New kid = new smart. My beloved fortwo had the paddleshift option but my forfour (1.3 s/touch) doesn't, and I miss it! I've read various bits about adding it to the fortwo and roadsters, but not the forfour. I'd presume it's pretty much the same, but do you know more?

Re: Anybody Added Paddleshift?
Fourfour has a different gearing altogether so I would not have thought it would be that simple -
Re: Anybody Added Paddleshift?
I know of one owner whose dealer didnt order the paddleshift when they made his new forfour and they couldnt retrofit it and had to buy his £15k forfour back from himOriginally posted by Tim_in_brightonComment

Re: Anybody Added Paddleshift?
That's weirde, cos it's an easy mod on the roadies and fortwo's... It is very different on a forfour? I know they improved the gearchange somewhat (from what I have heard anyway)Comment

Re: Anybody Added Paddleshift?
Yer but without starting one of those arguments , the fortwo and the Roadster share many simalarites where as the Forfour is a totally different car altogetherComment

Re: Anybody Added Paddleshift?
The guy who has that car is on the smart club. He ordered a forfour 1.1 with every option, colour satnav, sunroof, auto with paddles, leather. Over £15k, yet it arrived without paddles. The dealer had to buy it back off him and ordered another of the correct spec.
So if there was a way, they'd have done it rather than being stuck with a 2000mile old forfour with £5k of options.Comment

Re: Anybody Added Paddleshift?
My forfour should have been about £15.5K if we had paid full whack new!
We keep meaning to try my wheel with paddles on Gav's car (without!) to see if they do work!
