Used 2009 smart ForTwo for sale

Known George for many years. I’ve done body works for 30 years . Let me school some of y’all for bashing for not knowing what your talking about. These cars are totaled out by the insurance for a reason not because they enjoy doing it. If you go and buy salvage car and rebuild it most times your going run into stuff that your not aware of. That’s just how it works whether it’s salvage or working in dealership. If your buying a salvage car thinking well I’ll put a light on it and bumper on it and away I go then in most cases your definitely wrong.Now you can save money buying salvage cars and rebuilding.But expect the unexpected because they are salvage cars totaled for a reason and don’t talk s—t when u get the unexpected. If your looking for new car then go buy one at a dealership with no issues because in the rebuilding world you got spend little money

This is my 2nd one, 1st was used for a 150 mile + a day 5 day week commute to the DC area. It's in it's element for local driving, parking, mpg, fun to drive(especially with convertible). If you install a Scan Gauge and use the manual paddle shifters, mid 50 mpg is easy. Interstate driving keeps the mpg to around 42 +. 1st one had some issues, but incompetent mechanics were most of the problems. Replacement a/c hoses run $1200 each (2)does require Premium fuel, I alternated between mid & prem. each tank on the 1st. one. Get an extended warranty, any major repairs may have to be done by MB dealer.

Amanda and her team are exceptional in customer service!!! Alfredo was easy to work with and my daughter's and my experience buying her a car was Amazing!!!

Bought new and has been 100% reliable. The Brabus edition is more sporty with sport tuned suspension offset wheels 17" wide rear 15" front . Porsche style dual exhaust. Drive it daily. I change the oil every 10k miles full synthetic. Air cleaner every year and run premium fuel. I add Marvel Mystery oil (4 oz) to the gas a few times a month and that's it. Runs just like new. Love the car. When it hits 200k I'll buy another one.

There is a website called evilution It goes over many smart car maintenance and known concerns even for my 2009 smart car for two passion. Get oil changed, tires are low cost to change. Gas is great 40 mpg. One Achilles of the car is the clutch actuator, but it isn’t broke it just needs to be cleaned and lubed with new gear grease not spray which only is a temporary fix.park car on ramps in park, make sure extension arm on actuator isn’t engaged (park position) , spray paint three bolts to try to put back in same position which in park should be snug against clutch plate in clutch housing , disconnect negative battery terminal, gently unsnap sensor and unscrew three bolts and remove actuator, remove and cleans rubber boot with soap water, cover sensor port so don’t get wet with towel, take apart actuator using hex screwdriver or star screwdriver, brake cleaner let dry, the. spray some white lithium oil in actuator generously , then apply generous gear lube in the drywall gun tube everywhere , hex actuator back together, lube tip clutch plate contact arm that makes contact with clutch plate in clutch housing, put rubber boot back on, screw back in same position snug against clutch plate for resistance to start, screw three bolts , connect sensor, connect negative terminal battery, start up will get wrench symbol till resets, move forward and back and check see it gears are shifting by moving a little, may not start make sure push arm to have snug tension of actuator extension arm on clutch plate in housing , without this tension may not start. Resistance or tension is required to start so tip must contact clutch plate. Note: if arm is extended when removed the spring will shoot it out and to start it you need to get tip shrunk from extended position which would can only do by starting car but you can’t start it because actuator does not fit back in position if extended and resistance extension is not recognized. so one person must attempting to start car while 2nd person connects sensor and doesn’t bolt three bolts in but holds actuator in hand and 2nd person under car pushes actuator against tip to simulate EXACT resistance tensiOn on extended arm to start, you are guessing on force, I used brick to push squeeze arm in corner squeezing tip into solid metal by pushing tip in corner then at same time have other person try to start car, guessing how much force it takes, , you have to replicate the exact tension of plate in housing to get car to start and extension arm to shrink to park position, once car starts th not will go to shrunk position and fit in park position in default position , used park brake , hold brakes on start for safety of second person, took like 40 tries and a dead battery from failed starts but will start then let run until it shrinks arm, once arm is shrunk then install in snug position or position spray painted before removed. Also, Spark plugs I unscrew and use snug rubber house to pull out from tight fit, oil changed at shop, check tires once a month, check fluids , battery is under passengers foot carpet, engine is in back hatch just lift carpet, some fluids in front engine, rear tail lights easy to replace just pinch lose. Two complains: seat do not extend back to lay back and take a nap after a long day, car is loud on highway noise but keeps up, other notes car makes a whine noise on start up for 30 seconds or 90 seconds seems normal. Gas mileage great, which could put bigger tires on for a farm or rough country roads but can cut plastic away from tire well I guess. Low tire center on f gravity is okay but need farm option. Mercedes dealership is a stealership but smart car forums, rock auto parts, and website evilution is great to do it yourself . Plastic exterior is forgiving on dents, use 3m to remove glue, use stickers to cover any blemishes.paint holds well since plastic.

Went in to visit this dealership and was extremely satisfied. John is great to work with and is extremely friendly. I test drove a truck nd there was no pressure to purchase or anything like that. I would highly recommend that you purchase from here.

This little car was great for local travel. It had great safety features. Once on a recall, we were give a brand new Mercedes as a free loaner. The Smart Car was more comfortable.

I've purchased a number of cars from George at East Coast Auto Source over the years. I would recommend the following if you're looking at buying a salvage/repairable vehicle: 1) Choose your Auto Body mechanic FIRST prior to going to purchase a vehicle that is salvage/repairable and pay him for his time even if you DON"T BUY. Paying him $100.00 for his time might save you thousands of dollars in the long run. Take him with you to look at the vehicle you are interest in. A mechanic can identify hidden damage and cost that you as a buyer can not identify. 2) Get an estimate on parts from George (or any other salvage yard) as this is added cost to what you are actually paying for the vehicle. 3) Get a time frame on repairs from your mechanic: example: is his shop out 3 months on repairs? six months on repairs? 4) Add the cost of the vehicle, parts, repairs and time to fix and compare this amount of money and time to the same model vehicle that a dealership or private owner has for sale and analyze if the repair of the salvage vehicle is worth it....sometimes it is: sometimes it's not. I've never had any trouble getting titles, bill of sale, or vehicles shipped upon purchase, etc from George. As indicated, have some knowledge of salvage repairable vehicles and get estimates up front and your repair experience will be much better.

Had it for 5 years, not a single repair besides regular oil changes and brake pads. Parts are not expensive at all. Fun car and great on gas

Fantastic experience buying my car. I bought a few parts for my car as well while I was there. I will most certainly be back!!

Louis was a great salesman!! He did a wonderful job with getting me approved with my alright credit! Appreciate them to the fullest! Very well recommended for future purchases!

Mike S. Was great to work with. I bought the car over the internet. Very smooth and easy transaction. Would do business again with this dealership. Thanks Mike

We’ve bought our last 6 vehicles from Nissan of Muskogee. Miles Jackson (salesman) is friendly and very knowledgeable. He’s always helpful finding the perfect car that fits our family’s need. I love the no stress and non pushy attitude of Miles and the overall staff at Nissan of Muskogee.

Anthony Menendez is great. So was Simon and Jay. It didn't take all day for a sale. Very professional.they did great customer service I would come again

Leah was very friendly and helpful and we really like the little Fiat that we purchased from him.
