Brabus Gets Smart

Just think - a year ago, you'd be aching to slip some Brabus parts on your V8-powered Merc with those 20-inch wheels that drained your bank account six figures. And, today, you can have all of that Brabus fun with a Smart Car for under $19,000. Times are changing - and change is apparently very good!

I have a 2009 Brabus and absolutley love the thing. It's a blast to drive around town. Granted the suspension is a little "stiff" it's no big deal. I would buy another one in a minute! (Wife does hate the thing though) Oh well, I don't have to worry about her borrowing the thing.

@crzygutrsnobrdr brabus have lowered and stiffened the suspension i.e. to improve handling, the suspension changes and low profile tires result in a terrible ride much worse than the stock car and it handles no better. i'm not asking for it to be a lotus elise just not a shopping trolly and if you hit a speed bump at 30 it would literally take off. So no it is not better than the stock car, the stock car does exactly what it is suppose to do, be a city car and for a whole lot less money

@ojdavies147 its a smart car is it suppose to handle? is it suppose to go over a speedbump going 30? no i bet its better than a stock 1

@ojdavies147 Yes you shoulda gotten a MINI

[ojdavies147]

i have a smart Brabus it is the worst car i have ever driven. The massive rims combined with the stiff short wheel base means it handles like a shopping trolly and brakes your back every time you go over a speed bump faster than 5mph. If that wasn't enough the flappy paddle gear box takes an age to change up and down and when in automatic the gear change is so clunky it becomes unbearable, should have got a mini
