I like it, but I love the fact you state you make your own parking spots under a photo where a Jeep said "F' it!" I am gonna drive over the curb and park this bitch in the neighbors yard.

No one the iPad rather than phone and see Jeep is not only one jumping curbs... My bad, been drinking. But I stand by finding that funny.

I do like the A series though.

Not only did this post question my own ability to read, but it is a final draft of whatever you had posted first. haha

easy to tell it's not a pure (pure's all have grey interior, no glass roof, no power windows, (most no A/C), no alloy wheels, no CD player, and many other things missing.... I personally would NOT recommend a "PURE" to anyone.. pay the extra few grand and get a model thats not super duper bare bones.

that being said, it's good for groceries and so forth... i've been driving it in the rain and such because the GTR just spins all 4 wheels in the rain.

I parked it on the side of my building because it was the only place not in direct sunlight, the jeep is parked next to the baseball field next door (im sure they were practicing)

i actually had a fiat rental late last year, first i do not fit (head hits ceiling and had to drive around neck all slanted), the car is insanely slow (yes the 70hp smart is much faster) but i do like the way they look... the smart easily gets up to 90mph and stays there with ease. the fiat barely would hit 80 and it would keep dropping down in gear to get there and would shift up and then not be able to maintain speed.

either way, the fiat is not doable for me... the smart was bought for fun... and to match the Ariel Atom (color combo, impracticalness, etc. lol)

Fiat 500 Abarth is far better! I dislike Smart cars immensely. But you like it, so that's all that matters.

I've not drove a 500 but it can not be worse then that transmission.
