North Scottsdale Acura is part of a $100 MILLION dealership!

Checked out this mongo dealership a little down the road from me. It's where I've been taking my TL since I moved here. Opened not too long ago for a small cost of $100,000,000. Great service, cheap oil changes....but it's part of a dealership built by United Auto Group that includes the following brands under ONE roof:

Porsche
BMW
Mini
Land Rover
Audi
ASTON MARTIN
Jaguar
Volvo
Acura
Volkswagon

There's also a Penske Racing musuem (with 9 cars from Roger's collection) and a starbucks that serves real food. A $10,000 per rental banquet hall, a Hertz rental onsite, and a trophy room playing Speed TV on a 50" plasma screen 24/7.

The best part? It has two tracks on site. One is a land rover off road course full of ups, downs, and even a part where go you under a bridge through a waterfall submerging the car in a nice deep puddle.

The other is very cool. It's a small race track! It's about a 1/2 mile track thats all curves that races around for those buyers wanting to see how the cars will handle.....above it, is the mezzanine to the cafe and you can sit outside and watch the cars on both tracks because there's a portion to the mezzanine that goes out into the middle of the track so you get a birds eye 360 degree view of the action.

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! I highly encourage any AZ folk to check it out when you've got a couple of hours to kill.

Maybe it's just me, but Volkswagon doesn't fit into that grouping. Sounds like a really cool place though.

They also sell Audi & Porsche. It's very common to see a VW, Audi and Porsche under one roof. In fact my new Audi A6 is financed on VW paper
