Smart Survey

I received an email from my dealer (American Service Center in Arlington, VA which sells only MB) asking me to complete a two question survey: (1) have you heard of the Smart?; (2) If so, would you buy one?

I guess they are trying to decide whether to sell them or not.

Has anyone else had this experience?

good news!

Do smart fans in the USA a favour and say you'd buy one even if you wouldn't.

The test marketing in Canada occurred in 2002, and we're just getting the fortwo cdi cabriolet and coupé now.

It is hopeless in the US, Mike! They even have to pull the hatchback off the market, let alone Smart...

Bummer

Well we are super-happy to get the smart up here. The waiting lists are ENORMOUS, they way underestimated the interest level....mine comes in about 5-6 weeks, finally!
