I guess I'll still be getting a Passion as that is way over my budget.

Brabuses make 2% of the smart production worldwide, so we would be talking about 500 cars/year here.

It said in the email that the Brabus is debuting in Feb. 2009. It sounded to me that they are only available to those currently holding reservations while have not been invited to configure yet like you and me. So, you will be waiting in another (shorter) line after you switch to Brabus. Chances are you will get one in Feb. Does it sound even better?

The BRABUS will have a big mouth and shiny new trousers, but the 70 HP engine, so it's all show and no go.
