Window sticker pic? anyone?

[paroyboy]

Been trying to find a picture of a smart window sticker. Curious to see if it mentions "50 state legal emissions"? If I buy a smart out of state and bring it into PA, starting with 2008, there has to be a CARB sticker on the car somewhere or the 50 state thing on the Window sticker or Certificate of Origin. Anyone have a scan of their sticker or have seen the CARB sticker anywhere? Forgot to look when I was at Germantown smart yesterday.

Since I had reserved mine, it did not have a window sticker. Perhaps some one who had bought an orphan would have a window sticker?

I have a picture I've taken of a window sticker on a Smart. I don't own my car yet, but I have a picture of the window sticker I took of a demo car I've driven. PM me your e-mail address and I'd gladly e-mail you the picture I have of it.

Just checked our window sticker - nothing on there about emission standards.

smart USA has this in the tech specs: "Federal emissions BIN5 / ULEV (Cal.)"

A monroney sticker is required to be presented at point of purchase with a new vehicle in the US - there are (rarely enforced) laws regarding this.

It wasn't with the rest of your paperwork when you picked the vehicle up?

Pssst - says vehicle reserved, not picked up yet.

Here's a random window sticker pic...



Probably too small to read, but I didn't wanna post a massive image in the forum, so here's the link to the original size file. Very easy to read this one...

Edit: Come to think of it, this sticker is likely what you seek. You'll find it under the rear carpet just aft of the engine cover...

Don't know if this helps the OP or not:

Two sets, or Tiers, of emission standards for light-duty vehicles in the United States were defined as a result of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. The Tier I standard was adopted in 1991 and was phased in from 1994 to 1997. Tier II standards are being phased in from 2004 to 2009.

Within the Tier II ranking, there is a subranking ranging from BIN 1-10, with 1 being the cleanest (Zero Emission vehicle) and 10 being the dirtiest. The former Tier 1 standards that were effective from 1994 until 2003 were different between automobiles and light trucks (SUVs, pickup trucks, and minivans), but Tier II standards are the same for both types.

These standards specifically restrict emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), particulate matter (PM), formaldehyde (HCHO), and non-methane organic gases (NMOG) or non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC). Confusingly, the limits are defined in the mixed-system unit of grams per mile (g/mi).

Thanks. I'll take a copy of that to the notary tomorrow and see if that will satisfy the requirement.
