Wonder

Gave blood this morning and then saw a virtual twin of my red/black parked in front of the Wonder Ballroom on NE Russell.

Where the heck is everyone?

No smarts sighted by anyone else in a month? OK, I'll prime the pump again:

I was driving north on Caeser Chavez/39th this morning about 11:20 and a silver/black cabrio went south past me a couple blocks south of Hawthorne Blvd. Both of us had our tops down and we stuck our hands out as we passed.

I keep forgetting to do the official thumb/finger smart hand sign!

There was some discussion here quite a while back about using the A-OK (thumb and forefinger touching, other fingers up) to mirror the smart logo and number of cylinders, respectively.

I can't think that fast... I'm lucky to flash a light, honk a horn or wave like a mad person

No waves. Double silver (I think with biz name on door) crossed my path at E Burnside & 28th. White/silver parked on SE Alder just east of 11th.

I saw a double silver on Burnside today, too! Going east @ Caesar E Chavez around 12:20'ish. Also saw a white one parked in a driveway on Mt Tabor and a red black 08 coupe somewhere in the neighborhood around lunchtime, too.

I've still never seen you in the wild, Darrel!

HI, Darrel;

That would have been the wife and puppy with me. I too need to learn the official international sign of the SMART CAR acknowledgement.

On another note: Congrats to Suze and her new Zippy ver.2. Cabrio.

Respectfully,

Glenn P.

Saw TWO smarties today! An all black (Brabus?) as I was coming home from work with tinted windows - I waved but don't know if anyone waved back due to the tint. As I was walking I saw a red/silver zipping by me.
Also have been seeing a blue/silver around town too! Very exciting since I really never see any others around here.

I've never seen any CT smarts out here around the PNW either, Roobi...
