Who got the largest list of early arrivals?

Just curious since you all know just about everything about anything smart. Which dealer got the largest list of customers on Thursday? Anyone know, or care??

has to be one of the LA dealers

I would have to agree.
They say 20% of all the cars are going to California...

My guess is San Diego or Phoenix who had over 1000 reservations back in December.

Beverly Hills now has 700+ reservations. 400 allocated.

What if funny about that 20% number is that Mini was over 25% California. It must have been the smart road shows that really peaked interest in the middle of the country.

I mean, Omaha and Louisiana dealers?

Any Chicago stats?

Thanks for all the knowledge, spdickey.

My money would be on Phx who I heard has about 1,400

This guess would be because California has more dealers so they will all get less cars.

[spdickey]

Less cars each, but there are a heck of a lot of smarts going into So Cal streets.

I wonder where the San Francisco dealer stands - next to London I swear this town has the most Minis per square foot, SF really is the perfect place for small cars.

I think smart usa wasn't ready for the universal interest either; they bet on both coasts but the car really has appeal across the board. BTW, no Louisiana dealer on the list yet; I think Jackson, MS will be the closest
