It is amazing that during a time when most new car dealers are practically giving away the store to get you to buy one of their products, Smart dealers are not only demanding full MSRP but wanted some "butt kissing" in order to earn the right to "buy" from them. The truth is most Smart Car dealers need to "sell" a lot more than the people need to buy. It is about time they check back with reality.
