Test driving something new this weekend.

I will be taking measurements to see how many subs I can fit in the back. Will probably order one this weekend for a July delivery if possible.
No, I'm NOT getting rid of the xB. The Smart Car will be my daily driver so I can put the xB into the garage and spend more time on it. I'm getting to the point where I want to start doing some very unique stuff with the xB, but need to have a second vehicle to do it.
why a smart car, they are kinda neat, but rediculously expensive for what they are. there are lots of other cars that are better buys for the money. i'd just buy a beater if i needed a daily driver for my project car.

I love owning and collecting stuff that is out of the ordinary.

Yup. With the '10 Prius arriving people should be able to grab an '09 for less than a smart (if economy is the issue)
And Robert, the question isn't how many subs you can get in there, it's going to be "will the doors stay on when they hit?"

The wait is 12 months to order the exact color / model I want, uugghh.
I'm looking at a few that they have in stock and might go ahead and buy one of those this week. I'll be talking to my bank tomorrow.

The smart cars are not very unique at all anymore. I see them all the time. We have one here at work. It is cool. But for the price. I dont know. Now that more and more people are coming out with cars like this. I wonder what it will do to the resale value of the "Smartcar".
