Just had my second oil change at 15k miles on my '09, and its running better than ever.

Its a fun car to drive, but in a different, hard-to-explain sort of way.

Are you sure they were talking about a trade? The "customer loyalty" letter I received talked about buying an additional car! [At least that was my take.]

Not sure about 451s but there are a number of Canadians with over 100k miles on their 450s

I just turned over 49K this week on mine. May '08 delivery. I still love this car like the day I bought it. When the time comes, I plan on giving this one to my son, and buying another!

I just figured out that in the 2 years and 3 months since I bought the car, I have saved over $4000 in gas over the SUV it replaced. I have a car that's almost as practical, and just as reliable.

I'd have to go back and read the letter, but I thought they wanted me to trade my 08 in. My wife's next car will be a four door to help with all the car seats we need to transport our growing list of grandchildren. I'll keep my cabrio.

Got 21k miles on my 2008 Smart Fortwo Cabrio I bought in June 2008.
As happy today as the day I got it...

I love it.

Like someone else said here, it's hard to explain.
I'm used to driving a 93 Legend coupe 6speed but this is my little toy.
That I love.
