3D Smart Car?

It says it is a Smart Chrysler?

It is a 3d image of a Smart Car.


It is really cool looking. It would be nice if they had one of the 451.

Deimler used to own Chrysler but they sold them off after a unsuccessful marriage. The 450 was around while Deimler-Chrysler existed but now it's just Deimler.

Ah, you're right, I'd totally forgotten about that. Must have been the shock of seeing the incredibly ugly Chryslers at the auto show... Never did figure out what those dent-looking things in all the hoods were supposed to mean (other than reeeeally ugly)..

Daimler still owns 18% of Chrysler, they will either sell/trade it to Fiat who are apparently looking to own 30% of Chrysler in order to facilitate a return to North America.

Actually this is a PRE-450 smart city?

This IS NOT a 450, it is the smart city (don't know what/if there was a model number).

This was the very first smart on the road, the one that failed the "moose test" and then was reworked and became the 450.

Notice the headlights and upper grill fogs?

So the guy drives a mouse, and is not a car guy... (and, truth to tell, not real accurate with the drawing, either...)

It's a shape model for use in video games

For example: Look at the commercial I made using the 450 model (not from that site!)
