The engine is the same as a regular Smart. In fact, the only differences are tires, wheels, suspension, exhaust, body panels and trim. I have only driven one regular Smart and that was two years ago at the Smart Road Tour. My Brabus coupe is only a…

Speaking of suspension, is there anything we as new owners can do to soften the ride a little. Like - lower the airpreassure in the tires? What is lowest preasure you can run? Also, what should the R…
Thanks Guys!!
Still waiting for some reply in Houston!!
Thanks for the info!!
I"m also in Calif. We have a discount windsheild dealer here in Salinas called Colision Auto Center. They come and do the change in your driveway. They advertise windsheild replacement starting at $150. and I have used them for other vehicles, and w…
I live in California and had to replace the windshield. I used Safelite. You can go online and fill out the form and they do the rest. They come to you and it was done in under an hour. I was very satisfied. I only had to pay the deductable.
I had t…
Anyone out there who has changed the Windshield already?
I got mine cracked on I-10..And I don't know where to take it besides the dealership.
which I believe it is quite expensive....Any suggestions Houston Smarters ??
My Windshield doesn't have th…
Got my Brabus May 30 2009, I was very satisfied the added changes the Mercedez did. The acceleration is good when you use the paddle. The rim's are all stencil with BRABUS.The Exchust pipe sound good.(Not as loud as my Harley)lol....The suspension a…
I like the fact that myBrabus has very sticky firm grip the road tires and suspension. This thing rides like a Go Kart, and is virtually unaffected by Big trucks. No more than my 94 Caddy was. I expected to be blown all over the road, NOT! I highly…

Anyone out there problems with the soft Top on the Cabriolet??
I just noticed my Soft Top is getting a litle bump on the outside by the driver's side.
And I noticed too, that the Black Fabric covers the passenger side more than the Drivers side...
I QUITE SCARED OF A COMING LEAK.....

TRANSMISSION CHANGED YET..ANYONE OUT THERE??
Guys,
As I mentioned before I was hearing a rattleling sound coming from the back of my car..Well...I took it to the dealer..and after testing my car and other cars including brand new ones (mine is three weeks old though) we found out that my car had an extra sound coming from the back, most probably from the engine. Sound was louder, especially when you were driving in low speed and the car was doing its automatic shifting....
Anyway...result:
The service specialist contact SMART and they are… Continue

Hello everyone, I just picked up my smart passion on Saturday, such a fun car to drive. Would love to organize a smart rally in NJ. Where is everyone from, I am in Hunterdon Cunty.
Tried Pizza Hut?
Yep, and they are taking all of their customers with them. I guess you can have an idea how mad I will be if I am able to get my new fortwo fixed or to even get parts. My blood is going to be BOILING! Why did Penske even bother to bring these cars h…
I have seen a 451 in Florida with a "backpack" on. Like a pizza delivery car. Looks great Does anybody nows where i can get it ??????????
See previous posts in this thread. I've been saying that for a very long time. Daimler and Smart have not supported this brand in the US and they apparently relied on viral marketing and YouTube to do all of their advertising. My Smart dealer didn't…
Why is it that I see TONS of commercials for Honda, Toyota, Hyundai and Nissan but ZERO for smart cars? Why did they even bother to bring these cars to this country in the first place for? If Rick Case spent $2,000,000 on his 5,000 sq. ft. facility,…
I think a one word answer will do for all of the US, and that word is . . . . . . . . . .
ZERO
On NPR our "local" dealer has a SMART commercial, but I have heard or seen nothing else!
Except for Nissan who is advertising their micro/micra.
