Hi folks,
I'm mostly posting to eliminate that annoying notice "our records indicate..."
But now that I'm here, about me:
- Detroit engineer living in Switzerland (10years)
- co-incidently working for manufacturer of Smart Fortwo steering column!! :O)
- driving an '04 Brabus fortwo coupe (since 12/06)
- got most factory options
- and many other features I've installed, or plan to install
- thinking about also buying a Brabus Roadster Coupe
- would like to import both back to the US when I return (not immediately planned but thinking longer term...)
Looking forward to learning and contributing.
Thanks for the nice site and regards to my homeland,
Bob

Hello Bob,
Think carefully about bringing a non-US homologated smart to the US: lots of administrative hurdles. And, as far as we, on the forum, know: the only legitimate roadster has been imported on a temporary basis (short term assignment, has to re-export).
Where are you working (location).
Hello from your home... and welcome!
