did you get one of those cute Fortwo Smart cars??  I want one sooo bad but I would have to have big daddy's limbs removed in order for him to continue to carpool with me!  He's 6ft4in but he did say that he thinks he is shrinking???  I want the cabriolet, that way he can stick his head out the top.  I saw one that was pale light greenish yellow with black, it was gorgeous!  I gotta have one of them there cars!!!

Hey Marylou! 

I haven't got one yet, but test drove one in May and got on the 22 month wait list ! 
(20 months to go - WOO HOO!!! 

They have an "orphan list" going - to find owners for cars that come in for someone on the wait list who decides against buying it...  So he said it COULD be I'd have one in less than a year, if I'm not picky about the color.  I want the smartfortwo passion, the middle model with all the bells & whistles, but no convertible top.  And I told him I'd prefer blue, but I'd take anything other than white.  I have a bad history with white vehicles...

There is only one dealer in the state right now, just SW of 494 & 35W in Bloomington.  And if you ARE interested, I'd suggest you take big daddy down there for a test drive!  You would be AMAZED at how much room there is in those things!  I'm 5'11", and had PLENTY of room!  Seriously - and the passenger seat is offset a few inches behind the driver's seat to allow for more shoulder room, not that it's necessary.  The only time you even realize you're driving half a car is when you look back over your shoulder and BAM!  There's the back window!!!

Go to fullsize image    I'd KILL For this color!!!

YUP!  Super cute is right...  I'm assuming you've done image searches... I think I've seen this one, too 

The black tridion cell is standard - you have to pay extra for silver.  I prefer the black, anyway!
