Black smart in Texas?

Kids,
What are your thoughts on having a black smart here in Texas? Not sure how well the AC works. Though it may not be a strong AC unit it only has to cool a small area!
I'm thinking black with the red interior. I saw a black on black with red interior in Paris yesterday and it looked GREAT!

I'll let you know. I'm going to order all black, and I should be driving it in the Summer before you get to order.

I really like the black on black with red. Yep, you'll probably be driving a smart way before me....I reserved in Oct. My black vette does fine in the Texas heat but Vettes have very good AC.

Definitely take the camera; have a great time, we always enjoy our infrequent visits there. Speaking of Vettes, were you at the Sam Houston Club show the end of September? I was visiting from Ohio and might have a photo of your car.

Black on black was my original choice. Black is always my choice. I had a black ML and love it. I wanted my G35 coupe to be black but voted down by the boss lady. Again, I was voted down this time. I don't think black is too hot for Texas. I 'll have black leather interior for my yellow and silver 451.

Don't think so, but I've got the same user id on that forum.

There's a grey market black/silver Smart I see every now and then in the North Dallas area. The last time I saw it was in my office parking lot. I think that guy worked for some insurance agency.
