Parking the Smart

Sorry for the title - was gonna attach a pic but lost it.

So does anyone else have anxiety when you park and leave your car.
It always just worries me that since the Smart is so attention getting that people are a little closer than they should be to it. Touching it, Peering into it.

Yes, I know it unique and there is no other car that resembles it - but Smart stands for Swatch Mercedes ART so like any piece of art, look but don't touch!

Thinking about getting one of the alarms from the 90's. "Protected by Viper. Stand Back!"

Does it really? Or are you kidding? Is Swatch involved in it (the watch maker)?

Uhh... yes!

"The project, started by Swiss watch manufacturer Swatch, was nicknamed the "Swatchmobile". The name Smart is an acronym for Swatch Mercedes ART."


Smart (automobile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
