As far as we know they are only available in one color. We have black leather in our car and the armrest seems to go with the interior pretty well. If you like we can check with our oversees vendor and see if it is available in black.

Long term testing -

I've had the armrest for over a month now and it's holding up well. It does make it a little more difficult to pull the brake lever but you get used to it. Does make it more comfortable and people that get in my car think it came that way from the factory.

Another arm rest option

Hey guys, There is another arm rest option available. I just started producing these exclusively for the Smart Car. They are extremely high quality, made of billet aluminum and steel with stainless steel hardware and powder coated adjustable base. It flips out of the way when not in use and stays there with spring loaded ball bearing detents. I am having trouble with my website but I have them listed on E-Bay if you want one. Price is $285 with free shipping. Thanks, Matt












The bottom two pictures are of the prototype, the production version has a very nice leather-wrapped top!

Boeschbuilt,

That looks like a well built piece! Good luck with your offering. It is great to see a variety of options for the smart car.

For those that are looking for additional options we will be introducing another well built armrest for around the $200 mark in the next several weeks. More info to come.

Thank you!
