smart Fan of the Week Sleeps in His smart car

Kelly Jones



smart fans will find any excuse to spend more time in their car.

After falling and breaking 5 ribs and badly injuring his back and elbow, Kate Little's husband couldn't find anywhere to sleep comfortably - except for- you guessed it, in Kate's smart car.  Armed with pillows and blankets each night, this was his best bet for sleep for 3 weeks!

Congrats to Mr. Little - who is, without a doubt, our fan of the week!

Checkered Flag smart fans are encouraged to submit their own smart photos to our Checkered Flag Auto Group facebook page.  The best…

Competition is Getting smart

Kelly Jones


I think smart car owners might have a bit of a competitive streak.  While browsing around the autoblogosphere today I came across more than a few smart car competitions.  I saw smart fortwo outrace a Ferrari, with a few modifications, of course, and then I came across what may be the greatest game ever- smart car soccer, or smart car football for you Brits out there.
 
Just take a look at the following video brought to us by Top Gear and smart.  But, please, DON'T try this at home, or anywhere else, for that matter.  Make sure to watch…

So, You Think You're smart Smart?

Kelly Jones


Well, if some of you Checkered Flag Winners aren't so familiar with the friendly little smart cars, here's your chance to get schooled on the basics.
 
The instantly popular smart has much to brag about starting with their Mercedes-Benz Engineering.  I have to admit, I was pleasantly surprised by the interior space of the smart fortwo.  There's plenty of legroom and certainly more headroom than some of my friends' compacts.   Tree huggers and bargain shoppers agree, the estimated 41 mpg efficiency of the smart is appealing across the boards!  Also, I love that the smart fortwo is…

2010 Chrome Yellow smart fortwo Just Arrived!

Christine Knowles


Spring has sprung at smart center Virginia Beach.  Our first 2010 smart coupe in Chrome Yellow just arrived!  It is BRIGHT yellow with tasteful chrome accents and just screams "Summer is here!"  The flashy hue was discontinued for the 2009 model year, and was sorely missed by many smart enthusiasts.  The front line at your Virginia Beach smart dealer just didn't look the same without the gregarious little bumble bee in the mix.  Well, I guess smart execs got wind of our despair, because its back, and better than before.
