The smart center Bloomington, of Bloomington, Minnesota achieves sales milestone by selling the 10,000th Smart car in the United States market. In August of 2007 Canada’s smart division of Mercedes-Benz Canada delivered it's 10,000th Smart Car. Their important sales milestone happened just before the Smart's third anniversary in Canada.

With 16,378 U.S. sales through August, Smart is on pace to exceed its goal of selling 25,000 vehicles this year.

Daimler reports demand to exceed its ability to make them fast enough. The reservations process was limited to private buyers, no dealers or company sales and the $99 reservation fee is not transferable, but is refundable. Daimler AG chief executive officer Dieter Zetsche says his company has more initial orders for Smart cars in the United States than it can build. Mr. Zetsche CEO said they have received "more than 30,000 down payments" from buyers in advance of the car's U.S. introduction in January.
