I don't know these people, they just decided that zippy would make a good backdrop for their picture... Pretty funny !

Came out of a Grociery store once to find a teenager girl having her pic taken by my car.

Also cought the guy who collects money at our recycling center snap a pick of the car one day as I was leaving.

Both with Cell phones

I like how you had the thought to take a picture of someone taking a picture of your smart. Im sure the pink dress had something to do with it.

Now you have "elbow" prints on your window

That's the time to take advantage of the "panic" button
(I've done that on several occasions)

I can't even imagine how much attention you get with your pink prize!

Most of the time, its people driving next to me on the expressway snapping shots with their cellphones. The funniest times are at night when the drivers use their flash. I would be screwed if I happened to look over and get a flash in the face at night while doing 75mph.

Get used to it. I've had pictures taken at 75 on the freeway, stop signs, parking lots, car shows and even in my own drive way. Get a lot of new best friends this way...

I've had the random highway photos but never saw anyone pose in a parking lot! You attract 'em, Suze.

Had plenty of them. Lots posing with the car, quite a few ask to have their pic taken while they sit in it and of course the 75mph interstate pictures. Been a good month since I've caught anyone posing with the car, same for the seated in car pic request. Only been 3 days for a random cell phone pic.

Happens all the time to me -- especially when we park both our Smarts in the same space!

Had a kid take a picture of his buddy while I was in the drive-thru line at the local Dairy Queen. Didn't even buy me a cone or anything.
