As long as you get earlier rather than later you should be ok. As production continues, they will figure out how to make it faster, with cheaper parts. Must maintain margins.
hahahaha. dude ur killing me. the car is not new. it has been in production for 10 years. i think they've probably worked out the kinks by now. at least i would hope.
They had to change it somewhat for the US. I sure they are not done. Things will get moved. Metal things will go plastic but you are probably right. In 10 years they have probably squeezed every last drop out of this lemon! . That was my attempt to stay negative.
It is worse then you think... we are beta testers...the 451 is about 80% all new...new motor, redone getrag trany, new tridion, new panels, new dash and cluster, new seats, new steering and suspension... there is really very little of the gen 1 or gen two smarT foRtwO inside or outside...they are even using different plastic for the roof and panels and water based paint...beta testers....not two schmarT
You forget that our Euro-brothers have been testing for a year now.
New and improved?....YES!
I usually try to conform to the rules of English grammar and spelling. But, in this case, I still think I'm smart for wanting a smart. Smart? We'll see...
Grammar and spelling has become a "lost art", especially with the advent of internet chat rooms, instant messaging and cellular phone text messaging. People have become lazy, I believe...
