Who's driving that little yellow car out there?

I am thinking of printing up a Q&A fact sheet and handing them out! It is getting to be a part time job . Or maybe I should be a dealer!

Here is what I have as a handout (from rrrucke and I modified for me):

The smart, introduced in Spain in 1998, was designed by Swatch. It is made by Mercedes and nearly 1 million have been sold in more than 36 countries. In January 2008, the smart ForTwo was launched in the United States in limited quantities (<25,000) by Mercedes and distributed by Penske Automotives Group. The ForTwo has a worldwide cult following and it has been featured in movies and commercials. So unique, it is one of only 6 cars shown in the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

• The ForTwo has a gas powered 3-CYL, 1.0 LTR, 71 HP ENGINE, 8.7 gallon tank which requires premium gas.
• EPA 2008: 33 city/41 highway. I have been averaging 40 MPG traveling 35 miles one way to work.
• Top Speed: 90 MPH.
• The transmission is a 5-speed automated with no floor clutch (Instead paddle shifters are behind the steering wheel) and it switches to automatic with a simple touch on the gear shift.
• The unique Tridion Safety Cell & Roll bar/Frame also includes front/side airbags & the entire safety concept was modeled after NASCAR'S Roll Cage which keeps occupants safe.
• There are two U.S. models: Pure ($11,590) Passion Coupe ($13,590) & Passion Cabriolet ($16,590). This car is the Passion Coupe and I paid about $16,000 with the only add-on being the metallic blue and silver paint.
• It's one of the best eco-friendly cards and it makes everyone smile.
• Now stop gawking & go to smart USA - open your mind to the car that challenges the status quo & reserve one for a refundable $99.
• Also check out two online USA fan clubs at: SmartCarofAmerica.com or ClubsmartCar.com. tell them David invited you to "Come & Say HI".

See ya online or on the road (But rarely at the gas pump!)
