Smart Car 2009 Fortwo Pure - Low Miles - Cutie Must See! Great Mpg! No Reserve! on 2040-cars

Year:2009 Mileage:27963
Location:

Las Vegas, Nevada, United States

Las Vegas, Nevada, United States

This is the super fun fantastically cute Smart Fortwo car - made by Mercedes in France!

Original owner moving out of the country so need to help this much loved car find a new owner. 

Miles per gallon is near 40! Save big on gas with the 8 gallon tank.

It is in much loved condition, no accidents, super reliable, smoke-free and garaged the entire 4 years and used only about half the miles of a car this age. You only need to get the car serviced once per year - no oil changes or other service required - once a year is it, and this car has been serviced yearly at the local Las Vegas Mercedes dealer and given a clean bill of health (records included). 

It has never had any mechanical problems that disabled it, never towed, only one clogged intake valve that caused it to run rough till we drove it to the dealership. We used a trickle charger to keep the battery topped off when travelling (included with purchase). Car software version was upgraded to 2.03 at the dealership for smoother shifting patterns.

This car is exactly 4 years old this month, so even though it was purchased during the 2010 model year, it is a 2009 model because the dealer sold 2009 models as new at that time. Dealer was Smart Center Las Vegas.

Car features the safety cell design with a roll cage surrounding you and 8 air bags for maximum protection, don't let the size fool you - this car is safety rated. Roomy inside, quiet driving, and holds several pieces of large luggage behind the seats. Tall drivers will see it is quite tall and easily seen in traffic - you will get noticed and people will talk to you when you drive this cutie! You can also park it on the street facing the curb as it is only 8 feet long, making a parking space where there was none before.

There is a hard to notice shallow scratch on the passenger side door that probably could be buffed away by a car detailer. Otherwise, no known issues with the car other than normal wear. Runs great in TWO directions - forward AND reverse! Fantastically easy to park and run around town, works great for the Las Vegas desert and AC is cold. 

Transmission is dual mode - you can leave it in automatic mode if you prefer it simple, but if you want a sportier and smoother experience, use the manual shift mode, where you simply tap the stick forward or backwards to change gears, no clutch. So much more fun to drive that way, as well as smoother shifting if you let off the gas a bit before switching gears. Has incredible power and speed for a 3 cylinder gas miser, and does very well on highway drives all the way to Los Angeles and San Diego on cruise control.

The radio was installed by Frys Electronics and can play music from AM/FM plus audio-in for your cell phone (headphone cable included), USB and SDRAM memory sticks.

The license plate registration expires at the end of May so will need to be renewed upon receipt. License plates will come with the car as i have no vehicle to transfer them to.

Includes webbing to keep grocery bags from falling forward behind the seats on a sudden stop

Starting at $1 this Auction has NO RESERVE! I have sold several cars on eBay and it has never let me down yet - thanks bidders!

Next Suzuki SX4 spotted again

Wed, 05 Sep 2012

Thanks to a sketch of the Suzuki S-Cross concept, we can already see the styling direction that the next-generation SX4 will take, and Suzuki is still hard at work on the production version of the car as evidenced by this latest batch of spy shots. These photos look almost identical to those captured back in July, but we see a little more detail at the rear of the car and get a better idea of the next SX4's proportions.
With the baggy camouflage lifted up at the rear of this prototype, we can see that the SX4 replacement has a very Mazda-chic look to it with downward-angled taillights that stretch into the liftgate. Aside from this, the big news is that we're finally getting a sense of the new SX4's size. Suzuki's press release attached to the Paris-bound S-Cross sketch said that the SX4 replacement would be growing to the compact segment rather than being a subcompact like the current car. Recent reports indicate that the next version of this car will be sized closer to the Grand Vitara, and in these pictures, you can definitely see how much the car has grown.
Still unknown is when we can expect to see the production version of the new SX4, or what will be inside it (available turbo power?), but hopefully Suzuki will not delay things like it did with the Kizashi and its numerous concepts.

Suzuki previews new S-Cross compact CUV ahead of Paris debut

Fri, 10 Aug 2012

Despite having one heck of a lackluster presence here in the United States, Suzuki still manages to do well in other markets. That in mind, the automaker continually releases new products and concept cars at international auto shows that aren't destined for U.S. consumption, but this might not be one of those times.
The aging SX4 crossover is in need of replacement, and if Suzuki is still committed to selling passenger cars in the States, something fresh like this S-Cross concept could be just the ticket. Suzuki has, after all, confirmed that the S-Cross will eventually make its way into production.
We have no other details to divulge about the S-Cross, except that it's a small crossover concept and that it will make its public debut at the Paris Motor Show in September. Suzuki says that the S-Cross has a "Emotion x Quality x Aerodynamics" design theme that uses "distinctive dynamic lines that start on the front bumper, sweep across the doors, and continue to the rear of the body." No offense, Suzuki, but we've heard that before.

Incentives aid smooth Suzuki wind down

Tue, 04 Dec 2012

American Suzuki is continuing to offer buyers substantial incentives even as the company winds down operations. Those looking to nab a new Suzuki vehicle will find rebates of between $500 and $2,000 and zero-percent financing for up to 72 months as dealers look to liquidate inventory following the automaker's filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection last month. The strategy is working so far. Last month saw Suzuki sell a total of 2,224 vehicles, up 22 percent compared to the same time period in 2011. The Japanese manufacturer says it will continue the incentives through December.
Suzuki had around 5,000 units in dealer inventory in the US when it went into bankruptcy protection, with an additional 1,500-1,700 vehicles headed to dealers at that time. The company says it will continue to honor warranties moving forward using its current dealer network. Most of the dealerships will become Suzuki service and parts stores after American Suzuki shutters car sales in the US.
