I almost hit a tiny dog with a tiny car

It's now been 402 days since I reserved my Black/Silver/leather Passion but until today I had only driven a Smart 1 time and that was during a Wisconsin snow storm..So, today I finally got the itch to go and give it a little better test drive. I got to go out in a Silver/Silver Passion and this time I used the paddle shifters and it was a blast. It was like driving around a little go-cart! As I was driving down a suburban street a tiny little dog ran out on road in front of the Smart, when it's owner ran out to rescue him I opened the window and said " wow, that's a little dog, what kind is it?" (I guess I beat her to it) she started laughing and took the dog to safety.

Anyway, I'm still waiting and now I am super excited because the car drove amazing better than my first time out and me being a 20+ year non manual driver I was a bit concerned with the transmission but i must report it was fun and the car was pretty damn quick.

I also had the chance to hang out in the garage and talk to the mechanic as he was replacing white panels with yellow panels for a new owner, the car looked so cool with all the panels off, reminded me of when I was a kid building a model. If that car was yours contact me if you want to sell your white panels, I am interested.
