This is funny for me, because I lived and grow up in germany and had a smart for 3 years, back in 1999.
I can tell you the smart has 5 star crash rating and is safer than alot of bigger " american " cars...
it has underneath cell,so in a front crash,the whole front goes underneath the car,due to the cell the way it was built.
I just still have to get over the fact,a car I used to drive almost 10 years ago,has just now in 2008 arreived here in the U.S.
I acttually give reports and data about the smart at our local Mercedes Dealer,since alot of the salesman have no inside knowledge about the smart.
So anymore questions or concerns I can answer them...
In germany and throughout europe the smart is very very common, and considered a normal car. For american standarts,its too small.
Europeans shop less,have less groceries,drive less etc..
So I assume anyone here in the US having this smart,is using it a 2nd vehicle...or has it just because its "new" here.
To me,this is one old car lol
I still remember showing pictures to my buddies 5-6 years ago what I drove in germany and they were asking me what kinda car it is and if its safe...lol
