BRABUS was put on the US market today and offered to reservation holders ! I have been waiting for something like this to happen, but the news gets even better. When I changed my reservation to a BRABUS they allowed me to configure today. Subject to appoval of course. But hey at least I am now configured. And for a BRABUS - what a deal !

Hi Scott,
Curretly the USA 2009 Brabus has been only offered to reservation holders who had not yet configured a car. They did this by an e-mail invitation on October 23rd. The offfer was only open from the 23rd to Nov 2nd. You had to ask to have your current reservation for standard smart swiched to a Brabus. There was a limited number available so I won't find out untill on or after Nov 2nd if my reservation for a Brabus was accepted. I am hoping for the best. If you were not a reservation holder you would not know about the USA Brabus offer. I hope this answers your question.

That sucks....Good liuck and thanks for the info.

That's great ! I heard there were only 1500 available so they sold 100 more then they had planed. I still don't know if I am one of the lucky 1600 or not. No e-mail from smart USA yet. Got my fingers crossed though. I think if they had offered more, they could have sold every one of them. No shortage of demand over here. If I don't get offered a BRABUS, I will still be happy with the Passion. Great to know the demand is out there. We are one step closer to being offered a turbo overhere. Thats if the USA will let it in.

Am I the only one in the 451 smart community that has a 2009 Brabus on order ?

I've just gotten (2/09) my 90 day email for my Brabus. A friend has gotten his too - we are in the Washington DC Metro area.

Hi Aquabarrel, I am in Minnesota and in about eight days or less my Brabus should be arriving at my dealer here in Bloomington. It arrived at the Baltimore, MD port on 2/15/09 and is on its way by car carrier, heck it could be here on Saturday, that would be 2/21/09. It went very fast after the 90 day email. On 3/1/09 it will be one year since I put down my $99.00 reservation. I had expected to wait 14 months to get a smart, but I think I speeded things up when I converted my reservation to a Brabus. I would have rather not taken possession in the winter, but oh well what ever happens happens. Good Luck on your order. Things should start to go faster now.

But, now, be prepared - you life is going to get suddenly .....happier!

Bruce -- If it works maybe I will post a happy photo of myself. Or forget about my photo, post a photo of the smiling Brabus instead.

Either way, I will be smiling for you and your (BRABUS) smartie! I am excited for you!! We had a terrific meet-up today with the Ventura County folks... so cool ..... I haven't seen any BRABUS smarts on the roads yet!! Oh, BTW, those Ventura County folks have some of the most beautiful countryside in America to cruise.... Believe me, I used to cruise it in my hot air balloon..... perhaps I'll send pix..... but I digress.... I hope your baby comes soon!!

It happened. My nightmare. My Smart car, Maxwell, was hit.
On my way home from work on Wednesday, January 13th, I was in a line of cars waiting for a red light (I was 5th or 6th in line) when I looked into my rearview mirror and saw a car coming up…
I've given out more than 200 of the pamphlets, but my dealer says they have less than a 1% return on those. It's going to take a lot more than viral videos on YouTube and current owners handing out info cards to get the kind of traffic that a well-t…
i'm seeing more smarts out and about as i drive here. my dealer has been calling me now and then, wanting me to trade my '08 for a new '09 or '10, seems they aren't moving as fast these days. i am getting tired of manually cranking the windows of my…

Chris;
Have an MPG check done on your car by the dealer (free if you're inside the warranty). You will sit in the SMART showroom reading a book or magazine while the car is taken to Mercedes for the test. At the same time, they will upgrade the tra…
TnPD;
Please see my reply to Syna. What temperature is your A/C set to? Originally, I never paid attention to the Temperature setting, and just used the black A/C switch to turn the A/C ON/OFF (it has a little red light when ON). One hot Tampa day,…
Syna,
Then we're both suffering from an over-active imagination (hehe). My Smart is a 2008 Passion and has the same mileage as your car. I can also swear that it has more pep now than when I bought it. I agree with all your MPG figures, and have ma…
