Portholes

Ok, here's the question. When you slap some Portholes on your new Smart, do you put them on the door or next to the rear tail light. Since it's a 3 cylinder 2 on the driver side 1 on the passenger or all on one side.

Also regarding the NO spare issue, how about a Continental Kit ?

Someone had to ask.

"2 on the drivers side and 1 on the passenger"? correct me if i'm wrong, but the smart is an "inline 3 cylinder" with the engine mounted transversely. so that would be 3 cylinders in a row, from left to right or right to left, depending on if you're left or right handed!

as for the Continental Kit, i agree with John.....NO, no one HAD to ask!

I'd put the porthole in the tridion cell for the boldest possible statement. This will allow the public to view the secrets to smart's safety ratings! Of course, as you lie there in a coma after your tridion collapses in a collision with a bicycle, it may be difficult to answer questions from a curious public. So be sure to order the informational medallions for such occasions.

I have read the first post over an over again and it makes no sense at all.

Evil, I have to agree! What? Where? And what does any of that have to do with the 3 cy engine?

Oh, the Continental Kit exists; at least for the 450 model!

IMHO, bad taste has no limits! If class was easy, everyone would have it.
