I'd venture to guess that the smoke under the hood was the D.I. cassette... this is a common problem. Typically the cassettes go 100K mi. or so but a few fail very early on in life - and it usually happens on start-up or hard acceleration. It's < 10 min. to fix this but a huge inconvenience when they burn out.
Not sure about the reverse thing... Is it auto or manual? If manual it sounds like the synchros. weren't meshed up. This can be corrected by either releasing the clutch to spin things around a bit or by shifting to another gear and then back to reverse. The good news is, this problem goes away when as the car gets broken in. Not sure about auto...
