Hi Ben,
I geddit: there’s a red, white, and blue one! I want a white one (for it’s going to be cooler inside), especially if they make it into a hybrid or an EV! This should do better mileage than a Smart, have front wheel drive, and fit 3 adults (and maybe 1 kid), too!

Darin didn:t get it, he is silly.
I have seen more iQs on the roads here than Smarts, which I guess makes sense, even though Smart has been on the market longer. I am not sure where the Smart dealership is because I havent seen any on the Mercedes lots but I am sure it is close by.

Now if you'd posted a photo of a red, white and red one and said "Canada" in the title, I might have gotten it. Maybe.

Hi Benjamin,
I'm curious about some of the details: the hoods on all 3 cars appear to be cracked open?
Can you tell a reason why?
Does the rear trailing edges look like they have crisp edges; as in like the new Prius? One picture I saw had a small "wedge" on the back of the rear quarter window -- is there something like this on these iQ's?
Any other pictures you can take (from various angles) would be very welcome! |

Ill get pictures next time I see one. These are like 20 miles from my home.
I think the dealership keeps the hoods cracked for easy checking on stuff so they dont get inside the car and get the interior dirty

Hi Benjamin,
I found a picture of the current iQ ("cubed") that shows the wedge on the back of the rear quarter window:
(click on picture for link)
I want one! Now! Please?
