I have failed the Smart Community...

My friend today is picking up a new 2009 Yaris from the local Toyota Dealership. Believe me I tried my hardest to convince him to get a Smart
Once he test drove the manual 09 Yaris he was sold.

I tried my hardest, please don't be mad.

You know they say, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink (or think!)"

But, seriously, different strokes for different folks. Perhaps he has needs that the Yaris fills and the smart wouldn't. Anyway, it keeps the smart in a more exclusive club!

I guess I am selfish, but I like the fact that there are not many smarts out there. I like the uniqueness and the attention. Yep, I'm bad.

Ever since the Yugo fiasco I could never understand why anyone would name a car Yaris. It sounds like Yugo's wife.

I guess he just didn't want any attention. You can hide in a Yaris, not in the Smart.

Personaly, it was the Cup holder location that turned us off the Yaris.

What color? Just got my kid a maroon one. Offered a Smart to her and she didn't like the attention.
