My feelings exactly. FUN TO DRIVE. Down side is wheel damage. Brabus wheels are easy to damage due to low profile tires and user error.
Yes it was my fault; both times!
Doh! I hate that.

Welcome new owner and hope you enjoy yours as much as I do.

I too am a new smartcar owner here too. Picked up a one owner 2008 red cabriolet with 3613 and purchased a 5 year 60,000 mile warranty. Unlike most prob, I bought mine as a toy that replaced my red Mustang convertible that had to be sold a few years to put on a roof. This smartcar will be garage kept, under a cover (wow does the Mustang cover look "SLOPPY" on it) and won't be a winter car.

Anyone know if there are any smartcar clubs?

Given your location, you might check out Pittsburgh Smart Car Club - The Smile Generator

------

Welcome! Just an FYI there are several covers from custom to ready to ship designed for the smart, top to full car coverage; $40 and up.

as for the clubs, appears you might be near Ohio, too. There is an event in OH the first weekend in April.

National smart event is in June in Kansas City and the 2nd Dragon event is in Sept. Come join us. pics are the Gallery from the Dragon event last year.
