But remember bigger doesn't mean better handling.

Oh of course, but it's not handling I'm interested in. For that I have my R32. I want to make the smart look a bit meaner, and I think an all black smart with tinted windows and bigger wheels (black of course) would do the trick.

Hello all.Long time.We finally have a Smart dealer in Puerto Rico, and as a result... I left a deposit Passion, black/black.Anyway, the reason I write is, I want to know what are the biggest wheels/tire combo that will fit without further modification. I am assuming it would be 16's or 17's, but I have been out of the community so long, that I cannot remember for the life of me.

I lived in Florida when I paid my first $99, but moved to Puerto Rico several months in. After my US friends got their invitations, I started getting impatient and got sick of waiting, canceled my ressie, and bought a VW R32. Puerto Rico has always been included in the smart reservations Well, I regret that decision, so on yesterday's call, that's what I was told.

homeland security is nothing more than the Bush administrations excuse for a workfare program... that needs to be removed and never mentioned again.

My boss has the Sony Vaio UX micro-pc which I am sorely tempted to steal.

They had refurbed ones a few months back on woot.com for about a grand, and had to resist every urge possible to whip out the Amex and find my XP install disc.

Iain. I use mine while I'm on the Metro to get busy work (billing spreadsheets, contracts, etc) done. It's much easier to conceal and much easier/cheaper to replace than my HP lappy (so I have less worry of it getting ripped off).I also like the fact that if I'm wearing baggy cargo pants, I can stick in in a side pocket.

Well, I decided to give them a call today regarding any updates on dealerships and deliveries outside of the lower 48... strictly for my curiosity.What the rep told me flabbergasted me."We don't want the cars sold in Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and Alaska" WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?I am in disbelief and frankly quite angry I heard that. I was (and still am) considering putting forth another $99 for a new reservation to get my R32 a friend (actually, I want a daily commuter that's a little easier to live with since I've had the R32 for less than a year and it's on its first trip to the body shop due to daily life on these roads, anyway back on topic). I really do hope that is a single employees opinion as opposed to a corporate opinion, otherwise I may have to look at other brands for a daily driver.

I believe it's small, as in japan it competed against the Toyota BBx (scion xB)

My brother has gotten a quote for his (eventual arrival) in Miami through Progressive. $2494/6 mos, full coverage. 27 yo single male, postgraduate degree, 670 beacon, owns house, $0 debt.I asked him to forward the rest of the quotes to me when they arrive.**edit**he just told me that he's not giving out his SSN for the quotes, so the rate should go down when he gives it.

hmm.. those numbers seem slightly.. evil

in all fairness, those 4 states, which are the 4 most populated US states, contain almost a third of the entire US population

wow.. I just noticed this.. lolThanks from nearly a month later

hmmm.. 3 servicing South Florida. Now to see what they want to export one, since my curiosity has been piqued.

So the end of this story.There's still been no word on Smart deliveries here, so I cancelled my order. On top of this, the Jetta ended up having problems with the clutch. Apparently it was damaged during the shipping, but since the damage took so long to surface, the shipping insurance basically told me to piss off. So I did what any sane person whose girlfriends dad owns a car dealership would do- I sold the car for spares and with that money (and some other money I put aside + money from the sale of two of my guitars + the money I saved by not buying the POS Wagoneer and inheriting an late model 4Runner + a small personal loan) bought a new VW R32 I have this for the daily commute and weekend surf/dive trips, and the 4Runner for the mountains.

Mike, our old S-Class arrived through North Carolina (not sure where, but I specifically remember NC). Also, MB has some business in Port of Mobile... probably just receiving for the Tuscaloosa plant, but still. Last, call me regional, but I feel that San Juan, Ponce (PR), and Honolulu are also worth checking out, since the only way cars are arriving there is via boat

Yeah, make sure that gets on the agenda! We'll make that happen. But really, "Site Feedback" is the place for suggestions unless for some reason its a suggestion you want to keep private.hey MKT... where was PR supposed to go? Because I'm sure I did it but now I can't find it either. Did I do it before the actual change over when it was just the test site? Now I can't remember - Steven

PR/USVI would fall under South Atlantic Guam and the countless other Pacific territories would be under Pacific.

Every christmas, I reformat and bring new life to my PC's. Here's the new desktop

I did, but the change hasn't reflected on my end Plus, I also PM'd Robert the list of other territories and geographically where I feel they would best be served on the forums

The ForFour was sold in Mexico... perhaps you saw a tourist passing through That's how I saw a Roadster in Florida- it had Distrito Federal Plates.

I'm wondering where the US territories/colonies fall under in the subsections.

this thread dragged me out of my holiday drinking ;)I'm extremely looking forward to seeing a GT-R on the roads and get the chance to test drive one.

I had to cancel mine due to life circumstances... you're one closer

I just bought a Hummer H2 with a petrol V8.

By the way, this wasn't meant as an insult or anything to instigate. Just a tongue in cheek quip meant to keep things light hearted. I apologize if this was taken the wrong way, and I assure you that I wasn't trying to insult or attack Sorry for hijacking your thread on what is ultimately an important issue [/olive branch]
