Don't think I've ever seen it apart from in the concept version.

Custom made maybe or a factory demo

Has it any other tweaks??

According to Smarts, Brabus did not make a single CDi ForFour.
This is possibly a one off show car, or from an employee at Smart who got hold of
some 'special' bits and customised or modified it to make it look like a Brabus.
We have seen similar cars before, some being 1.1 petrol and 1.3 petrol versions
with Brabus body kits and wheels/suspension. But none as modded as this one.

Usually the Brabus body kit is sprayed to match the main panel colours....but this
one has silver front and rear lower spoilers, but red body coloured side skirts !
Kind of odd that !

And the speedo/rev counter lack the one thing that would confirm this to be a
real 'Brabus'....the Brabus writing or wording in them is missing + the faces are silver,
whereas real Brabus ones are always black.

Don't get me wrong....I'm not knocking it, in fact I would be the last to knock this,
considering how I've tried to 'Brabus' my CDi.  I'll go so far as to say it's very nice...
a VERY VERY nice car in fact.  I love the red more than my blue one.  :-[

Shame Smart didn't bring out an end of run or special edition red Brabus ForFour...
they managed with the old 450 (ForTwo), and also the Roadster Coupé...the RCR.

Wowee!  That looks very nice indeed.

A red Brabus would indeed be nice - Perhaps I will one day get mine sprayed Ferrari Red.  So it'll go faster.

I love those seats, they look the business.  I think I'd actually prefer them to leather.

It looks amazing. And it's a 2004 model, so the state it's in is even more impressive. It has every single option on it, so it was a demo car most likely. Wonderful car, an absolute gem. Your friend's wife is very lucky!

First Forfour I've seen with the paddles.. I love the red with the silver trimmings. Think I'm in love *pushes computer table back down*. Is it still a 95?

Think you have the light/indicator and wiper stalks confused with
paddles á la Roadster.  Paddleshifts on a ForFour (if ever you see
or find one, cos they're very rare) are behind the spokes on the wheel
and do not stick out like those on a Roadie or 4.2, in fact they're
like big 2" square raised buttons rather than paddles.
