Re: Smart car whereabouts??

Yeah thanks for the vids Dave, I have watched and seen a lot of stuff on the Smarts and I am impressed with the amount of safety technology used in such a small and lower priced vehicle. Anyway my car is still not anywhere that I can find it yet so I am hoping for arrival today but who knows??

Tim I got Bay Grey and Black for my colours.

The rumor is it will be arriving at the dealership with 4 others this morning

Sweet. Race city this weekend Blair?

You know it would be hilarious to just do 1 drag race. Pull up next to someone's muscle car and rev it up.... 20 second 1/4 mile!

Re: Smart car whereabouts??

Not sure if it could do 20 seconds maybe 25

I would say that is closer to the truth. At stock 2.slow runs a tick under 20 seconds here.

Well I finally laid eyes on my new car last night in all its 0.8L 40.2hp un-PDI'd goodness! I think it will be a fun car and I can hardly wait to drive it home, hopefully I will have it for the meet tomorrow night!

Re: Smart car whereabouts??

The car is still just sitting there, LoneStar must have the slowest PDI system ever. How long does it take to prepare half a car? Very frustrated and they still will not even give me a date when it could be ready, I can hardly wait for the car and the customer service survey

That really sucks Blair, and PDI is such a joke too, what do they even do? pull the bubble wrap off? It probably sits because people spending 4 times more than you are whining that they want theirs first.
