When is a used car not a used car? No, this is not the opening line of a joke, but rather a serious question. The obvious answer is, if it has been purchased before. What if we told you that it was possible to find a vehicle that blurs the line between new and used. Capital Eurocars has done just that with the introduction of the Capital Eurocars Used Car Confidence Plan, available at Capital Eurocars in Tallahassee.

Whether a friend of the Earth, or just cost conscious, fuel economy is
becoming a major consideration to consumers when car shopping. Some
may picture themselves in a small four door, or if they're savvy
industry watchers, some of the newer electric models coming out early
next year. While none of these will likely win you any late night drag
races, the fuel economy ratings make these the greenest rides on the
road, or do they?

The Dow Jones may beg to differ. In their estimation, if you really
care about fuel economy, you'll see your way to a European sport sedan
with a turbocharged engine and a fourteen speaker stereo. Or perhaps a
V8-powered roadster.

BMW Group was declared the 'most sustainable automobile company
worldwide.' The German luxury automaker won the title and has held it
for five years in a row now. In fact, BMW reminds us it is the only
automaker that has been listed on the Dow Jones Sustainability Index
since it was created in 1999.

The Dow Jones Sustainability Index considers the environmental and
social impact of a company's operations as a whole, including the
entire product lifecycle from design through the end of their
lifecycle. In a press release, Dow Jones shows BMW to be above the
auto industry average in every category it rates, including
Operational Eco-Efficiency, Climate Strategy, Carbon Strategy and the
environmental standards the company maintains for its suppliers.

Since the turn of the century, nearly 10 years ago, BMW has listed
sustainability among its core strategic principles, focusing on the
development of fuel-saving and alternative vehicle concepts, through to
clean production processes and green recycling practices.

Come test-drive a new BMW today and see why BMW is the better way to
be fuel conscious and why Capital BMW in Tallahassee is the better way
to buy.

Tallahassee, Fl - Capital Porsche announced that the all-new 2010 Porsche Panamera Gran Turismo will arrive this week and go on sale officially this weekend. 

The new Panamera is the first all-new Porsche in seven years and represents the renowned German sports car company's first four-door luxury sedan in its 61 year history.  The Panamera is now the fourth model line for Porsche and one of the most highly anticipated vehicles since the company announced it would build it more than four years ago.

"This is a historic car launch for Porsche and for Capital Porsche," said Crawford Atkins.  "With this sedan, Porsche is essentially creating a new vehicle concept that is a true sports car with four-doors, four seats, eight cylinders, seven gears and a multitude of new technical and design features.  It is truly unlike anything else on the road."

The new Panamera looks like a sports car with the low, aggressive silhouette of a coupe, while still providing four full size seats and very generous passenger and luggage space.  From a performance standpoint, this new Porsche sets new class standards.  For example, the 400-horsepower V8 engine offers an EPA estimated 16 mpg city and 24 mpg highway, while the 500 horsepower V8 twin turbo engine offers 15 mpg city and 23 mpg highway.  Both of these ratings are best-in-class.  Additionally, the 500-horsepower Panamera Turbo accelerates to 60 mph in just 4 seconds with a top test track speed of 188 mph.

"The most important task in designing, developing and building the Panamera was to combine Porsche's sports car DNA and its historic racing heritage with all the spaciousness and driving comfort of a supremely luxurious full-size sedan.  It is the alternative car for the premium customer and aims to be the clear segment leader in terms of performance, driving dynamics and efficiency," said Capital Porsche.

The Panamera model range includes the Panamera S, Panamera 4S and the previously mentioned Panamera Turbo. 

The MSRP for the Panamera S is $89,800; the Panamera 4S is $93,800 and Panamera Turbo is 132,600.

As the leaves begin to change, it's easy to see fall has arrived.  Another indication that fall is finally here, are the shipments of brand new Volvo's hitting the lot, like the redesigned 2010 Volvo C70. The refreshed C70's new front styling keeps it inline with the upcoming Volvo S60 sedan and, more importantly, provides a sleeker look. At the center of this change are the upswept headlights, which surround a carefully modified grille (Volvo's "iron mask") that protrudes ahead
of the rest of the bumper, not unlike the 2009 model. The black material surrounding the fog lights follows the lines established by the headlights.

Ultimately, the combination of safety and comfort you've come to expect from Volvo, with the beauty that Italian design firm Pininfarina is known for, brings together the 2010 Volvo C70 in a synergy that is as refreshing to experience as the vehicle itself is to drive. With wrap around changes like redone LED taillights - enough, we think, to set apart the 2010 Volvo C70 from its predecessors, and the convertible's slick interior, make the new Volvo C70 a vehicle that must be experienced to believe.

To get your exclusive look at the newly redesigned 2010 Volvo C70, come to Capital Volvo and see why Volvo is the better way to experience life and Capital Volvo of Tallahassee is the better way to buy.
