  • Showroom and Tell: The 2014 Range Rover Sport

    We hear a lot of people on Twitter dreaming about the day they get a Range Rover. People vow that one day they will own a Range Rover, or that the next car they whip will definitely be a Range Rover. Having plenty of Rovers for ourselves to test drive, we understand where they’re coming…

  • Zero to Sixty Will Be Quicker in the Ford Lightweight Concept

    Lightweight cars are a dime a dozen nowadays, particularly in the high-performance super car arena. Mainstream brands are starting to obsess over their lineup’s waistlines now, too. We can guess that more stringent fleet fuel economy standards have done a lot to motivate automakers into trimming some fat. However, there’s also the classic “Because we…

  • Real People Matter: Autopark Chrysler Jeep

    Purchasing a new vehicle ranges a gamut of emotions and experiences. Whether it is positive or negative, the entire process depends upon the people at the dealership. The Leith family has always encouraged absolute integrity, which is how our motto “the name you can trust” naturally developed. This is particularly true at Autopark Chrysler Jeep…

  • Leith Fully Detailed: The Knee-Slappers at Leith, Inc. Authorized Mercedes-Benz Sales and Service

    Sound the trumpets, and set the lights to strobe: Leith Fully Detailed is focusing today on our Mercedes-Benz dealer in Raleigh: Leith, Inc. Authorized Mercedes-Benz Sales and Service. Why does it have such a long name? Well, it’s a funny story with a heck of a punchline—legal reasons—but who hasn’t heard the one about trademarks…

  • Best in Class: An Un4gettable Test Drive in the BMW 4 Series

    Last Friday, Leith BMW hosted the Un4gettable Test Drive event, a great opportunity for customers to visit the center and get behind the wheel of the BMW 4 Series. Attendees were also given the chance to test-drive the competition, including cars from Audi, Lexus, and Mercedes-Benz. Our Best in Class post of the week is…

  • Showroom and Tell: 2015 Chrysler 200 C Sedan

    Showroom and Tell is typically a brief overview of a make and model that graces the lot – or, more often, the showroom floor – at one of the Leith Cars dealerships. With more than thirty dealerships that represent a dozen brands, there’s quite a lot of ground to cover. Our team seeks to highlight…

  • Zero to Sixty: The Delicate Tracing of Jaguar’s C-Type to F-Type

    For today’s Zero to Sixty video, we have a fairly British presentation of the lineage of Jaguar’s sports cars. Starting with the C-Type in the 1950s to the present day F-Type, we were delighted by the cinematography which was not overwrought and the dialogue which was not overwritten. We also appreciate the video’s selection of…

  • RPM: Leith Lincoln’s Reputation Precedes Itself

    As the oldest member of our family, Leith Lincoln knows the value of a good word. In the beginning, they were the only Leith dealership in Raleigh and they had to rely on word-of-mouth advertising to tell people about the name you can trust. That’s why we’re spotlighting them in today’s Real People Matter. This…

  • Leith Fully Detailed: Autopark Honda

    At Leith Cars, we dedicate each Monday to the series Fully Detailed: a look at what distinguishes our people from the competition. Let’s face it – for every brand of vehicle, there are multiple dealerships competing for your attention. They all offer the same vehicles, trims, features, and options; however, the history and culture at…

  • Best in Class: Honda’s Robot Apocalypse

    As the precursor to the weekend, Friday is straight-up magical. We’ve all worked a good week, accomplished a few things, learned a lot, and are now buttoning things off until Monday. Our contribution to that process is to hold an internal vote on which of our 30+ dealerships wrote the best blog post of the…
