Greetings!

New to the forum, but look to gain some understanding about the experiences by other owners of the Smart Car.

Got the news that the ship bringing our Passion to the US will arrive on the 30th of this month.

Where did the year go? It certainly didn't seem like forever since laying down the initial $99.

Once you get the little car, I think you will realize it was worth the wait.

Woo Hoo! Another Virginia smart! :woohoo

Where in Virginia are you? I'm in Alexandria/Arlington area. And how did you manage to wait?! I couldn't. I saw the little guys all over and it just made me want mine more, so I adopted.
Now I see them ALL the time. I average about 3 sightings a day AND there are about 4 others in the area I live in. Smarties are taken over NOVA!!!

In the Hampton Roads area, southside near Norfolk....

Very Cool to adopt, for me it was knowing that this one had what I wanted in it - Comfort and Premium Sound packages - and it was the color I wanted!!

Now I see them ALL the time. I average about 3 sightings a day AND there are about 4 others in the area I live in. Smarties are taken over NOVA!!!
I will keep my eyes open when I travel that way - sounds like a SMART move by the residents up there!!!

Keep rolling!!
