BMW Zentrum

A few other city photo blogs have posted photos of cars today. So in that sprite I am posting a photo I took at the BMW Zentrum. Because Greenville is the headquarters for BMW North America they built an automotive museum. In addition they have a very large manufacturing plant in Greenville where they build the Z4 Roadster and X5 SUV.
In fact I drive a BMW Roadster when I am not walking to work. My car is shown in the photo on the left.

My wife and I are discussing our next car purchase. At present we have it narrowed down to a Mercedes Benz or a Hybrid.

However Eric, at the Paris Daily Photo site , posted a photo of a Smart Car today. This lead me to do some research and I have found a concept Mercedes-Benz bionic (some call it the Mercedes smart car). Do you think I can talk my wife into a Mercedes Smart Car? Could you talk you spouse into a Mercedes Smart Car?
