Detroit Auto Show: 2008 Smart ForTwo gets NA debut in Detroit

The first generation Smart ForTwo has popped up at the Detroit Auto Show several times over the years, mostly on the stands of various parts companies and tuners. However, no Smart has ever been officially available for sale from the manufacturer in the United States. That's all going to change this January though. The recently announced second generation ForTwo will be available in the US market, but not for another year. DaimlerChrysler will have a special stand for Smart opposite the Chrysler and Dodge displays in Cobo Hall next month although the cars on display will be Euro-spec models. The US spec versions will apparently be shown later in the year.
