New car owner

Hi Smart enthusiasts. I am a new Passion Coupe owner in San Diego CA. I purchased the White Coupe last Friday and am loving it. When I was in Europe I drove a Citroen 2CV for several years, but the Smart has it beat. I look forward to seeing more Smarts on the Road. I have never had a car that garnered so much interest (envy?). See you around town!

Welcome "krsmart"! About your 2 chevaux, I wouldn't compare: it has (had?) a softer suspension making it an unbeatable "bad roads" vehicle. Whereas the smart is much stiffer. For the "deuche", you had to anticipate the traffic much more, just to survive. Remember the cars stuck behind you while you tried going up a steep hill! And mechanically, it was much simpler to maintain and repair. I like both.
As for safety, I'll keep my smart any day, especially in today's traffic.
