I find the Smart cars to be kind of "cute" if you will, and given your stated purpose, a Smart makes some sense. And I never really knew that there would be such a wide variety of mods available, and I do commend you on a great job!

Still, if I were to need a small runabout car, I'd most certainly get a Honda Fit. About the same price, usable back seat and storage. If places like train stations and the like started to offer parking specifically made for micro cars like the Smart, and with lower parking fees since you are only taking up half a spot, the Smart car value proposition increases greatly.

Nice ride, but you should have built a highboy.

(1) Smorvette
(2) Smerrari
(3) Smamborghini
(4) Smorche
(5) Smorche Targa
(6) Smaudi A3

Damn, those all look hilariously awesome! I'd rock one of those! (especially if they made an X5 or X6 version!)

Sorry, would like to get behind those mods but the Smart does absolutely nothing for me.

Why not just get a Mini Cooper S? Mod the shit out of that thing.

Make perfect sense to me. Enjoy the mods

If cost is so much an issue than why throw all that money away on mods.. You could have easily found a nice, preowned, Mini Cooper S with some miles for that price.
