Smart Car in US

Why wait for 2008? DaimlerChrysler won't be bringing the Smart car to the U.S. until 2008. Zap! a company out of Santa Rosa, CA www.zapworld.com ZP(NYSE) already is selling 100% street legal smart cars. It also sells a 100% electric city car the Xebra and is planning on bringing the Obvio! 828, a hybrid manufactured in Brazil that can run off of any combination of gasoline or ethanol in 2007

Or, come to Canada and buy one, and import it. They seem to be quite popular and abundant here.

My impression is that you run into difficulty if you import through Canada, since the emissions retrofit may not be up to U.S. standards. That's why some guy profiled by the Baltimore Sun said his Canadian Smart cars are shelved in a warehouse in California.
