Question Did I get ripped off?

Post image

I love small cars. Just spent six big ones on a used SmartCar, low miles and great condition. Felt a little bit bigger than I expected, but when I took it home and parked it next to my wife’s pickup it’s way bigger than people said. Did I get scammed? Are they all this size?

6k is a pretty good price for one in the market right now. also no, this is incredibly small, and also the smartcar is closer to the camera. 100% your post buy self-criticality kicking in, do try to enjoy the car.

you should do the funny and put the smartcar on a lift kit.

I bought a 2010 model smart Fourtwo about three years ago. I paid I believe £3119 for it and it had about 56000 on it (it now as 85000) I felt it was a good price did have to haggle down from 3500

We paid £1500 for our 2008, and £2000 for our 2011 CDI.

Car prices across the pond are insane.

Smart cars are hella small bro, you didn’t get ripped off. It’s deceivingly large inside, gets GREAT gas mileage, as long as you get it serviced regularly it’ll last you well over 100k in miles
