Welcome, gstreetcomic!
Did you visit www.smartusa.com? Then, once you have all your questions lined up, just browse around here, search: and, most likely, you'll find plenty of feedback. Enjoy!

gstreetcomic - Welcome...stay tuned to the forum discussions for about a week, go to the dealer and test drive a smart, look at the smartUSA web site and you should have enough information to decide.

Where are you in NOVA I really like to see the Smartie you own, and more so i have the one burning question. How long did it take for you to get the email reply back to confirm and change whatever you wanted on the car. My email is gstreetcomic@verizon.net This is to HAL9000 by the way.

To all who replied to my posting in the new members section, thank you for all the insight. I am now as some of you already know, am a very happy owner of a Pure coupe in metallic blue and sliver. Love every second in the car, and will even come up with an excuse or two just to go on a drinve in him. BTW I named him Mr. Blue based on a menisis Al Capone type from the first epiosode of Charlies Angels season 2 introducing Kris Monroe, and am working on a good vid for youtube tying the two in one.
