| November Hot Cars! |
 |
The Hot Car List is a service that
LML provides its customers on a monthly basis to indicate the
best used car leasing deals in their market. These deals take
into account regional differences so next time you go to
auction, be sure to take this list!
There are plenty of
good programs that provide low payments for the consumer, even
with little or no money down; enough advance on selling price
to assist getting out of negative equity situations; and
profit potentials that are higher than in most new car deals.
Although the vehicles on our Hot Cars list may not be
reflective of an individual dealer's inventory, we strive to
make the list representative of vehicles generally available
at auction and/or those typically found on many lots
throughout the country.
For more information about Hot Cars in your area or for a
listing of the last 6 months, contact your LML Account
Executive!

| Technology: Leading the Way to
Profitability |
 |
| Though most dealerships would agree that
profitability reigns supreme, it's still a numbers game --
your primary goal every month is to sell more cars. But in the
monthly quest to make your numbers, you could be leaving some
money on the table, especially in the grayer areas of Special
Finance.
Take the Payment Call, the "green light" to proceed with a
sub-prime sale. Have you ever wondered if you were giving the
lender too much information - to the point that you actually
could be limiting your prospect's choices and your profit
potential?
