Smart car, the hard top is $3,000 less than the convertible price shown. Salesman said all the cars on the lot are pre-sold, gotta place the refundable $99 down first, three month waiting list right now. Claimed it's the highest Non-Hybrid MPG in America. Also said who ever said it's scary on the highway has not driven one.

He asked if I wanted to buy one; I said if MPG were the main thing I was looking for, I'd consider it. For the price of the convertible I could get a used Porsche Boxster with a 100,000 miles on it (2001 Boxster-S) for the same money. He said quote; "Nice car, that would be nice" before he could catch himself. I liked his candor.

Don't know why they needed four sales people on the floor if they are all pre-sold. Claimed a lot of snow birds were coming back from Florida soon and will be picking up their ordered cars here in Michigan.
