Just got off the phone...

I called my dealer today. Emily at Mercedes of Buckhead called back and said she had not received her list of reservations yet. She expected them today. She said she will call me to set up an appointment when the car is expected to arrive. She said there are some cars on the way from Jacksonville currently. I'll try and let everyone know when I get some more info.

Milwaukee leads the pack

3 calls so far; that dealer seems to be really on top of things. BTW, the last post I saw from crazy ludwig showed an 1173 with a 1700 PST time.

Hey Gang,

Club 1173 Member Info:
I got the dealer call from Leigh at smart center of Edison, NJ. My VIN# ends with 091928 for a blue/black passion cabrio. Expected delivery later next week. Leigh's been told the first deliveries are heading to the furtherest dealerships from the ports. My baby is sitting in Baltimore with 29 other reserved cars for her dealership.

Thank God, now I can breathe

Congratulations. It looks like Edison, NJ beats out Manhattan. I'm still waiting.

Woody,
Thanks. I'm so happy the wait is almost over. However, even if the smart is ready during the week, I'm not going to pick it up until Saturday. I refuse to take delivery at night because I want to see my smartie in all its glory and to be sure there is nothing wrong with it.

I hope your wait goes by quickly along with everyone else!!
Regina

Colorado 1173

Just found this forum; I'm happy to add my name to the list of Those Who Have Been Waiting Forever.

I've been terribly short to anyone who calls e today, who doesn't start with "Hi, this is ***** from smart...."

I reserved at 09:53 am (PT) on March 19, configured at 14:02 (PT) August 27, and would LOVE to have Einstein in my garage before the end of January.

Waiting.......oh, the antici..........

Spoons,

FYI I tried to call smart center Portland which is part of Kuni Auto Group. They have both Denver & Portland. The phone rings but the auto attendant answers and no extensions are working. I got word from Kuni Corporate that all of the smart "Smart" employees in Portland are busy moving into their building today.

In previous emails with Portland, I was informed that the Denver dealership will not be up and running until February.

Don't know if the cars could be shipped to another Kuni owned dealership in Denver before the store opens. Anyone out there have any info?
