There's a Smart dealer a few doors up the road from us at work. Keep in mind that there is no storage space in the car at all. So you won't be able to use it for cons since I'm pretty sure you'd have costumes and stuff to bring. And it's only a two seater so that means you can't take a bunch of friends out either.
And it looks like death when driven on the road. Supposedly they are really safe...however, you are REALLY close to the front of the car when sitting in one. I've also seen them come pretty close to tipping over when going around a turn. (The husband was in the car with me and, literally, both of us held our breaths as the guy turned. Then we looked at each other and said "I totally thought that was going to tip over." )
I see them on the road a lot and I just wouldn't go near them. The Fit or the Yaris is better IMO.
