6 Maseratis for sale and 24 loaners, right?

I grew up about 10 minutes from there. I love the placement of that dealership right next to Ollie’s Bargain Outlet and across from the slowly dying Kmart shopping center.

I’m a little surprised to see them leaving the more plebeian stuff like the Chevy on the lot. I’d have thought they’d get that stuff off to auction ASAP after taking it in.

I want to meet the person that traded a 2016 Impala in on a brand new Maserati.

They also have a 2016 Cruze - and that Impala is no newer than 2014, I’m pretty sure—

Remember that they kept the last gen Impala in production as the Impala Limited for fleet sales. That may be an ex-rental car that was bought from Hertz or something. I like to think that someone won the lottery and traded in the shiny new rental special they just bought.

Yeah, a winning lottery ticket is what I was guessing, too (or a big inheritance). Reality is that the dealer probably bought the car from Hertz to fill the lot, but it’s more fun to think of a lottery winner—

Impala Limited - basically, GM kept the old Impala around from 2014-2016 for fleet sales. They’ve done that with the Malibu in the past, too.

Just trying to class-up the surrounding area, I guess... not sure how well that’s working, as there was a really beat-up RV parked literally in the center of the Ollie’s parking lot next door.
Amusingly, that used to be a Maserati-Infiniti dealer, until they moved the Infiniti operation to a new, independent facility.

Or move them to a more appropriate lot. The dealer is part of a larger network, though their only “lower” brand is Toyota.

A long time ago, that also used to be the Jaguar dealer. Now they have that Jaguar/Land Rover dealer up by the turnpike entrance. I moved to the area in 94, long before they were selling Maseratis there. Are you a fellow LV Oppo, or were you just passing through?

I forgot about that! That changed quite a while ago it seems.
I’m an LV Oppo, though that may be changing in a month (though, I’ll always be an LV Oppo at heart).

Well good luck wherever you end up. I moved to NC for 5 years, but now I’m back in the valley. The Lehigh Valley is a pretty great place, and if you leave you might be surprised to find it pulling you back.

I won’t be going too far - south central PA - however, I have no doubt I’ll be back here frequently.
