The Smart Car had a 12 month plus waiting list!
Eventually I decided that what I wanted was a small diesel which are not available yet, maybe in 2010... So I needed a "till then car." Eventually we found a Saturn Vue which I really liked, a 2005 manual transmission. The car gets between 26 & 29 mpg and is still big enough to haul bags of feed. I am very happy with this car, and it's performance is not that bad...
Today I found the first thing I don't like with the car. (OK, SUV)
I know, I know! That is what I get for buying an SUV! But I don't feel THAT bad, the mileage is good for a bigger vehicle, and we really do have the need for it. We will be getting a second vehicle which is a lot more efficient at some point, but for now, I love my car, except for the windshield thing!

My sister had a Saturn Vue for a while and really loved it. She traded it in for a minivan now that she has three kids, but she still misses it. I drive a Saturn also, but mine's a small SL-2. Hope you enjoy your new car!
