My First Smart Car

LOVE IT!! Just took a trip to California From Phoenix. Every minute I drove helped understand the Car. Very different than my Lexus IS350. Roomy and relaxing at the same time. Put some nice dark tint on and have my Pioneer double Din touch screen coming soon. Also ordered Cruise Control!! Missed that on my trip.

If there are any other cool suggestions chime in!!

Thanks, Mike

Hi Mike, congrats on your new toy - sounds like a lot of fun. Did you get a coupe or a cabrio and what colour.

I'm looking at buying one soon, and just love hearing how much everyone loves theirs!!! Enjoy.

You have to learn to adapt to the small amount of power, but have the tools to have a very fun tiime driving it. Truly a driver's car, that anyone can drive. You can drive it smoothly if you wish. It just takes practice.
IT IS SOOO much fun to Drive. Love the top down. Was 74 here yesterday, perfect.
The clear roof version would be my second choice. Fabulous, too, if a bit warm. The A.C. works wonderfully well.
Gotta Love It!
Street Legal Go Kart with great looks. Way 2 Fun

Yeah I just ordered one on my trip i was looking for a place for my arm. More storage will be a added bonus too!

Are there any other accessories that go in the place where the cd holder and ashtray go? maybe a coin box or just more storage?

This is great, now we are at the zoo right out of mental hospital...or is it the same thing. Well, I'm rolling my bed away from that polar bear cage because my voices are telling me that they are dangerous at night. Please, enjoy this forum for what it it is worth and...welcome!!! If you have any questions about this asylum please consult one of our senior patient's (Jetfuel).
