Reserve?

[Sbrodacz]

Hello everyone. I'm new to the forum. My girlfriend and I test drove a smart car last Wen, and decided today we wanted to try and reserve one. Does anyone know usually how long the wait is? They told us 2 weeks or more.

I would say between 10 -12 months. Could be sooner if they increase production.

, try something like 11 or 12 months or more...if you are wanting one quick and have not reserved your best option would to look for orphans...good luck!

11 or 12 months? Why would they tell me 2 weeks or so?

Who knows why, you should go back and ask them why they lied to you...if you can get them in 2 weeks, order me 5 please

smart center Portland's wait is currently running 10-12 months like the other folks have said. Not sure why they told you 2 weeks.

Are you guys talking about the 2nd dairy list? They said 75% of the people that order them actually buy them and this list it so for the 25% that are not purchased.

Few months after putting $99 for a reservation, you'll get to confirm your vehicle's specifics (color, options). Then smart USA will send your order to Smartville, France for construction. Once your car arrives, you have 30 days to strike a deal with your dealership. If you refuse, your car will become an orphan (fallout in smart USA lingo). Once a car becomes an orphan, the dealer can sell it (her) as is, or add profitable options... Most dealers have long list of potential buyers who are ready to get their hands on orphans.

What is a 2nd dairy list?
Does it have to do with ice cream?

2nd dairy list is what you guys are calling an orphan.
