You have helped me in the past...Is there a Auto Parts Store where I can order a bulb (turn signal/brake) for rear? Also have you heard of anyone's fan (heating/air) not coming on for days...then magically working fine??

We made the trek around Wyoming back in June 2008. Everything looked about the same... Let me know if you want to know how to make the color change on your smart

Stephen is a good friend. He has asked me to help update and run the forum. I hope we will all work together and grow what SN started. You can email him direct or me if you have any questions or helpful ideas.

My wife already said she won't drive it, beacause somebody at her work told her it's to small and that makes it unsafe. I don't know how it can be unsafe when you are in a roll cage with four air bags and seat belts. She won't like the shifting either so it's pretty much a shoe in that I will be the only one driving it. She choose the SS pickup last time so it's my turn for this car. I hope you get a BRABUS as well. Best of luck.

Thanks again for your comments

The base price for the silver / silver combination is 17,990 and thats what I ordered. I also added the front fog lamps 110.00, the daytime running lights 50.00, the anti-theft system 160.00, and the premium sound system 350.00. I finally sold my 2003 SS Chevy pickup for 20,000 dollors and had allready planed on spending about 17,000 on a passion w/allot of options anyway. So the BRABUS upgrade didn't cost that much more. Now I don't have to worry about the to small of tires and rims thing on the front anymore. Just the rougher ride. But my wife allready hates this whole smart car thing. Maybe if the car looks better she will learn to like it. LOL I don't know if I will get it sooner now that I changed my reservation to a BRABUS but I was hoping so. They are made somewhere else. Only time will tell.

Thanks for your comment,

You need anger management and human interaction therapy. People are just here sharing ideas not to read you garbage you put out. Learn to behave and try to be positive. Get a hold of yourself and breath. Its a kinder world out there and you are welcome to be a part of it.

hi all,

today is my 8 month anniversary of the delivery of my smart. got my first oil change yesterday at 5280 miles (bought the filter a week ago at my smart center, the smart tech was off on saturday)

Robert, It is normal behaviour; as designed. I have the International shifter that does NOT have the P and D lever that the USA models have. On ours, there is a button on the side of the knob. Press it and it goes into the OPTIONAL (aka: extra cos...
