whoever passed me, say hello

I was riding my bicycle to work this am (6/12 @ 6:30) along Bestgate Rd. in Annapolis. I had to change lanes so I looked back and here comes a yellow fortwo (my color when i get one). I pointed at the driver and said "smarty" but got no response. Didn't mean to startle ya! How she ridin? any issues?

Hello! I'm not the driver you're referring to BUT I have also seen this yellow smart buzzing around town! I don't recall seeing any posts from a yellow smartie so I don't know if he comes to this site. Should be interesting to find out! When did you put down you $99? I didn't commit until late May (this year) so I'm kinda bummed. This waiting is HARD, isn't it?

Look at it this way, you only have 604,800 minutes to go.... and counting.
Don't mean to poke fun, but I have been there, so I can sympathize!

I have heard rumors of a yellow smartie in Cape St Clair for about a month but have not seen it yet. Still running aroung in our black/sliver.

There is a yellow/black one in the general Glen Burnie area. Wonder if that is him/her?

I'm thinking I will get the config email about 6 months out from putting the $99 down and then wait another 9 months for the car. It is what it is. Of course, with these expectations, I wouldn't mind being pleasantly surprised by an earlier delivery!
