I have スマート車.com (SmartCar.com). I would guess that スマート is "smart".

DomainDialect, do you think this might have any possible trademark problems?

I can't see how スマート would be a problem to the best of my knowledge. I have had スマート車 since June of '06 and it has gotten no traffic or interest. I have considered this a generic term, however. The car company at some point may have other ideas. :)
