Art Gamblin MotorsArt Gamblin Motors is pleased to announce an image upgrade to their Chevrolet and Buick dealership in Enumclaw.  This remodel will consist of integrating a new Chevrolet entry with new interior flooring and finishes.  A new drive-in Service Reception area will be constructed which will allow service customers to keep out of the wind and rain when bringing in their cars for maintenance and repair.

Gamblin reports that this new look aligns with Chevrolet dealerships across the country.  It promotes a new clean brand image by incorporating aluminum composite materials on the outside of the building with consistent colors and finishes on the inside of  the building.

The owner, Alan Gamblin says, “This undertaking is a big investment, but Chevrolet has a bonus program to reimburse our dealership.  With our Chevy sales up 66% this year we anticipate a full return on our investment over the next four years of the program.  Most people don’t realize that we built this building almost 25 years ago.  Because a lot of thought and planning took place 25 years ago when we built the building, we will be able to continuing to service and sell vehicles during the remodel without any inconvenience to our customers.”

Construction for the update starts the week of October 17th and will take four months to complete.  The contract was awarded to a commercial contractor, Donovan Brothers of Auburn.  Art Gamblin Motors expressed their thanks to the City of Enumclaw for being so helpful with this project.

When you think of Buick vehicles you tend to think of a typical compact car. However the 2012 Buick Regal GS is definitely more than your average car. The newest sport sedan is just coming off a thrilling weekend taking first at the Silver State Classic Challenge, which takes on a 90 mile course down Nevada’s Highway 318. The 2012 Buick Regal GS finished with a time of 45 minutes and averaged 119 MPH, beating out 34 others in its class. The new Buick Regal GS is well stocked with a 270 HP, 295-lb-ft turbocharged four cylinder engine and tops out at 154 MPH. It would be hard to lose a race with a car like that! The car is an all-around satisfaction. Bill Rietow, the Regal’s lead development engineer says that ‘the car runs smoothly, quietly, and cool.’ Yes, this car is anything but average. Sounds like a great vehicle that releases this fall.

Save on Insurance with Chevrolet and Buick Through Metlife

Art Gamblin Motors was chosen by Chevrolet and Buick to pilot a test marketing program, in order to see the program’s viability before being launched across the nation.
The Chevrolet’s insurance initiative program targets the second largest expenditure for an automobile: insurance. From July 6, 2011 through September 6, 2011, anyone living in Washington or Oregon purchasing a new Chevrolet or Buick from Gamblin will receive one year’s worth of automobile insurance through MetLife Auto & Home. General Motors is paying for this coverage regardless of driving record. The customer’s only requirement is to have a valid driver’s license. Alan Gamblin said, “this is an unbelievable value for all our customers. It can save families, like my own,  over $2,000. We are glad that we have been chosen to participate in this program.”
So far the response has been overwhelming. It does not cost Art Gamblin Motors or the customer anything. In fact, customers who have insurance don’t have to participate, but many are adding the policy as a back up to their present coverage. The MetLife Auto policy received isn’t a cut rate policy, but it has coverage’s that every lender in the State of Washington require when financing a new vehicle. Already our sales are increased significantly because of this test program. We expect it to even get better as word gets out.

The Seattle Auto Show was a blast.  There was a great showing from all the major manufactures.  They even had the flying car from Harry Potter!  Cars don’t get much better than that.  Instead of posting a million pictures of what we thought was cool we brought our flip camera with us to show you around some of our favorites.  Of course we are biased and thought the GM vehicles were the best but there was some cool things that we liked.  Here is a top 10 list of the cars and things we liked about the 2010 Seattle Auto Show.

10.  Scion Booth – with the music pumping it was a cool area of the show

9. Nissan Leaf

8. Audi R8 Spyder

1. GM Drive Option – GM had a dozen or so vehicles in the parking garage where you could go out and test drive a vehicle that was in the auto show.  I thought this was a clever idea and it was very popular as there was a long line of people trying to get themselve behind a new GM vehicle.
