smart exhibits at Los Angeles Auto Show Nov

Nov 16-25 LA Convention Center.

Exhibiting no where near the Mercedes floor space. smart is pushed out into the hallway outside the West Hall. I'm sure it will fit!

Been to the last two Paris shows and smart was not located near MB nor was Mini located close to BMW. Myabach and RR were nor located near their lower class siblings either

Cool! Try and get some detail shots (tires, front service panel off, brakes, interior, etc) if they'll let you. Thanks!

I'm surprised they weren't relegated to the coat room.

In a way, being put out in the foyer may be a good thing. People going in that direction will encounter the smart first, and with a clear mind. Then when they get beyond to the high price spreads inside they will already have an image of what could be an alternative to the big buck stuff.

And on the way out they get another shot at it.

Hopefully they will be US spec cars. I can get all of that at the smart house much easier, but all the cars there are Euro spec and there are lots of those pics around the net.

I would not bet on them being US spec units.
