Plano here...far, far, far North Dallas area. The SO claims that we iive in Oklahoma. I need something fuel efficient for my 2.7 mile commute. ;)

Actually, we're been wishing for the Smart to come here since first spotting them in Paris many years ago. During the wait I've been driving an old Toyota pickup, an '03 JCW Mini Cooper and currently an '02 Audi TT and an '07 Lexus IS. Dealing with a significantly less potent car determines if the Smart becomes my sole vehicle or not.

Toyota to Mercedes? Actually, I drive the TT, the SO drives the Lexus, (I get to wash it) but you're still right...big downward leap in performance from a turbo 225hp AWD to 71hp.

Round Rock Texas here. Currently driving a Honda Ridgeline and a Scion xB. It will feel strange having a car with curves sitting in the driveway.
