Hello from Northeastern PA

Have had my Passion coupe for one week and I'm lovin' it. I've had more fun with this car. It's black with silver with black leather interior. Put my reservation in on May 3, 2008 and ended up adopting an orphan 17 days later. It gets a lot of attention. It takes longer to go to the grocery store, the drug store, the bank, wherever. Everybody wants to know more about it.

Am happy to have found this forum

Bobbi

Welcome! Be sure to add yourself to the members map (if there's any room left) and post some photos of your new smart when you can.

Hello from Wilkes Barre. Just picked up my pure this past Saturday. I had my first good tickle today driving through the metropolis of Swoyersville. Traffic was down to one lane at a road construction site. Opposing traffic was stopped and my direction was advancing..... until the flagman sitting on a five gallon bucket saw my smart. He jumped up. changed the "slow" sign to "stop, then waved me forward to ask the usual "what is it? who makes it?" questions. The car really stops traffic....

I live in Scranton. Did you get your Smart from Devon? I'm really lovin' this car. It got it's picture taken at the gas station yesterday by another customer who remarked it was the cutest thing in the world.

Welcome from Bucks County, PA

To answer Jeepster55 - State college is a beautiful place, "happy valley". I as well have a son at PSU!

I live about 4 hours east of State college. Burbs of Philly.

I have gotten my Smarty in April and my boss was lucky to get one in March. We both got them from the Devon, PA dealership. The people there were fantastic.

We both got orphans. His is back with silver. The interior was red. He even went so far as to tint his window. He could not stand all the people looking at him.

I have silver on silver. Not my favorite color, but does that really matter? The best feature is the black leather seats that are heated. I also have the 6 CD's which I have never used.

I swear, I go no where, that someone is not asking me about the car. I hand out business cards from the dealership. Humm, maybe we could work on commissions?

My vanity plates reads: SMRTGAL. I wanted smatypants too many letters.So if you see me on the highway, give a wave.

I just saw a yellow and black on the other day headed north on 611 - I was wondering who that "smart" fellow was??

Good chatting.

Enjoy your smarty,

Denise
