Nice colour combo 
Do not know if you had the 451 or 450 previously, but I had them both and the 453 is a massive improvement on the previous Smarts. It has a wider bigger cabin, smoother transmission (manual and auto versions, driven both) and has far softer and forgiving suspension. I have a 2019 cabrio now and its just brilliant. It was one of the last petrol (gas) versions from the factory before production of their fuelled cars ceased. Pity!

I would have loved the cabrio version! I was disappointed the sunroof didn’t open. No, this is my first Smart! I think I’ll love it! So sad they aren’t being made anymore. Are they still making the electric version in Europe?Nice colour combo

Interestingly, the 2020 to 2022 electric 453s have controversial tail lights with the German IRON CROSS look, likely to compete against the latest Mini's UNION JACK (UK) look of their tail lights. I personally do not like the look of either Some of the 453 owners here in Europe and UK are buying and retrofitting the Iron cross type to their 453 to give it the latest look, but do require coding to get the electrics to work right. The flashers (side repeaters) flash double speed if not coded.

Huh, I'm not seeing the Iron Cross in that design. I mean, I suppose if I squint I see it! They just look like an X to me. I do think the new design is pretty busy though, I like the older "afterburner" style:

But the new LED headlights? OH I GOTTA GET ME SOME OF THOSE. Such a shame these cars launched with dim halogen reflectors.
