If anyone is around Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada and is interested in seeing and maybe even driving the smart 451 drop me a PM and as long as I'm around I'd be happy to meet up with you.

I'll be doing some driving down to the US in the next couple months to get the auto on wipers and lights and have full plans on heading to the west coast to see family next summer/spring.

So if you see me driving around honk, wave or just come over and say HI.

how is the 451 different from the new US version fourtwo?

The 451 is the new US smart, the 451 reffers to the version of the car, as the new smart worldwide is the 451 version as for almost 10 years they've been selling the 450 version.

Since smart calls the new smart fortwo a "smart fortwo" its really hard for people to tell the difference between the old "smart fortwo" and the new "smart fortwo" so people have added in 451 for the new smart.

Smartster... any road trips planned?

[Smartster]

Hi,

Yes we have a major trip planned in the next couple months, this will tie into about 8 smart events across the US, and we will be working at making appearances at as many as 10 smart centers in the US.

I will post route information and details here and and hopefully you can come out for one of the events, also we will be happy to take some information on SCOA to give away to attendees, also I have no issue in adding details to the events website once its created, it will live outside of any specific forum/community and will be more of a general smart event site.

I'll PM you with some more details and keep the members here upto date via here.

Just wondering if anyone up north can help me find a wheel for the front of a Smartfortwo Cabriotel-2008. I need a regular steel wheel for a spare. A used wheel would be good-not bent and straight. PM me. I'm here in NC-USA

Contact your local smart dealer, they will be able to get you a front steel wheel cheap.

Don't know about cheap; I checked out prices at smart center Sugarland near Houston - $112 for fronts, $129 for rears (and that's per wheel!)
