considering how hard he was pushing it - it seemed to shift rather quickly and no indication in the video of the "nose dive"

The tan vinyl on the euro models looks so 70's - reminds me of my Sonnett.

Agree on the tan color - looked really out of place. Liked the exhaust sound, though. Pretty nice for a 3 cyl engine.

Good find. I agree that the shifting doesn't look that bad, and I also like the exhaust sound.

Thanks for posting that.

Cheers!

Yes, it is that much fun!

It takes some getting used to but you sure can scoot around town. I have two major complaints about my smart. 1. I have to leave early to add time for people asking questions. 2. This thing is a ticket waiting to happen. Speed is deceiving.watch your speedometer.

Hmm... that appears to be a limited one edition... nice!

I love the sound of this thing at midrange, and when it is being worked out.
