Anybody have a smart fortwo in the USA from Canada, the correct speedometer was installed in the car (US cluster) but it is still reading in Kilometers/hour, I heard there was a "flash update" or something that could be done. Anybody know more about this?

I'm curious... and in Australia with a fully Metric smart. And confused by your question.
The Imperial units (USA) speedo has a face plate calibrated 0 to 100 mph
The Metric units speedo has a face plate calibrated 0 to 160 kph.
You have a speedo dial that shows up to 100? But is behaving as if the 100 is kph instead of mph? (100kph approx = 60mph)

my metro took 19 seconds to hit 60 and was scarey as hell when merging, especially when an A-hole with a 6 or 8 goes slow until the last second and punches it, then you're stuck at 30mph while everyone else is doing 60!
