Does your smart still get looks/questions? - Smart Car of America Forums : Smart Car Forum

Just wondering if the smart still creates the buzz/stares/questions that they did when they first came out. Do people still ask questions at the gas station, etc, or is it kind of old news?

I still see plenty of folks pointing at the car as I go around town

I don't get a lot of direct questions but I expect that to pick up again as the weather is getting nicer and we are not all running for a warm shelter.

I never really got that many questions. I still - on occasion - get some looks and people pointing. I had mine for just over 2 years. I still like driving mine. It is a lot of fun.

Not as much as it used to. I'm thinking of adding orange flames on the sides. Yep, that should do it.

Decreased a little over the past year...and the stack of information cards are lasting longer.

Could also be all I do is work and come home and shop once a month. So I am also not out as much as I was last year.

Not as many as at first, but there are still stares, questions, and thumbs up. My wife recently commented that we hadn't had any people hanging out of their vehicles to look lately, but then, that same day, I had a guy put down his window and give me a thumbs up on the Interstate and someone motioned for me to roll down my passenger window so they could ask about the car at a stoplight. So, it still happens!
