Jan. 26, 2011 - PRLog -- NEWPORT BEACH, CA – Aston Martin Newport Beach has been named the #1 Dealer in the U.S., having retailed the largest volume of new and used Aston Martins in 2010. This recognition comes off the heels of winning the After Sales Shop of the Year Award earlier in the year.
“Our commitment to this business and passion for the brand has proven successful, and we are delighted to accept this prestigious honor,” states James Peacock, General Manager of Aston Martin Newport Beach. “We’ve always believed ourselves to be the top dealer, and now we have the numbers to prove it” he adds. This is the first time a U.S. Aston Martin dealer has been awarded both distinctions.

The top dealer award is given annually to the retailer with the most retail sales in the year. Both new and used sales are counted to identify the top performing dealership in the U.S. The After Sales Shop of the Year Award is given to the dealership that most exemplifies the Aston Martin Mission Statement in all aspects of customer care. Criteria include: Customer Care, Fixed Right First Time Scores, Parts Department stocking level management, Sales and Service rolling CSI scores and most importantly the recommendation of the regional management team. James Peacock explains, “We have in place a great team, loyal clientele, and an extraordinary brand; all of which contribute to these successes. We look forward and strive to achieve this again in 2011”
