    I have(had) a 2013 Smart Car. Well, this guy tries to pass me while I am turning left and caused (I learned today) $5000 in damages to the vehicle. The worse part of it is is that I put a $700 android auto pioneer double-din in it and $300 focals.

    :(

    Yeah, I know. And I am going to do it. But I don't know how to get it out, and the guy that i know that does it really unreliable.

    That's what you get for hating Steph Curry (and for getting a Smart Car).

    You got the wrong guy. I don't hate Steph Curry. Never have. That was icecreamman or something like that.

    Mathematically, see if you can get it multiplied. Although that might just get you more of the same.

    I am so sorry, man. I know how you feel losing it. Sucks to lose something like that. Cars are very expensive.

    Glad you're okay. Google the radio. Should be pretty easy for you to do yourself.


    We just hit a deer tonight. Luckily, it was not my car, I was only a passenger, and everyone was fine. Except the deer.

    Also, this is one time where it pays to lease.

    Luckily I am not upside down on my loan. The payout will be just about as much as the amount I owe.

    So it shouldn't be a huge problem for me, except for the 2 grand or so that I've paid on this vehicle already that I've lost, but I guess that is condensation for the year that I've owned it.

    It's all good, except I want my radio and speakers out of that car.

    $300 Focal what? Amps? Speakers? Subs? Besides, $300 ain't much.

    Probably 2 front speakers. Focals are amazing.

    You really just need a screwdriver to take the deck and speakers out. I mean, literally just a screwdriver.

    What was your experience with the smart car, would you buy it again? I always wondered why anyone would buy that car...

    Just for simple driving, I assume. If you are alone and don't need much car space, the smart car is the way to go.
