I'll be at the LA Auto Show Friday with my camera. With luck they'll have the North American versions there that they had in San Jose. Got any picture requests that I can take for you?

Doors, wheels, pedals, pretty girls? Let me know!

I would love to see pics (or even just get opinions) about the yellow cabriolet with black vs silver tridion. Its the only color I havent seen in person, and I really wanted yellow. The silver looks friendlier, the black looks sportier, but my neice says it makes the car look like a bumble bee.

The car on top of the smart house in Venice, CA is a silver/yellow cab.


The car I have on order is a yellow/black cab. Since the soft-top is always black you will look like a bee. Note that the only parts that are silver at the tridion, front grill and the mirrors. The top, bottom skirts and rear window bezel are black.

photos of all models of smart exterior colors having red interior. at a similar angle as the below. ie., rear-side angle with door open, rear-side with door closed, front-side with door closed. for red interior convertibles, with the top up and down, if possible.


also,
1) verify in person, if red interior is red, or orange.
2) a large closeup single photo of the engine showing sparkplugs, wires, dip stick, or whatever is under the trunk lid.
3) a large closeup single photo of whats under the open front hood, showing fluid containers, etc.


if you see jessica, tell her i said 'hi'

here she is, in smart crystal white, on smart interior red.

spdickey,

Have you actually seen the black yellow? I originally wanted the silver yellow and thought the "bee" look was bad. But something just doesn't look right with the silver, and the yellow black is pretty sharp in how starkly the colors contrast.

Its reassuring that you ordered the same one.

Video

Almost forgot - video! Don't know if you can do it but some video of the cars, with commentary, would be great. Get one of the smart reps on camera and ask about the warranty :woohoo

Yellow Black Pictures

There are a few pictures available on the web of yellow black smarts:



Check out the link below to see several more (the site also lets you download high resolution versions):

shack01 red/silver/red smart not there? no red interiors, with any exteriors, there?

smart doesn't like the most popular smart cloth, red, any more? ... so they pulled/blocked all red interiors from the la show?


.

anyone know link where shack01's red/silver/red smart
big brother ghost

.

micronut's all-red-roadster closeup treasure find, may be an extra panel set contender winner.

Nicely done, shack01!
Why, thank you! :) You can't tell in the avatar size, but I added my personalized plate and some orange flames. Only did a .5 buttocks job, however, I'm afraid.

And Mr_Cash, it appears that you are correct, in that the photo I used is no longer available in the gallery. It was under the Red sub-division but it sure is gone now. Feel free to mooch mine if you want. (Of course in a perfect world, I would just go out to the driveway and snap away!)
