I sure wish you guys had picked someplace a little more south. That is quite a drive from Vancouver USA. Have fun!

Maybe you can arrange a Portland/Vancouver GTG?

[LorbeerTLC]

Yeah, my In-Laws live in Portland and it would give me an excuse to drive down and meet our smart center Portland affiliates.

Mine is a 450 and I plan on being there. You are more than welcome to check it out as I hope I can check out a few 451's since I have not seen one yet. Mine has been extensively modified from it's original state - suspension, brakes, engine, turbo, exhaust, exterior, wheels, remap, etc. It won't be the same as the original however it should give some ideas to the potential these little cars have.

See you Sunday!

It's possible there will be print or TV news coverage of our GTG. Wash your car and get a haircut.

At this time Maxwel and Agent 99 are planning on being there Sunday.

Does anybody know if there is a car wash near-by. This is about 145 miles each way for us and as you smart drivers know, it doesn't take much to get a smart dirty. We may need to freshen up a bit.

Cheers, Dan

Well we are working on the house Sunday but will try to pop down and join in.

Cheers

There's a Brown Bear car wash about a mile north, and I think there might be a car wash at the gas station on the NW corner of Gillman and Front Streets, a block from the Triple X.

Thanks Dave, from the weather reports last night and this morning, it looks like it may be raining anyway. This is Washington after all.

Cheers

Drop us a note? Just walk on over Sunday. We have been waiting for you since you took delivery ;-)

We will bring "Smartie" to the XXX on Sunday. Then we can swap stories about best mileage runs. Ours gets up to 65 MPG highway since the remap. Or as low as 42 MPG if you run it at 80 MPH highway

What time is all this to start? I must have missed that.
