Default We got our smartŪ!! :D

HURRAY!

Like most of you know, I recently took a product specialist position at the new smart center Portland where we sell the amazingly tiny and awesome smartŪ cars.

Matt and I purchased ours today! YAY! This will act as my daily driver since Matt and I have been sharing the VW R32 (and formerly the Audi) since we moved up here. It drives great, gets superb gas mileage, and is just so damn CUTE!!

I know the #1 questions I'm going to get is: SO WHAT ARE YOU GUYS GOING TO DO TO IT?! Nothing! Daily driver FTW! :D

Here are pics! Any questions, lemme know!







And of course, we have to promote the Teske Design name on it! (P.S. New Teske Design website is now up and running! www.teskedesign.com )

Awesome. I'm glad you opted for the black with a color matched strutural bit instead of silver.

Those look pretty cozy. Personally, i think there are alright. I like the euro look, but i dont think i would ever get one. Im sure you are going to get a TON of looks. Congratulations

They do GREAT around the city, but highway driving is great as well. They are governed at 90 MPH, so you have no problem zipping on and off the freeway and keeping up with traffic is a breeze. They actually sit approx 8" higher than a normal sedan, so you don't feel like you're in something tiny at all. You actually sit a little higher than the cars around you.
