EGR valve, leaky gas tank, leaky a/c, it was at most 2 months between repairs.

I hope yours ends up being less problematic than mine.
I'm sorry you had such a bad experience with the Smart. Hopefully, we will be better off. The Smart did not replace the Porsche, it replaced a 1991 Isuzu Trooper we had up until yesterday.
