Thank you, Orange County Lexus Owners!

As we celebrate our first anniversary in beautiful Mission Viejo, I wanted to take a moment to extend my sincere gratitude to the many wonderful people we’ve met and gotten to know these past months.   As clients and friends of the dealership, your support and patronage have meant a tremendous amount to the entire Park Place team.

Since opening our doors, it’s been our single-minded goal to deliver a whole new level of service excellence to Orange County.  It’s our belief that an owner of a world-class automobile should receive world-class treatment.  This means knowledgeable sales professionals who take the time to really understand your needs.  An extensive selection of new and high quality pre-owned vehicles from which to choose.  Expert automotive service, performed with integrity and at very competitive prices. 

Community involvement is also a core value of the Park Place organization.  This past year, we’ve had the privilege of lending our time, talents, resources and facilities to such worthy causes as Mission Hospital, Capistrano Unified School District, Tesoro High School Athletics, the Assistance League of Capistrano Valley and the Orange Coast Art House.  Thank you for allowing us to support you in this special way.

We look forward to a great 2009, and to continuing to serve you, our valued clients.  Please do not hesitate to let us know how we can be your Lexus Experts in Excellence today and in the year ahead.

Warm regards,
