Driving my Silver with Black Tridion Passion

Took delivery from Loeber Smart Center yesterday, and have racked up 200 miles already. Yes I did get a little sleep. Getting 35mpg in mixed driving.

All systems A-OK. Everyone says it's cute. You forget it's size as you drive. Plenty of pickup to run with the herd. Handles great.

Oh, and my wife digs it.

I expected to be dissapointed, but this car does not do that, at least for me.
I was hoping it would be this good!

Bravo SMART and thanks to Penske for getting this car to the USA.
It seems like a game changer.

Jay,

which dealer did you get it from? Lincolnwood or Lake Bluff? any doc fees? Any surprises?

I'm in Schaumburg, IL, not sure which dealer I'll get.

Thanks,
Dami

I ordered the red, but when I saw the silver/black at the dealership, I thought.....hmmm....that is really pretty.

Best to you. Enjoy

If you are in Schaumburg, IL, I'd guess you would go to Loeber in Lincolnwood.

I posted a photo in the members Gallery "1st Smart in Itasca"
