I think pauly called them last week
My Smart car also discharged in Baltimore port Dec 13th 2007.
But it does not mean its still there, most likely moved to a Mercedes processing facility.

Also I received an e-mail from Gary from the Smart Center Alexandria on Jan 17th.

No cars have arrived yet, and we are not open yet. Both Smartusa and Smart Center Alexandria are working hard to be able to open for business.

There is another thread tracking the Alexandria Smart Center news
Central Virginia Delivery News

It is rather frustrating while some dealers are open and delivering cars, while we are still waiting for ours to open.
