My parents' insurance firm has never even heard of smart before, I guess I'll be their first!
The current family vehicles are listed like this:

03' GMC Env XL
98' NISS XE PKP

So the smart might look like:

09' SMAR 42 PSN

Oh why must people abbreviate EVERYTHING?

NJ Motor Vehicle Commission shows my car as Smart Pure and not Smart Fortwo.

WI DMV has it as "SMRT"
USAA has "2008 SMART FORTWO PURE/FORTWO PASSION "

Since it's all Caps you cant blame them for not making it smart

Odd, that. When I bought my Cabrio, I phoned in the VIN to my insurer to have them add the car to my auto policy and fax a binder to the dealership... The VIN read on their system as a Pure, even though since it's a Cabrio it's (obviously) a Passion - the MEEK in the VIN designates it as such. I had to call up the insurance company's head office to straighten that mess out.

Heh... A tiny little car with "MEEK" in the VIN. I find that somewhat chuckle-worthy.
