    So, is there anything special for people that actually bought cars at your dealership? Or is this a ploy to get me into a 2012 model?

    They're going to walk the lot, write down VINs, and void everyone's warranty.

    HaHa Not true! Only yours! :-) haha

    UPDATE

    If you win the give away, it will be $2300 in APR PARTS, instead of just a K04 Kit!!!

  20. 07-19-2012 02:52 PM #20
    By the way, any APR PART is included.. clothing will not be included...

    Registration for raffle will go from 10am to 1pm so get there, get you and your car checked in. Make sure the car is clean, it will be parked by the others for people to walk around and view (EVEN IF ITS STOCK)

    Guys and Gals,

    I really just wanted to thank everybody who showed up today! It was a fantastic turnout! Way better then I has EVER in a million years expected for our first show! I am working on making this a yearly event! I am sure that won't be a problem! We had ATLEAST 65 VW/AUDI's plus all the exotic cars!!! It was a true pleasure to have all of you there! I hope everybody had a good time!

    Congratulations to the winner of the raffle! I will see you when you get your parts installed!

    I also wanted to say thank you for the patience with us for the people who purchased things today! Our parts guy was in the hospital and the parts manager was away on vacation! I think things still rolled pretty smooth though!

    To all of those who we kind of had to park in the back I apologize, hopefully next year we will have that field paved and we can have a lot more room! We are growing EXTREMELY fast as a dealership, so I am hoping that can get done!

    I hope everybody enjoyed the food and beverages, and again I really appreciate everybody who came out! We have probably a total of 80-100 TOTAL cars, including the exotics! And well over 200 people who were at the show! It was truly my pleasure to have you all there!

    Oh and by the way, sorry for all the last names I messed up!! :iono:


    Post whatever pictures you have of the show!!!
