Special Online Event Sale Honored Top Lexus Dealers

ATLANTA – Manheim Milwaukee and Lexus Financial Services teamed up to thank their loyal dealers with an exclusive Online Event Sale and Dealer Appreciation event at Milwaukee’s Harley-Davidson Museum on Aug. 26. 

 

 

 

All Lexus franchise dealers, top 100 Lexus buyers, top 50 Toyota buyers and select highline buyers were invited to participate in the event. In addition to access to the special Online Event Sale, guests who attended the half-day event enjoyed an assortment of refreshments, received complimentary museum admission tickets and were invited to a post-sale reception.

 

 

 

“Manheim Milwaukee is one of Lexus’ largest sale locations, so we felt that it would be the perfect time and place to give our top buyers a special opportunity to buy premium inventory,” said Ralph Fisco, national remarketing manager, Lexus Financial Services. “Our business wouldn’t be successful without the support of our dealer network across the nation. We wanted to acknowledge our appreciation of their ongoing commitment and trust in the Lexus brand.”

 

 

 

More than 170 dealers participated in the online event or attended festivities at the museum. Manheim Milwaukee and Lexus Financial Services felt the love in return as 100 percent of the units sold – including almost half to Lexus franchise dealers. 

 

 

 

“This was a fun event for both the Manheim team as well as for our fantastic Lexus partners,” said Dennis Worthy, general manager, Manheim Milwaukee. “It allowed us to show some of our top customers how much we value their business. The positive sale results we earned just go to show how much the market appreciates such a fine brand of automobile.”
