Five years and eleven months to the day after we first saw smart cars in Amsterdam; after waiting for a variety of failed attempts to bring them to the US market that finally bore some fruit last year; and waiting for a Portland-area dealership to carry them; Oswego Luxury was the first to actually get them in stock, and they’ve got a lotful. We stopped by on our way to Phillip Kerman‘s house, and sat in one for the first time. It it hadn’t been for the torrential rain and the fact that Barbara couldn’t fit her purse into the model in the showroom, we’d have taken them up on their offer to take it out for a spin, but we’ll be back.
