Hi from a new Passion owner...

Hi!

We got our 2009 Passion Coupe a couple weeks ago (from Smart Center of Warwick RI) and have been loving every minute of owning it. I'm looking forward to meeting other Smart Car fans and finding some fun things to trick out our car.

Hi from an old Passion owner. Um I mean I've had my Passion over a year, not that I'm old - especially as old as some of the forum members here. Ohh, forget it, WELCOME to the forum - lots of great ideas are born right here by some super smart smart owners!!

"Super smart smart owners"?

Well, anyways, we are quite intelligent, we we don't say so ourselves.

I have had my Passion for about a year now, and love it (check out my gallery to see how much fun I have been having), or go to the following site to see some videos of my local club running some laps at the Lowe's (Charlotte) Motor Speedway.

The car is a blast, and an EXCELLENT conversation starter (even when you don't have the time to stop and chat).

This is is full of...well, information, for one, and some definitely unique characters. Look around, glean what you can, and above all, enjoy your car!

Welcome to the forum! I got my passion coupe over a year ago from the same dealer. Hope you'll join owners as we have a number of rallies during the year. Lots of fun to meet other owners, and we have smart runs at lovely locations.

on the Forum main page, (first page) down at the lower end of the list you will see a section for local and reigional clubs. Check under the one that describes where you are located and most of the local rallys and get-togethers will be posted. Another good feature is the "New Posts" it will show all the newest posts since you last logged on.

What a blast

We've had our Passion for about 2 months now and it's funny how motorcycle riders wave at us. We use our SMART for running around Seattle and it always turns heads..

Bet you LOVE that "Hill Assist" feature, huh?? I was really glad to have it when we were up in Seattle the day of the smartcenter show & shine. MichelleGB....... Welcome to SCOA!! Had my passion coupe for a little over a year, and I still loving driving it and showing it off. I was at a pig roast yesterday for the 4th. and had to show it off to my wife's friend from work who is wanting one! She's wanting a green cabriolet, and it just so happens that I have one that I'm going to GIVE her! Of course, it's made by "Matchbox!" That'll have to do until she gets the real thing!

This little car is definitely a people magnet. We're thinking of printing up info sheets to just hand out whenever we go somewhere...
