Thank you everybody so much for the response! I'm always available by email: ngilleste@niello.com

I think we're going to offer a couple of choices here. smart just provided us with labor times for the various services, so those exact figures will be available soon. We are working to put something together that will meet smart's nation-wide pricing policy. My guess is that it will be somewhere around $150 or so for a 1 year service (10k miles)- this is not a price quote- just from my experience, a guess for the wondering public

Thanks Nick I have a feeling that lots of people are wondering just what they are getting into here $80 oil changes $30 oil filters and $7 drain plug gaskets seem just a tad excessive. I would be most thankful for any information you can give us. Thanks
