Weak, golf cart like brakes? Among other errors (Glass roof?)
Well, no reviewer is perfect. Interesting though.

I think you are onto something, I have yet to see or hear any review that had its facts right yet regarding the Smart. They always have a fact wrong or are very much miss informed.

Someone should give them Fact Sheets and then let them give their oinions based on Facts not assumptions.

Well to be honest, the first time I drive any car the brakes feel strange. But over time these brakes actually are the best I've ever experienced!

These reviews need to be run by Smart before being allowed to reliese and mis-inform the public.

Isn't the point of an independent review to not be influenced by the manufacturer?

I didn't notice that. I did notice a number of opinions which I disagreed with, but I guess that's to be expected. Reviews like this always tend to be subjective. But, you're still supposed to get the hard facts correct.

jefferios: I agree with you about the brakes. My first impression, in test drive, was NOT good either. But it didn't take a full day's driving to get used to them. And, I've never actually driven a golf cart. I still didn't like the comparison though. They feel very satisfactory now.
