Can't believe I've been lurking for almost 2 years.

Finally bought a Fortwo today. 2016 5-speed turbo. I was hoping for a Cabrio but that seems to be a unicorn. Hopefully it'll offset the fuel consumption of my Cayenne Turbo S which will likely be the tow vehicle to pick it up.

Where did you get that car. Brigitte looked close to this one. Health problems caused my ex-wife to not drive this one. The moon disc really set her off. How many miles. Kind of pissed the 5 spd was in the lower trimmed 453s.

I love the paint color! I picked it up from Copart. It says it's a total loss but I can't see why. I'll know more once I get it home. It's got about 37k on it. Depending on what's wrong with it I might be picking up another as a parts car or just so I have a spare set of panels to change colors.

I think those moon disks are just inexpensive wheel covers (hubcaps). If that's right you can change the look by changing the wheel covers. -$100 and lots of choices.
You should splash out on a set of alloys. Here is my Wifes Passion Coupe in Cool silver with the silver alloys as standard. The 453 looks far better with alloys than steel wheels. Keep the steels for winter driving. Or keep one steel as a spare behind the passenger seat and sell the rest. (By the way, the white 453 Passion Cabrio is mine. We do like our 453's :D)
