Come See the Exotic Cars in Our Showroom
As many of you know, Prestige Imports has more exotic cars in our showroom than any dealer in West Michigan. That's because we're willing to sell certain special vehicles on consignment.
We often have more than a quarter million dollars worth of exotics on hand. Our current collection includes a Lamborghini Diablo, a Maserati Quattroporte, and a Ferrari 308 GTS Quattrovalvole.
In the recent past we have sold exotics such as a 2003 Lamborghini Murcielago, a 2006 Porsche 911, and a 2009 Nissan GT-R.
Exotic cars are not a practical choice for
everyone. But if you're one of them, and you're looking to buy or sell an exotic, please call Joe or Phil Licari.
But even if you're not in the market for such cars, it's fun to see these beautiful cars up close and dream a little. Stop by when you're in the neighborhood and take a look around our showroom.

Dear ,
Summer is an important time to take good care of your car. One of the articles below tells how to fix scratches and dents. If you don't have the time, tools, or talent to do that, we can help. Just let us know and we can bring in a skilled specialist to work on your vehicle in our shop.
We also offer detailing. One of our customers recently sold his used Volvo for well over book value. He's sure that having the car detailed once each year provided a good return on his investment.
Our Economic Stimulus Program will end soon on August 31. Call now to take advantage of 5 free services and a free lunch at Uccello's. See the coupons below for details.
