El Paso area smarties

Any smart owners in El Paso area?
Got to share this one: So we are driving our black smart around El Paso just moved here from Seattle 3 days ago and people in El Paso stopping and almost having accidents because they are checking out our little smart.
I feel like a "smart rock star"

There are a few, Mine is blue/silver in the northeast. A couple of white ones and a yellow one are also seen around. I am on my way to Oklahoma soon due to the BRAC.

Cool, I have a black/silver one. I'm in the West area.
Where do you go to get you service done?

Grew up in El Paso

Lived in EP for 29 years. I am in New Orleans now. My mom and stepdad live there on Orleans Ave (what a coincidence...) off of Rushing and said they have seen a blue one on Dyer. Duckhunter, I assue that is you
Got mine in May of this year. It's a blast to drive! Hoping to be able to drive it there someday.

Y'all be careful out there,
Pops & Carlito

Dealers are a long way from here, around 250-300 miles. I perform my own services as I know they are done right and I get to know the vehicle better that way. I have a few minor things that the dealer will have to look at before warantee is up, AC could be colder and the temp control could be looked at, Intermittant idle issue that seems to have worked itself out, 2.0 trans update and possibly adding daytime running lights. had to show the state inspection people where everything was at as mine was the first one that they had seen. Picked up a nail in the tire and had to show the tire guy where the jacking points were at.

POPS, that very well could have been me, but I have seen one other blue Smart once a couple of months ago.

Well I will tell them it was you so if you notice a 5', 85 year old lady waving frantically, it's likely my mom...

Welcome to Texas! Not a really big smart state-like more pick-up trucks! I'm in the DFW area and also have the mandatory pick-up, as well as three Vettes and a Mercedes. No kids or pets, so gotta have something. Oh, yeah, another Polish one here.

I've seen a red smart going north on N. Mesa Street 07/09/2009
and on 07/10/2009 I saw a yellow and a blue smart in the parkinglot of N. Mesa Homedepot (west EP).

Lets count:
I saw a white, red, blue and yellow Smart in 1 week in EP. There are a total of 5 smarts in EP.
