Found this from earlier this year: "Tom Goldie and his son, Christopher, have launched the independent magazine Smartimes. They will produce the magazine from their office at 625 Southport Road. The magazine receives all of its content from Smart Car enthusiasts scattered around the globe.

The Goldies said they are speaking with representatives from Smart Car USA about the possibility of supplying each new Smart Car owner with a copy of the magazine.

“It's really a great time to be a part of a niche magazine dedicated to one of the world's most exciting automobiles,” said Christopher Goldie, who serves as editor-in-chief. “Our hope is to be a forum for Smart Car owners to share their enthusiasm. And since Spartanburg is our home, we have the added bonus of introducing the city to a worldwide audience.”

However, there must be some problem with the magazine as evidenced when you follow this link: http://smarttimesmagazine.com/

The actual website is still active: www.smartimesmagazine.com/
Thanks for the comeback on my inquiry. I have written some articles for them before, but there has been nothing as far as contact ever since their first edition. I have spoken with other smart owners who enjoyed the magazine, but had the same question as I have as to where has it gone? When you try to make contact with them you never get an answer.

Some say the magazine failed because of the recession...The unemployed say the magazine failed because of the depression...Smart Times did not get a bailout.... LOL
