The all-new Lexus CT200h will be arriving at our dealership the end of March....Make an appointment to test drive one soon before they are sold out! Great car and starting around 29K is unreal...I have personally driven this new hybrid in the Lexus line up and have to say it's going to be a hot seller, especially with gas prices heading towards 4.00 a gallon.

Back from Detroit

2011-01-22T09:34:00.000-05:00

Well I'm back from Detroit, and let me tell you that was the best Auto Show I have ever been to. All the manufacturers that were present did an excellent job with their displays, but I have to say I think Lexus stole the show. I have posted a slide show of all the photos I took at the show in the upper right hand corner of the blog for you to see.

Heading to Motor City for the Auto Show today!

2011-01-19T09:32:00.000-05:00

Heading to Detroit this afternoon for the Detroit Auto Show. This will be my first time at the Show and I'm excited to see all the manufacturers have to offer in the coming year, as well as what's new for Lexus. I'll be doing some competitive training on Thursday, and then heading home that evening, so check back for photos and updates.

Lexus RX350 AWD

The snow is flying here in Northeast Ohio, and with all the municipalities cutting back you can see the difference in road conditions during morning and afternoon commutes. What does that mean? It means with aggressive lease programs and low finance rates, it's never been a better time to consider the Lexus RX 350 AWD. It boasts an industry leading fuel economy at 18/25 mpg average. Features like a back-up camera, heated and cooled leather seats, rain-sensing windshield wipers, are just a few of the luxuries you can expect in your RX 350! Add Navigation and wondering what street you need to turn down next will be a thing of the past! Stop in at Lexus of Akron/Canton and test drive one today!

Lexus Aims for Sharper Global Image

2011-01-10T23:10:00.000-05:00

The Lexus CT 200h hybrid, which is expected to go on sale next spring, is the first result of the new push into progressive luxury, said Schlicht. Fine-tuning the car's suspension to provide a sporty ride -- despite mustering only 134 hp -- underscores the priorities.

Progressive luxury will be spelled out in future models through:

-- More expressive, daring designs.

-- Aggressive application of hybrid technology.

-- Advanced use of onboard telematics.

Lexus sales climbed 8 percent to 201,769 vehicles through November, putting it on pace to best BMW in car sales

Stay tuned for more information on this great new vehicle by Lexus, I will be posting pics from the Detroit Auto Show later this month. If there is are any models you would like specific information on you can leave a comment or contact me through email.
