Replying to: smartcarforme (Mar 22, 2006 7:30 pm) If you don't mind me asking- why are you selling such a fantastic car?   Are you upgrading to a new Smart ForTwo? Replies to this message: smartcarforme (Mar 23, 2006 3:47 pm) jchan2 (Mar 23, 2006 7:58 pm)

#10 of 72 I've been keeping an eye on the Smart fortwo for a while by watkinst Mar 24, 2006 (4:36 pm)
Zap got the jump on Mercedes and I suspect there will be a big blow up once Mercedes decides they can actually sell the car in the US. More than anything I think its all politics. We have motorcycles with 1000cc engines sold by the hundreds with minimal polution controls on them in the US each year even in California. I ride a motorcycle all the time and if I could trade it for a quality car like the SMART with airbags and a roof I would be there in a second. I think the problem with the small cars and the perception in the US is that all of the small cars we have seen besides the original Civic are total junk. The SMART appears to have serious engineering and quality materials and that is a big plus even if it is a pint sized car. The small GM cars are still $18K or more and they are garbage. Seriously I think the first company to get SMART and sell a quality small car for a resonable price in the US will have a winner. The Mini is clearly to expensive for most people but the concept of a small quality car has made it very popular. I don't see why the SMART car would be much different only perhaps more affordable and great for the daily trip to the office.

Replying to: thecarguy2 (Apr 04, 2006 9:03 pm) There is this company in Scottsdale, Arizona I think called ZapCars that will modify a Smart ForTwo for you and import it into the US- you have to pay for the modifications and the actual Smart itself.
#16 of 72 Smart cars and all electric cars are available! by nobigoil May 04, 2006 (6:55 am)
This site and many other cars sites don't seem to know that a small company ZAP (stock symbol ZP) is delivering smart cars that get amazing gas mileage see www.zapworld.com and all electric cars. Why doesn't this site and others list this manufacturer? Replies to this message: dawnj (May 12, 2006 6:44 am) lonestar98 (Jun 16, 2006 7:44 am) snakeweasel (Jun 16, 2006 8:05 am) and 2 more...
