Racing Inspired

Today, Liz-Boeder custom designed racing stripes for one of our smart cars here at smart center of San Francisco. For anyone who doesn't know the infamous Liz Boeder (my mentor) she grew up with a racing history and you can pretty much ask her anything about Mercedes-Benz and she'll know it. She is also the one who has greatly inspired my test drives. For any of you who have been on one it will probably be your most memorable test drive you'll ever be on. There are few people who can top me and Liz Boeder is one of them. Beyond being a walking encyclopedia of Mercedes-Benz knowledge and history, she is also an artist. You can often view her work at her desk.

What makes Liz really special is she is also a smart car owner and enthusiast. She is an owner of the highly coveted Brabus edition. For those who are new to the smart world, the Brabus was only made in the US in 2008 and part of 2009. It is a beautifully designed car with a lot of great body kits and accessories in it. Her Brabus (named Natasha) is a silver convertible that she skillfully races around San Francisco. Soon you'll be able to recognize her because she is going to have Martini Racing inspired stripes on her car.

Liz's stripes inspired me to put so fun back into the smart car. Get our clients' creative juices flowing again and remember what smart is really all about, individuality. She was nice enough to custom make an original piece for us and for a future lucky client to have. You'll also have the joy of knowing that they were applied by hand by myself and Liz. A lot of love and care went into this car and it's new found uniqueness. Come on by and take a look at it and while you're at it take a test drive with us to.
