September  2007
 

Dear Valued Customer:
 

How quickly the summer months have come and gone!  Yet fall is one of the most exciting times in the car business because it’s typically when we begin to see a large rollout of new products.  In this newsletter you can read about several, including the Cadillac CTS, which introduces all-wheel drive for the 2008 model year.  The 2008 BMW 5 Series is a stunner!  With the new Night Vision technology and the Real Time Traffic Information System that updates you on traffic conditions while you’re en route, this is a vehicle makes practical sense for any time-efficient busy individual.  In addition, Jaguar is breaking new ground with the all new XF midsize sedan that will replace the S-Type model.  If you’re a fan of the Jaguar XK sports car then you will be ecstatic about this modern, edgy, new era of Jaguar cars.

2007 SAAB 9-3 Convertible: Stress Relieving Machine and Safest Convertible of the Year
Whether you’re soaking up on the sun while cruising down the highway or battling rush hour traffic, the Saab 9-3 Convertible is a four-wheel, stress-relief machine. This car was designed with the driver’s comfort in mind to turn even the most mundane ride into an experience to be relished.

The New 2008 Volvo V70
It’s hard to find a safe, family-friendly car that still retains a sporty look and comfortable ride. Let’s face it: Family-friendly and sporty usually don’t end up in the same sentence. But with Volvo’s new 2008 V70 Wagon, a mesh of the two makes for a fun driving experience and the piece of mind that you’ll be safe driving in your car.

Jaguar XF – The Future of Cars
Jaguar will break new ground with the arrival of its new XF Midsize Sedan. This much-anticipated arrival will replace the S-Type in Jaguar’s current line-up to bring a modern, edgy appearance and feel to Jaguar’s already impressive line-up.

Saab 9-5 Sedan vs. Audi A6
With the Saab “Summer Challenge” underway, Saab is determined to show drivers the exceptional difference when you drive a Saab versus the competition. In case you missed it, here’s an example. Look for our comparison of the Saab 9-7x versus the Lexus GX470 also featured in this newsletter.

The All-New 2008 Volvo XC70
With a new year comes new reasons for more traveling and, of course, more chances for encountering hazards on the road. But with the all new Volvo XC70, you won’t have to worry about getting to your destination. With so many safety features standard and the addition of so many new features, its no wonder driving the XC70 is so relaxing; even if the weather isn’t.

2008 Cadillac CTS
It starts with the basics: sophisticated suspension and a rigid platform. The new CTS is an evolution of the Sigma-based original, the STS. The engineering team kept the old CTS’s wheelbase, but used the wider track from the larger STS to fundamentally transform the car’s proportions.

MINI Cooper and BMW Hold Their Value More Than The Average Vehicle
A recent study done by Consumer Reports that ranks which vehicles are the best and worst in depreciation has shown that the MINI Cooper, BMW M3 and BMW 6 Series rank in the top 10 for best in depreciation. This means that these cars are more likely than others to retain value as time passes.

The Greener Your Car, the Greener Your Wallet
Let’s face it: With gas prices reaching all-time highs and no sight of prices dropping anytime soon, fuel economy is becoming one of the most important features in an automobile. When you’re looking for the best features in a car, it doesn’t hurt to add fuel efficiency to the list. That’s why we’re proud to announce that a couple of cars that Patrick sells made it into Yahoo’s Top 100 Greenest Cars of 2007.
