I got my Smart last weekend

Hi Guys,

I just got my red/black/black passion last weekend. The drive from Riverside to Vegas was just great plus I did get a lot of questions about the car.

Hi, Oregongirl
1st congratulations on your new smart.
2nd Are you familiar with the song "Oregon Girl" by the indie band Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin? They played the song on "The OC about 2 years ago.
Have a listen; it's not the best recording but it'll give you an idea.

Because there hasn't been a response, I wanted to make sure everone knows that she did not get her car from us. We have not had any "used" smarts.

smartbob, the drive from Vegas to Riverside is prox 250 miles or +/- 3 hours depending on traffic. There are sections along the I-15 where there is no (apparent) speed limit...

sorry for the late response! no, i did not get it from the seattle smart center - it was a private party sale. to answer a few questions, it's about 240 miles from seattle to albany. i did get a good feel for how it drives! i paid $18,500 for the car - and I would have paid more. i don't regret a thing! i'll sell it when my 09 comes in. it's so much fun to drive! (although, I wish I had cruise...)

thanks for the tip on the song, danip! i had never heard it. i ended up putting it on my myspace. :P

Congratulations! I did the same thing. I would not have rec'd my Smart until 2009, so I bought a used one 30 minutes from my house.It had 489 miles. I love it. Just turned over 1000 miles. Remy
