Home at last

We are very happy to report the delivery of a brand spanking new Red/Black Smart 42 Passion.

Delivery went very well at Smart Center Bloomfield. Claudia was a bundle of nerves but Samantha handeled her like a pro.

Sean had all the paperwork ready to be signed and sealed the deal.

Having never driven a Smart and Claudia being way to excited to drive Samantha gave me a quick lesson and off we went.

Weather was very poor so not much touring and showing off today.

But watch Metro Detroit I am sure we will be taking it everywhere we can.

Thanks to all of you here on the forums and see you Michigan Members at the April meet.

Photos to come.

Mr Claudia...

...congratulations to all three of you!! I'm sure your new smartie could not have found a better home.

Also, you better enjoy your time behind the wheel while you can, because once Claudia takes it for a spin...you may never see the keys again! :-)

Enjoy!!

Oh, yeah...where are the cigars??

Congratulations!

Enjoy the fun! It will be an absolute blast to drive once you get the hang of it. I have finally master the driving and now getting about 30 more miles to a tank of gas.

Be careful of the Michigan potholes. I'll be getting a new front wheel it is bent a little from a pot hole. No air leak but noticeable. About $320 to fix at smart center Bloomfield.

Congrats to both you and Claudia! Mine is at Bloomfield (did you see it? It's a red/black/black leather cabrio), but I won't be able to pick it up until a week from Saturday, since Shane is out of town this weekend and the logistics during the week are just too difficult.
