Smart fortwo Usados en Venta

This vehicle has been great for me, especially since I am a college student that attends a commuter college 20 miles away. The gas mileage is exceptional and has yet to cost me over $30 to fill it up in the 3 years that I have had it. I chose to add heated seats in the car which have definitely come in handy in the winter! They provide just the right amount of heat and contain two different settings that adjust the heat intensity. The air conditioning is great as well, it cools very quickly and operates on an automatic setting based on the temperature. The "trunk" provides just enough storage space for small bags and is perfect for small shopping trips. Because of the size, the car is very easy to park and operate. The safety ratings are also very good, which makes you feel safe even though the car is so small. The few things that I dislike about the car is that the seats are a bit uncomfortable after driving or riding in it for a significant amount of time. The turning radius also isn't very good, which is surprising because it is so small. The air vents also aren't very well manipulated and only move down to a certain area (around your face). If you are a little bit shorter, the vents won't go down far enough to blow on other parts of your body. Overall, the car is a great transportation method for a young, single, college student who does some traveling but doesn't have a lot of luggage to transport from place to place. The gas mileage makes up for most of the small cons that the car posses.

The Smart car is an inexpensive two-seater car that has a lot of mechanical flaws. The automatic shifting in the car was not well made, therefore, there is constant jerking when accelerating and decelerating. The car has repeatedly had issues starting and has left me stranded three times. Upon inspection at the dealership, it was determined that there was a "computer programming error." These multiple issues all occurred during the three year lease period on my vehicle. On the positive side, the inside held up during three years of wear and tear, and, it costs around $20 to fill up the tank.

I bought this Smart car a couple of years ago when I needed a reliable work car. Yes, it is small, but I have never felt unsafe while driving it. Further, while the Smart car is approximately as long as a regular-sized car is wide, it is surprisingly spacious inside. I enjoy the sunroof on sunny days, and I really like the sound system as it is, straight from the manufacturer. The car handles really well, and has a neat dual manual/automatic transmission. The gas mileage that I enjoy is 33 in the city and 41 on the highway, using an 8.7 gallon gas tank. And, depending on the current price of gas/gallon, a fill-up rarely ever costs me more than $24.00. Another plus, is that, although this car has noticeable, albeit slight, lag when switching gears, it can handle 80+ miles per hour really well without the slightest tremor of the steering wheel. When I first purchased the Smart car, I thought that I would feel blown off the road by strong lateral winds or passing 18-wheelers or semi trucks, but shockingly, I very rarely ever feel the lateral pressure of large vehicles passing me while on the interstate. Which brings me to my final, and only, point regarding what I dislike about the Smart car: The only thing I do not like about the Smart car is being in a lane between two 18-wheelers. But, this is only a comfort thing. I simply do not care to be in such a small vehicle while moving in tandem between two transfer trucks. Driven by road weary people guzzling espresso and popping NoDoz.
