New member Houston

JetJazz · 10-18-2007, 06:04 PM

Hi everyone!
Just joined today. I'm in The Woodlands, Texas just north of Houston. I spoke with the nice folks at Mercedes-Benz Houston and they state that they will be the dealership for the Houston area. This dealer is where the "road show" was held.

Hope we can get smarts soon!!

I'm in Paris several times a month and I just want to bring one of those twofors back with me!!! I know that the US models are slightly different but I visited a smart dealership in Paris and the European new models look just like the ones on smartusa.com.

best,
Jerry

Good to have you. I think you'll like this board, everyone seems pretty enthusiastic and congenial.

Welcome, JetJazz!
I'm a recent member myself. You'll find great info here, as well as a nice bunch of people with a love of our favorite vehicle.
Haven't I seen you on some other smart forums as well? Pretty common for us smartophiles! Enjoy!

Yes, that's the dealer. It's near the hotel where I stay. I'll be there again tomorrow. Maybe a test drive???!!

I envy you, we usually spend Sept through Nov there in Buci in the 6th but are unable this year and I really need a "fix"

Very cool. I'm also a new member from Houston.

I just confirmed my order today. Red/Silver Passion Coupe with Black Leather and all the options.

Welcome to the board! Do the European ones have that same acceleration hesitation the ones on the SMARTUSA tour have? What is there cost in USD?
