2012 Kansas City Auto Show: Certified Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz

A few keen auto show attendees noticed that we had something rather unique in our Mercedes-Benz section. No, it wasn't the SLR McLaren or SLS AMG. Tucked by the booth was a 2008 Mercedes-Benz E350 4MATIC sedan.

Why would we have a pre-owned vehicle at a new car focused auto show? To highlight the benefits of buying Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned vehicles of course! In our video with Julie, a Mercedes-Benz product specialist, she highlighted several of the benefits of purchasing a pre-owned Mercedes-Benz.

A few of the items included:
  • Special interest rates for certain certified vehicles.
  • Rigorous quality check and inspection process.
  • Extended warranty coverage.

2012 Kansas City Auto Show: Interview with Kevin Arburn


On Sunday, as the auto show was winding down, I had the opportunity to sit down and chat with Kevin Arburn, an officer of the Kansas City chapter of The Mercedes-Benz Club of America. 

The local chapter has been around for 40 years, and is just now approaching 300 members locally. They engage in driving events, charities, and owners events on a monthly basis. If you are interested in joining, you can find out more information at www.mbca.org . 

When I asked Kevin what his favorite car at the show was, he replied that "It's hard to ignore the new SLS (AMG) Roadster."
