Good info - thanks! I like the car cover as ours will probably sit outside. I've contacted Covercraft about a cover but they don't have anything yet and will have to wait for the US cars to arrive.

Hoping they are developing a tow bar for all those motorhomes out there wanting to be smart as well. ;)

i wont get to park inside the garage (unless i can convince my better half that there is an advantage parking her car outside), and they always leave my street for last when it comes to snow plowing.

cape-style car cover and Snow chains.

both are a pain frought with extra effort.

Here's the complete 2007 Accessory Brochure for the 451: 2007 Smart Accessories

Unfortuntely, it's in German, but if you have specific questions, I can interpret for you.

Check out the Brabus suspension and wheel spacers. If they aren't immediately available in the US, we can organize a group buy on this forum and get them shipped over here ourselves.

Optional wheels anyone?

I hope that the rear quarter panels can be replaced with optional wider fenders for the optional wheels and tires!

Wheel spacers are used to increase the track (width of the car as measured from the centerlines of the wheels). The Brabus spacers look like they are 1/2-1 centimeter in thickness and would thus increase the track by 1-2 cm. Increases stability and permits the use of wider rims without the risk of inside tire rub.
