OK, this model I definitely don't think is coming to Malaysia anytime soon.

It doesnt have:

- a roof.
- Windshield
- doors

But check out the pics (have to wait for admin to release them first, but
if impatient, can go to photo album main page - look under "cars"). Found
oyt abt her at www.smart.com (look under Japan)

There was one here and I've driven it.

It looks the most impressive of all of them but the wind blast when
driving at normal speeds is terrible, far worse than riding a bike. There
may be a speed at which the blast is deflected upwards but I never
reached it.

schnapps, you make a fool of yourself so often but you have my respect
for turning it into an art-form.

Tell me, why would you doubt me?

Interesting news. DC will be bringing in 1 unit of the 2005 Smart Cross
Blade. This car is definitely for show only, but can be made available
upon order.

You should ask them what happened to the one that was here before. You
should see those drop down side impact bars, incredible.

I did, they were brought in by Mofaz. In fact they are still selling the
older batch at RM150K - without warranty and no available service centres.
Now that DC has brought the newer models in (with warranty and available
SCs, Mofaz is practically stuck with the old batch)

As for the Cross Blade, I was told there are 2 units in Malaysia now. Both
are at some seaside resort somewhere - I wonder why Big Smile

Frown Missed seeing her the last time round ... maybe the 2005 model

That one I didn't know, the cars I tried were bought in by DC.

Some were meant for last years motor show but it was THEY who told me
they already had 200 here cars here, hence my warning.
