Smart Dealerships in CA

A MB sales rep told me that the Smart Cars be in dealerships sepaate from MB. Is that true?

Does anyone think the dealers will be marking up the SMART CARS as they did with the Miatta in '91 or the NSX? Will the be in such demand?

The will be sold through the Roger Penske owned United Auto Group. I believe they will follow the original Saturn formula - protected territory, no mark up, no discounts, no , take it or leave it.

In case with my dealership, the 2nd largest in the US, our Smart Car showroom will be a part of our MB dealership building... however, a wall will be put up to seperate MB from Smart.

I've read about the 20,000 deposits online, but what has it been like at the dealership level? Are there people coming in asking to see them yet? When do you get your first demo car?
