[MrBarrelomonkeys]

[tp22clt]

I take a S*** bigger then this car.

[H20MarkVIII]

@tp22clt You must have had many things stretching your bum hole then

[llandudnoboy]

Superb video, one of the best ive seen in the Us and that's from a Smart owner in the United Kingdom.

I own a little Smart Passion called Charlie and he runs on DIESEL, that's right he is the 799cc Turbodiesel that every Smart lover in America dreams of owning.

I love my Smart ever so much and the ownership experience has been amazing.

Only downside is that here in the Uk they are expensive too buy but i would definately get another when i am ready and can afford to do so.

[MegaBrush1]

this has to be the dumbest car ever. friggin tree hugger mobile.

[llandudnoboy]

@MegaBrush1

I suppose you drive a Hemi Dodge Charger or such like.

A smart car is the answer to our overcrowded cities where parking can often be a nightmare.

It's a city car and because of that its slow but who cares when you can park it anywhere when regular cars and SUvs have to drive on by.

[theelecwizrd]

sounds like the white car at the end could have used the smarts TPS

[noobciity321]

Best review of smart car on youtube been looking everywhere for a review as good as this . good job man fucking perfect review. Couldnt be better thanks alot

[hardrock997]

[Tarikace15]

@hardrock997 you know there is a Smart fortwo ED-Electric drive it's like a hybrid.

[hardrock997]

i would be happy if it was electric

[frankrulez8395]

well I like it :)

[9Skateboard7]

at least its easy to park xDD

[bendadickarnold]

Someone in my neighborhood has a smart car in lieu of a golf cart and every time I see it I want to tip it over you know what they say curls get the girls

[tankepavoneII]

how can you review an R8 V10 and after that beast, you review this piece of shit? hahaha

[kode1996]

he blew through that stop sign

[dominic05102]

can you test the is350 please and thank you

[kasagar]

Herky Jerky? Jeez, drive it for a few months and you will learn how to operate it correctly. My Cabriolet shifts as smooth as silk in both manual and automatic...

Hi Neon :-)

[Neonspinnazz30]

Word of advice on shifting, lift your foot off the pedal when it shifts. That way the computer won't get confused and it'll shift faster and smoother.

Great review!

[vothry]

price?

[Neonspinnazz30]

@vothry $11,990 (pure) to $20,000 (BRABUS tuned performance model)

[ThommyRV]

OMG!!! You are so Sweet and Sexy!! I would like to take you on my Smart Car!! ;)

[asianmovement]

Dear Gearpatrol,

Please fix your audio. Some parts are loud and some parts its hard to hear.

Thanks

[TheVtieg6]

Good city car apart from the gearbox but its not for me

[minibus1351]

i dont understand why anyone would choose this over a Mini. I guess this is considerably cheaper but I would save up a little more and buy a Mini

[kadvid]

@minibus1351 The old Mini, yes. The new one doesn't deserve that name. It should have been called Maxi, just a regular small hatchback trying to be retro. I'd rather have the Fiat 500. The smart makes sense for people who only need a two seater in town, where there is no space to park at all. This can squeeze into any space. Not that I want one, but I can see where it makes sense. The only thing that is smaller is the Peel P50, but that car has no safety or creature comfort at all.

[minibus1351]

@kadvid dude, don't get me wrong. I agree, I will take the Fiat 500 9/10 times over the MINI. I mean if parking is an issue, isn't a MINI or a 500 good enough? The Smart is just way too small... Would be pretty good to take a driving test in though. ha

[kadvid]

@minibus1351 I suppose that depends on where you live and what you need. All I'm saying is there is a reason why the car exists and makes sense. Can't say that about the BMW X6 for example.

[Neonspinnazz30]

@minibus1351 Makes perfect sense in Europe where streets are tiny and wars are waged over parking, this is why they sell so well over there. Here in America you get SUVs hogging up your precious space.

No a Mini nor a 500 would be good enough as the Mini is over 3ft longer and the 500 is a bit more than 2 ft longer.

Also the Mini has poor-ish safety ratings.

[minibus1351]

@Neonspinnazz30 i live in the UK and something that small is not needed at all.

[Neonspinnazz30]

@minibus1351 Your needs/wants may not be the same as others.

But that's the thing about choice, choose what you think fits you! =)

[SpottedPlatypus]

Enjoyable review, I still don't want one but it was enjoyable to watch.

[desimunda116]

how do you go from audi r8 v10 to this piece of shit?

[TheVtieg6]

@desimunda116

He reviews cars thats how he went from an R8 to this cus its not like everyone can afford an R8

[desimunda116]

@TheVtieg6 i know that it was sorta meant to be a joke, like this car is a joke. review something that still has some respect like a civic si or a speed3

[TheVtieg6]

@desimunda116

Its designed to be a really small economical city car for people which it does fairly well. I dont see how its a joke

[Neonspinnazz30]

@desimunda116 I'm sorry but why is it a "piece of shit"?

Give me ONE valid reason.

[desimunda116]

@Neonspinnazz30 3 cylinder under 100hp im sorry thats shit also, my neighbor has one and he's like 400 pounds and its just the funniest thing to see him get into this thing

[Neonspinnazz30]

@desimunda116 3 cylinder, under 100bhp is all you got? Apparently you know nothing about cars. Thousands of cars in Japan have sub 100bhp and same goes for many cars in Europe. Heck, even the Toyota Tercel and Geo Metro both had sub 100bhp. Just because it isn't a V8 doesn't automatically mean it sucks.

[Zinizzle]

damn you didnt even stop for the stop sign at 0:17

[FerreiralovesFerrari]

Piece of shit...

[Neonspinnazz30]

@FerreiralovesFerrari Well, this comes from a Ferrari owner I suppose. You know a busa beat one of you guys? Sad.

[FerreiralovesFerrari]

@Neonspinnazz30 I dont own any Ferraris im fucking 15 =P My last names Ferreira and i happen to love Ferraris [=

[Neonspinnazz30]

@FerreiralovesFerrari Oh I see =)

I happen to love smart and I'm 18 =P

Audi & Lamborghini too =)

[FerreiralovesFerrari]

@Neonspinnazz30 I can tell by looking at your channel =P

BTW Audi is my favorite brand [= I love Ferraris but of course they are not very realistic if you know what i mean.

[Neonspinnazz30]

@FerreiralovesFerrari Audi R8 V10 *drool*...

[FerreiralovesFerrari]

@Neonspinnazz30 Audi A8 W12 *drooooool*...

[Vagmonster666]

mileage?

[Neonspinnazz30]

@Vagmonster666 EPA rates it 33/36/41. The majority of owners get an avg of 43-50.

The 2011 model year has upgraded MPG figures so I'd wait.

[chrisw40]

dam you probably scratched the shit out of the hood when you through it on the ground good job! is that your passion scratching the shit out of cars you test.get it passion lol

[chrisw40]

That cars a piece of crap!

[Neonspinnazz30]

@chrisw40 Why?

[chrisw40]

@Neonspinnazz30 because you were born that way dont be so hard on yourself for being Gay ! to each his own.

[Neonspinnazz30]

@chrisw40 To each of his own is correct...Gay I am not but whatever, I keep an open mind unlike much of America ='(

[chrisw40]

@Neonspinnazz30 dont feel bad because you like shitty cars come on someone has to drive them lol

[Neonspinnazz30]

@chrisw40 Feel bad, it's one of my dream cars (along with LP 550-2 Balboni, R8 V10, smart roadster)

[chrisw40]

@Neonspinnazz30 smart fortwo dream car more like a horrible nightmare of embarrassment.

[Neonspinnazz30]

@chrisw40 I like microcars, they as a whole are a fascinating part of car culture, a different kind of fun on four (or 3) wheels. Don't get me wrong, Supercars are phenomenal and are the machines of dreams but micros have like their own little league.

If you don't understand (which you won't because I already know you're going to post something about sexuality) that's fine with me, your choice is yours, mine is mine. No need to poke at what people like...

[chrisw40]

@Neonspinnazz30 okay gandhi

[chrisw40]

@Neonspinnazz30 smart cars aren't that bad but i would much rather have a fiat 500.dont take my smart car comments so seriously : D

[Neonspinnazz30]

@chrisw40 Yeah, it'll be here next year too!
