Hello from San Francisco!

Picked up a Smart about two weeks ago. I was hoping to get a 450 but have been pleasantly surprised with the 451.

So, my Smart is Black/Silver Passion Coupe with heated leather and the convenience package.

It took about a half a day for me to get used to the way the car shifts and like others on the forums I would love to improve the handling of the car. Larger/wider tires and lowered suspension. The works set up sounds like what I'll do as soon as I can afford it...

Congrats and welcome to being a Smart owner in SF! I think you'll find that you got the best car for this city

Cheers
Carl

Yeah, it's been awesome so far... all of those spots that weren't quite parkable (<---new word) are now available.

I just wish I could park perpendicular.
