The thing about the regular Smart Car over here is that it only gets like 36mpg. Did this one do better?

Conor
That was the 2008- why was it so bad. It had a Mitsubishi motor with a 5sp

2005-2007 Smart car Diesel got around 70mpg. It was imported into Canada and you can find one for a decent price, I did.

2004-2007 Smart car Gas got around mid 50's mpg and was imported into Calif, and then modified,(made more expensive)

Why did those early Car's do so well, they had MB motors in them, plus turbo-charging, and a 6sp.

If you want to see a really nice Smart car look up a Crossblade

*Large items not to exceed 2ft in length.

I love how they explain that this mod will somehow make the car "much faster on the highway." :lol Also note the disclaimer:
