2 parts.
First, the link to the Smart ED website, which is different from the SmartUSA newsletter announcing it below. Please note- the Smart ED website is from Smart.com, and NOT SmartUSA. (i.e., it seems to be a UK link). I found it by googling "Smart ED" Rob _http://www.smart.com/-snm-0135035552-1185091095-0000009705-0000018600-11887 08264-enm-is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/mpc-uk-content-Site/en_UK/-/GBP/Smar t_NG_ViewStatic-PageComponent?NavigationID=urn%3Auuid%3A45095851-b073-55a5-b 8de-5b7ae3f1058b_ (http://www.smart.com/-snm-0135035552-1185091095-0000009705-0000018600-1188708264-enm-is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/mpc-uk-content-Sit e/en_UK/-/GBP/Smart_NG_ViewStatic-PageComponent?NavigationID=urn:uuid:450958 51-b073-55a5-b8de-5b7ae3f1058b) Smart Car of America Newsletter June Volume 47 ____________________________________ Greetings Oakleys' Daddy, Hopefully this newsletter will hush any fears about the future of the Smart Fortwo concerning Fiat's takeover of Chrysler. The bankruptcy protection and takeover will have no impact what so ever on the sales or service for the Smart Fortwo and will likely strengthen the entire Daimler group. As well, Roger Penske, (his group smart USA) the exclusive importer of the Smart Fortwo, has become the new owner of GM's Saturn brand. Mr. Penske disclosed he plans to concentrate on making electric cars as the main objective of the Saturn brand under his new ownership and silenced any rumors by saying Saturn dealers will not sell the Smart. Another bright spot for all of us is Smart USA's president David Schembri, reported that Smart USA will begin limited sales of the _smart ED_ (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1102602558728&s=568&e=001e2Mot2x2t8Oz4ZaiO0NY0I8yjh_WpmRnH F4w4ds5YXaPmo0CLxM_PUCNkHQiC1WoupUPe6AFjqMRwwBmhbidJWiSPkqBIvLKt660EfAk5i4zz yx57MQnTBo4f0aY0Yii_eusjQaxYa_sqBvWHlrSRARH0zf7hEuRXHUd-s8MxAM=) in selected markets in the second half of 2010 and a serious sales blitz in 2012 for the entire USA. With oil passing $70 a barrel both their proposals are music to many ears. It appears the Penske Group is ahead of the curve and is moving in the right direction. So, let's support them and keep our fingers crossed! How can you hypothetically purchase a _2009 smart pure_ (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1102602558728&s=568&e=001e2Mot2x2t8NNH4AgWDHX0XAz3mWiAY8bmuTMJQ9fSPHT OFxX2FcqzOHF7Bk4Y8x8UjfycwyAbGU2iLZitWVwmYG8vp97EYLLYm-8pltlV_-sICOAg3OdQt2x RINan7FxxQmyxy8dHIJUfVcC7OIn4y5VTn3cz3NruSSsTP5Ijbk=) for under $7,500? This brings us to the "cash for clunkers" legislation passed by the House. The legislation doesn't specify that your new vehicle has to come from a U.S. company or even an American factory. So buying a _Smart Fortwo _ (http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1102602558728&s=568&e=001e2Mot2x2t8Nx8BFy2ak7FOHhZ9jtScn7-k9ipFtrh06EdJ93nnnTHGd9ZZr6FtLXiOUkjuTT RxyUPv1h1yTMDpAep6IYTQPgYgZoYBjf4EiqnVGD_jknL3gjsfkAV3yOLC2v4kA6q4GW-tql5Kwp VpR4XOmJIyKvaS3vfxGK-MZBY4cO3LTsUQ==) with the cash for clunkers plan means you can qualify for a voucher for as much as $4,500 towards a new Smart car, but your old clunker has to go to the shredder. If passed the higher the mpg difference between old and new, the bigger your voucher.
