Selling a used car for me is different than selling a reservation number. I wonder how smart USA will react?

Extra set of panels and everything; pretty swift move. This person obviously had their ducks lined up and was #1 on the list. Gotta give 'em credit.

I heard rumor that the red passion on ebay (in Miami) is actually a Canadian car.

What a huckster, "this car was on TV" Wow, that certainly makes it worth more. Maybe it should go in a museum, the only thing worse will be if this guy actually gets some sucker to pay top dollar.

Hmm. "Every option"... yet a lack of fogs.

This must be the guy that I listened to on a podcast of The Truth About Cars. Gee, I didn't here him mention that he was going to unload the car asap. He was talking about how cool it was...guess the lure of the almighty buck is stronger.

Rlove I really can't understand why you care so much about a guy making a legitimate dollar...really it confounds me...

Spdickey... just a mater of semantics... none of the pre sales were selling a "place in line" thay all clearly were selling a $15,000 dollar car for what ever over $20,000 they could get...nothing is different with this guy.. a car is going to be sold for more money then it was bought for... that is all

My how you guys must rankle when some one like me offers a used $1000 dollar Ham radio for auction and it sells for 3 times the brand new cost... Especially weird that they could go and buy the brand new item**-they are available... I and the guy selling a Smart are not the bad guys or dummies... it is the idiots that will spend anything to have it that are the curiosity....

You fellows crack me up....
