Waiting to hear from SMART.

I picked up my smart yesterday and love it!!! The Cary NC dealer is handling quite a few Virginia deliveries and they have received 10+ cars in over the last few days, of which several are going to be orphaned, according to the sales guy in Cary. He says they are currently receiving cars which should go to Va. Beach but they are handling delivery because VA Beach will not open till April.

Woohoo! I was the first one to get my Smart at Lindsay Smart in Alexandria, VA. I put in the rubber floor mats and cargo holder I pre-ordered. The alarm works great.

They weren't able to do the financing because they aren't set up for it yet. I did get temp tags And drove it home.

Congrats!
I spoke to them the other day (Gary and Raj) about an orphan list and they didnt know yet how they were gonna handle that. They said they had zero orphans in their first allotment of 33 cars!
Gary asked me to call him back in a few weeks. I think he needs to get his bearings! He said he has "never seen anything like this"...

If you are trying to get an orfan keep on them because they still don't know who wants there cars. I got my car but its still not mine. the temp tags are in there name not mine. I did put 220 miles on my car today. and the scanGauge I bought says I'm averaging 41.2 MPG The first 90 to 110 said around 33 MPG then It started getting better.

I just joined yesterday and I find it silly that there's no place for us in the DC-Metro Area and B-More Area to chat or get things going for meet ups or anything to do with our Smart neighbors.
