Not getting my smart for a LONG time unless I get lucky on the orphan list, but I was wondering the same thing... how do you find your little car in a parking lot with all the vans and SUVs out there?

Thanks for posting the pic, I laugh every time I see it.

Ruby. As long time drivers very small cars we found It's best to line up your rear bumper with the car next to you when you park.

People tend to put shopping carts behind you, or even try to turn around in the space left if you pull in to far.

Parking all the way back will help prevent door open damage as well. Plus Smartie is easier to find. A2Jack.

Hi Dana,

Use the "Panic" button, your car will sound off and flash it's lights. I was watching how the SJ Smart Center staff people were finding cars they wanted by pushing the "panic" button. I did the same thing when my car was parked in the Smart Center's parking lot.
