Well, if you had to get a Smart car, at least with that ^^^ kit it would look better than it does stock.

Is this car front or rear wheel drive lol. I know nothing about them. I saw one the other day with like 5% tint that driver did not want to be seen.

I absolutely hate most wheel changes / rims / etc. and most times people do up cars, they look awful (gaudy, tasteless, overdone, etc.)

But I like the irony of this conversion. I also like the rims, just so you can say, "Look at these 14" rims!"

I don't like the visual details, but overall it looks nice.

But imagine riding on those thin strips of rubber. I don't think the car has much of a refined ride to begin.

you got it exactly right -- gaudy, tasteless, overdone

I like the Brabus car MUCH better...

Not feeling it. Don't like the graphics on it either. The Xclusive looks better (love the "titanium" headlights... aka smoked headlights). It has the 92hp turbo 1.0 litre.

For a 3 cylinder small car the Smart gets dismal MPG. You mainly buy one for it's uniqueness and it's compact body. In cities like Boston where parking is horribly limited, the Smart is a gem.

It's rear engine, RWD.

Yet it's the most fuel efficient non-hybrid car.

these things can be really fast too with a bit of tender loving modding
theres a video of electric ForTwo dragging faster than F430/F360 (dont remember which) on youtube
