Hello American Smarties

[Steff]

Hello to all Smarties in the USA.
Im 38 jears old and live in Frankfurt/Main and drive also a smart.
I have visited the Forum yesterday and have read a lil bit in it.

Youre also crazy about this car like the germans...

But you dont know the first generation of it
Since 1999 the car is driving in Europe and the people that drive the Smart are very specially - like the car ;)

Well make a lot of meetings and cruises (maybe 50 a year), and this year is the 10th annyversary of Smart. The Party will start in August 2008 in Zell am See in Austria. That will become a great event.

We pimp our Smarts like you do it...and some take sometimes a self - buildet - trailer behind it.
Like me......

ill drive the 42 cabrio for 3 years, and now since 2 years im driving a roadster coupe ultimate - one of that 58 pcs were buildet.

I have take a lot of pictures from meetings and pimps, if you want you can watch it on :

Wow - This is great - Thanks for the warm words of friendship. I love all your pics. That trailer is nearly as cute as the car! I didn't even know a smart could tow. Very nice pics of building the kit.

That 10 year anniversary meet in Austria should be crazy! They will do something in North America too if they are really smart
