Full FeedSmart car gets 50% off parking rates
Hate parking in NYC? Me too. Smart has worked a deal for their diminutive Smart Fortwo with specific parking garages in the Big Apple getting them much cheaper rates. And it is not out-of-the-way parking garages either. The list includes Madison Square Garden, Javits Center, Times Square and Upper East Side; all places you want to be.
The garages knock 50% off the rates, bringing the payment from “you’ve got to be frickin kidding me” to merely “wow, thats a rip off”. New York, like most cities, is renown for its high parking prices. Personally, I think it is fantastic that smaller cars get a better rate than say a pimped Escolade with 22” wheels.
So far this year, Smart has delivered over 16,000 of their Euro-inspired Fortwo. The announced 2009 model makes some small changes and adds two new colors to the line up: Rally Red and Metallic Grey.
