Radical downgrade

After some 14 yrs of ownership i had to part with my pcar, mostly due to financial constraints.
To keep me entertained i bought this small bundle of joy...

Not to be that guy but videos of smart cars undergoing frontal crash tests are pretty impressive. It was a Daimler Benz project after all.

I knew someone with a bright yellow smart roadster who removed the smart badging and replaced it with benz stars. I didn’t like that at all, though the car was fun.

Sorry to see you sell the 74 but I’m sure you made out well.

I do not disbelieve in anything. I start from the premise that everything is true until proved false. Everything is possible.

I've never had the desire for owning a Smart car, but if I did, I've already chosen my personalized license plate: AINTSO

When I was in Ireland a few guys from work got a cheap flight to Germany and got rentals at the airport , then did the ring .

Apparently the smart roadster was the best of the bunch .
