If you look closely at the LH BRABUS badge by the mirror, you can see where there was another larger badge previously, that has been removed. Definitely not a BRABUS. But still nice. Check your suspension springs. BRABUS ones are silver.

There's a small "BRABUS" badge on the lower right of the trunk on a real BRABUS as well.

I do have a Brabus logo in my tailgate.

In his photo, only the upper part of the rear hatch is visible with the round "Brabus" badge showing. I don't know if the small badge is in the lower right corner or not. No matter, still a nice looking car.

Really Nice Car...enjoy it, keep it clean and love it... Great info on what he has guys.. That car was cared about..

Curious as to the rims. Spec calls for 175 front and 195 rear tires. 5", 5.5", or 6" width mix front and rear?

It's not.

The US spec Brabus did not come with a "Dead Pedal". The correct Brabus brake and fuel pedal do not have elongated rubber strips and the word "smart". They only have small round rubber pads on the metal pedals.

Well, thank you! It may be fake, but still fun to drive! thank you for letting me know!

Still a smart. One thing nobody has asked is what exhaust does it have? Single side or dual center? Brabus has center. You could add it, but you'd have to change the rear valence. And you don't appear to have the rear fender flares either. Looks like smart just fancied up a regular cabrio. But did a nice job of it. And it's definitely a rarer model, as such. Sharp interior, nice wheels.

It dose have the center dual exhaust. Best part about it. Accidentally challenge alot of sports/ricers with it just shifting😅😂
