Ok... just looking through a Road & Track magazine while waiting at the drug store. They claim an all new fortwo for 2011. Seems awfully soon???

What does the "equal" sign mean?

Howdy
I have seen the gold "equal" sign on blue background (your avatar) on several vehicles.
What is it for? I am guessing it is some kind of organization, but have not been able to find out details?

It's for the Human Rights Campaign - a group working for equal LGBT rights.

It does Willy, considering how long the 450 production run was. Perhaps they meant an all-new model? Like the ED?

I have heard we will either get a New Blue Panel, or a Green Panel. (Rumors from my Smart center managers)

Thanks for the info - I've been out of town and away from my computer. I'll keep my fingers crossed on some new colors. Green would be nice, so would purple.

The yellow equal sign is for the Human Rights Campaign, as stated above by mdfortwoguy. I have it on the back of both my vehicles. For more info, go to www.hrc.org

Is that all they said...something all new in 2011, lol. I hope they come out with something all new. I love my Smart cars, but I'm ready for a better Smart. I read in one of those 2010 model review magazines (forget which one) that said nothing would be new in 2010 for the Smart.

P.S. Thumbs up on your Avatar! I'm on a 767 plane right now (American has WIFI) flying out to San Francisco.

If I remember correctly, it said that there would be an all new fortwo introduced in 2011. That just seems inaccurate to me. The original fortwo lasted for 10 years before we got the current one. I can't imagine they'd replace it this soon.
