Interesting, I saw a Mercedes Benz North America Vice President at my local dealer here in Pennsylvania. He was driving a smart from dealer to dealer trying to gauge reaction. He also declined to answer my question about meeting DOT standards. (It was dealer registered for PA though).

Apparently the Smart is going to be sold by MB-Canada next year. That would be the first North American distribution through MB.

I was whatching legally blonde 2 at the cinema (I had to do it for the other half), and at the end they drove off in a smart cabriolet.
Now I know American films are full of product placement, and plenty of shots of the Audi TT.
But I am confused about the inclusion of the Smart, clearly driving in Washington. Is this to get Americans ready for the day when Smart does hit the streets of the USA? Was it to judge reaction?
