Who owns a Smart fortwo car in rennteam????
Was going to put this in the off-topic board, but well thought in the sports car board would be better....
I've had a first generation fortwo (599cc, 45bhp), for some months, going to work with it (perfect gaps for parking, no long waits untill you get a good parking spot), sold it and now I'm getting delivered a brand new 2008 Smart fortwo pulse, 84bhp turbo 1.000cc engine....cant wait !!!!!
The majority will think I'm crazy for posting this, in fact some years ago, thought this car was not even classified as a CAR, even more like a "mens" car, but after driving the first generation of the fortwo (the worse engine) now I understand why they are so commons !!!!, its quite big inside, engines sound great, good performance (and this is no joke, they are quick and well fuel consumption is just out of this world !!!!!! )
For those that hate this car, or thinks its a girly car (still some of my friends think that, untill we went for a drive in my previous smart), all I can say its one hell of a car, specially for the day to day, 100% fuel economy and great performance !!!!......
I plan having this car for about a year or so, and after that, make the big jump and return to something in the same league as my ex mini cooper S .......may be a VW R32 DSG (as I posted in a previous thread).....
anyway, for now, I cant wait untill Monday/Tuesday (delivery date), oh by the way !!!!, it comes with GREAT F1 paddles !!!!!, behind the wheel, just like ferrari, and not like the new PDK from porsche (puddles??? )
