Take several deep breaths, prepare your best attire: tomorrow, you'll be a star!
Enjoy!

And don't worry about the car: it'll do its job fine. Just put it in "D" and go, go, go...

That's really exciting! I wish you the best of luck for tomorrow. Post pictures please. I'm really curious if they have infact changed the roof window shade.

Not the shade color. The shade mechanism. Supposedly it has been changed because so many people that had the 2008 model had trouble with it.

OK SPDYII i can do that......aren't you going to get yours soon..?
I know you got your VIN#, but that doesn't really help us in the southern regions of the USA as far as shipping is concerned though, and i believe that when my rep told me mine wasn't in the Monday delivery she knew better, its just to keep us on tenterhooks, now my original rep would have been up front with me......but its water under the bridge now.......hope you get yours sooner than you expect......

Thanks Yellowpassion.

There is a very slim possibility that I will get mine later this week. It is more likely that I will get it next week. The dealer said yesterday that they got 21 smarts in on Saturday and none of them were mine. So I will have to wait till the next truck load. When every that is. It is getting harder to wait. I have been waiting as long as you have. I don't usually wait this long for anything.
