Anyone want an orphan

My wife and I now have two Smart's (a black passion coupe and a silver passion cabrio), problem is the original one we ordered almost a year ago is now due in any day.

We have decided to orphan the car, since there is no need to have three Smart cars. If anyone is interested you can contact the Winston-Salem Smart Center and ask for Tom or Lee (336-760-4580). Either one of them will know the car you are asking about

It is a Yellow with Black Tridon and Black interior Passion Coupe. It should have power steering and the instrument pods all for a hair over $15K.

Probably one of the final opportunities to get a new yellow smart.

I called the dealer today and the yellow one is sold...Less than 24 hours from turning it down. However, sounds like they have some other orphaned vehicles on this latest shipment.

Yes, mine was one of them... We kept our orphan we bought from Winston-Salem in March 08, a black/slvr/red passion. The orphaned car was a fully loaded, all options, 08 passion, white/slvr/leather. The car was due in the early November shipment.

I am getting the reservation fee back and putting it back down for either a 2010 or 11 or whatever. Hoping to get either an electric, hybrid, diesel or CNG car. Maybe one of the above will be offered by then.
