Cut the poor guy some slack.(This may be the only social interaction that he gets ). Anyway, there may be one or more reasons any of us might cancel an order. In my case, that'll happen if the wife doesn't like the actual U.S. version. (She wasn't real keen on the Euro tranny, but maybe I can fix it).

Carnut, you crack me up

Red interior is red. I'm a red head, I know the difference. So you can rest now, Mr. Cash (as in Johnny or $$$?)

I concur, the red interior is red...which is strange since they made the red body panels so orangey.

I doubt this info will stop further polls from Mr Cash however. ;)

What if the black interior is onyx?

My demo car was the silver/silver/red interior. I remember distinctly that the interior was a cool red...a Christmas red as we in the business call it, (I do color and retouching for the printing industry for a living).

Check the shot out that I took:

my ohio smart event test drive was in the same silver/silver/red, only with top down. and i noticed the same nice Christmas red as you described, on the seats. the dash was a bit faded or red-orange, and hope they will fix it and match the dash closer to the nice red seats.

great silver/silver/red photo, thanks. thats my ordered model/color car!, except with 9 spoke wheels, instead of 12 shown. darn, it looks good. whew. that, is a dream mobile.

notice how it obsoletes background vehicles parked on the curb. ;)
mercedes may beg, or want to pay, to put their circle birds foot advertising emblems on the front and back.

the earlier two photos in this thread, were taken at a san francisco smart dealer, early november 2007.

notice updated usa 9 spoke wheels, three spoke steering wheel, bright orange seat belt connector (latter for color reference).

rlove, (or anyone),
based on your printing/color experience,
is the lighting/camera making those two interior photos look orange, but in fact, is likely the same red we both saw at the smart summer events?

or may it be a different, new orange interior?
or too difficult to tell, without seeing it in person?

ps. rlove, your silver/silver/red is one of the best smart photos. the angle, door open pose, frame fill, real life, sharp focus. what brand/model/price, 'least expensive' digital camera, for (my) limited personal use, would give that quality of photo? for this photo, was the camera on tripod? thanks.

I don't have an opinion on the red versus orange thing (I'm colorly challenged).

But I do think Mr Cash has been the subject of some unkind treatment these past couple of days. A little bit of live and let live wouldn't go amiss. From my perspective, his posts make me smile and his polls brighten the place up. I think this community is all the richer for having him in it.

There, I said it....
