| A friend of min has ordered a smart. The dealer has no idea when cars will come in. All I know after speaking with a lady who received her car is that it takes about a full year. She ordered her in march of 2007 and was given a call at the end of febuar and picked up her car on march 1st.
You pay $99 to register. They then send you info on customizing it. Finally they send one last email to make sure that the car is completely how you want it and make sure you still want to purchase it. From that last email there are about 3 months to wait before actually receiving the car.
If you are desperate, there is an orphan list you can be put on and as soon as a smart comes in that has been abonadoned you can go a see it and decide if you want to buy it.
These cars are all imported and made to order. They all randomly come in through Jacksonville and then disperse throughout the country the only thing that people do not know if which shipment will go where and when from Jacksonville.
