Really? I admit the smart can be fun and in some ways a fairly cool car...but this extreme love affair sounds disturbing to me... Just MHO

even though i hope that i enjoy my Smart as much as THAT, my guess is that i'm still not giving up my Jeep.

now if Smart ever comes up with a 4x4 PICKUP........

Reserved March '07

Delivered March '08. I long wait, but worth it.

750 miles later the car is getting better every day. I think there is a break-in period for the motor and the driver. The tranny is shifting better all the time and with the paddle shifters I can make it seamless. Mileage is getting better as well. Latest was 37 mpg combination city stop and go and highway at 75 MPH.
