my black Brabus coupe home on May 20th, it was during one of the worst storms in recent Florida history. Over eleven inches of rain in one afternoon. The little car did just fine, no problems at all. Enjoy your new Brabus.
