Did they redesign the plastic roof, with a glass replacement. New engine, transmission?
Any performance, or improved gas milage changes? Or just cosmetic?

2013 smarts:

The engine and power train are the same. The roof should be the new version and has the crazing issue corrected. All production from March forward should have the new roof.

All cosmetic. The roof is supposedly new on cars built on and after March.

Strangely the looks have grown on me, that red one and the gray one look so sexy!

Wish they would've changed the headlights though, maybe some eyelids to match the aggressive look?

So if mine has a date of 3/12 does that mean it should have an updated roof?
