The SmartForJeremy (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/smart+forjeremy/) is a reality, a limited run of the haute couture Smart Fortwo (http://www.autoblog.com/smart/fortwo/) being announced at the Shanghai Motor Show (http://www.autoblog.com/shanghai-motor-show/). It has been toned down for production since we first saw it (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/11/29/smart-forjeremy-la-2012/) at last year's LA Auto Show (http://www.autoblog.com/la-auto-show/) but its signature flourish, the wings, remain. Instead replacing the brake lights, though, a smaller set of red-accented wings sit above them. The white interior remains, though the KITT-style wheel has been swapped for a traditional unit.
A collaboration between Mercedes-Benz (http://www.autoblog.com/mercedes-benz/) Cars Advanced Design Studios and Jeremy Scott (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Scott), it will come in white with white wheels and alubeam accents outside and in. Production starts this month and there will be three powertrain options all in the coupe bodystyle: a standard 55kW Smart ForTwo Electric Drive (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/smart+fortwo+ed|fortwo+electric+drive/) for 34,800 euro ($45,416 US), a more powerful 60kW Brabus (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/brabus/) Electric Drive for 40,600 euro ($52,985 US) or a 102-horsepower gasoline-engined Brabus for 33,333 euro ($43,501 US).
It's not for everyone, but if you want to live like it's Fashion Week every week look no further. The press release and video below (http://www.motorgen.com/2013/04/21/smart-shows-production-version-of-winged-forjeremy-w-video/#continued) can tell you more about it.Continue reading Smart shows production version of winged ForJeremy [w/video] (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/04/21/smart-shows-production-version-of-winged-forjeremy-w-video/)
